Fans absolutely nailed the 'easy' Nik Kershaw questions — scoring 100% on his genre and misattributed songs — yet completely collapsed on his albums, with every single player wrongly picking 'The Riddle' over the correct 1984 debut 'Human Racing', a 0% success rate that reveals a classic case of his biggest hit overshadowing his own back catalogue.
Despite 'I Won't Let the Sun Go Down on Me' being Nik Kershaw's highest-charting UK single of 1984, only 33% of fans got it right — while 67% wrongly crowned 'Wouldn't It Be Good', proving that chart history and fan memory are two very different things.
