    Broadway - "the Great White Way"

    Trey Parker and Matt Stone, creators of South Park and that Mormon musical, were nominated for an Oscar but didn't win it. That's all they are missing.

    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    Well, I'll be damned. The trump card strikes.

    Professional Cyclists

    Current World champion even. Very strange.

    Life In Prison

    Maybe I have to change my "pick no convicts" rule into "pick them one year later than you would normally do".

    Abby Lee Miller

    For some reason, a nigerian site knows all the recent news on Abby Lee Miller (though you could probably piece it all together from her numerous social media accounts): https://www.pulse.ng/lifestyle/womens-health/dance-moms-star-abby-lee-miller-says-shes-currently-doing-rehab-3-days-a-week-after/cgf5ren Final chemo session coming up, and then: rehab!

    Derby Dead Pool 2019

    So February has now had 31 hits - surely a record for that month. But still one hit short of January 2019.

    Minimalists (and other classical composers/musicians)

    Third hit for my theme team? Could be another ten day wait like for Kato Havas though.

    Irish body-building "legend" "Blue" Shinners suddenly dead at 57: https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/ireland/tributes-paid-following-death-of-limerick-bodybuilding-legend-909522.html Is it fair of me to put every body-builder in this thread? I say yes.

    Alex Trebek

    Heh, yes, you're right. Kind of confused the question/answer thing here.

    Alex Trebek

    Agreed, though he'll be lucky to make it that far.... (whatever lucky means in that case)

    Well, well, she has been recovering from a cancer-induced pelvic fracture for the past six months: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6778223/Olivia-Newton-John-reveals-shes-recovering-cancer-induced-pelvic-fracture-six-months.html Hmmm...

    Guess The Song

    No, remember, only two hits in the UK - only two charted songs actually! And even though I described the artist as a legendary songwriter, that second hit was not written by him! Also, I made a small but telling edit in the initial post.

    Guess The Song

    The Norway connection was indeed the big clue - black metal.... Okay, so I can use the one MPFC made me think of: This UK no. 1 was the second (and final) hit in the UK for this legendary songwriter - 28 years after the first one, a UK no. 4. Both songs were in soundtracks.

    Guess The Song

    Heh okay, Venom - Countess Bathory.

    Guess The Song

    Really not my field, but: Venom - Poison?
