Is CUT different from TURKEY/SHEEP?

Yes.

Do I pick one to cut, AND one to Turkey?

And yes, if you choose to.

Looks good on my end.

[Armandillo]

Thank you. Sorry I didn't get it up sooner, I'm pretty bad at technology, sadly.

[sillymonkey]

Armandillo - I ran into issues with GoogleDocs, so I submitted via private message to you.

[Armandillo]

Form should be fixed and NOT require a login anymore.

I swear - one of these days, I will figure you people out. Major Tom was my first choice, but I thought, "Oh, no, that will sheep - either that or Jenny's number," Wrong as usual.

Really, all of you have heard of the Kingston Trio. I thought that this was a young crowd.

[ElendilPickle]

That's what I get for going with one of my favorite songs, instead of one of the unused answers.

[Armandillo]

Q2:Name a Tom Jones song that reached Top 15 of the charts in the United States.

Apparently, there are not many Tom Jones fans out there, given the numerous unused answers and, well, you'll see...

What an appropriate choice by me to rename the SHEEP a TURKEY! YIKES! Giant shakeup there. But don't fret! There are plenty more surprises in store . . .
(I will be revealing 2 questions a day, in case you were wondering)

[patkav]

I swear - one of these days, I will figure you people out. Major Tom was my first choice, but I thought, "Oh, no, that will sheep - either that or Jenny's number," Wrong as usual.

Same.

SCIENCE!

[dinghammer]

WRONG - 19 POINTS (Turkey 14 + 5)
dinghammer - "Mama Told Me Not to Come" unfortunately charted in the U.K. but not in the U.S., sorry.

And it was 20 years too late! I was hoping he did the original too -- I just couldn't think of who did, so I thought it might have been possible. I thought of It's Not Unusual a little while after submitting, then She's a Lady 5 or 6 minutes after the deadline passed. Nowhere to go but up!

Same here.

EDIT: And I just noticed this:

SINGLETON! Green, Green Grass of Home
groovitude

That song has come up at least 20 times in the Pointless app. I really, really, really should have known that one.

[mennoknight]

Cannot believe I forgot about Daughter of Darkness. That is a stone cold jam.

I *just* went through this in the last TD!

Can we stop now? I'm on the podium. I don't think I've ever been on the podium. The view is amazing.
