Another word game - twenty questions

After yesterday's Twenty Hints on one of the threads, I was reminded of that old favourite Twenty Questions.
Rules reminders:-
Someone thinks of something/someone and posts a very minimal clue - just the category (person, film title, object or whatever)
Others post questions, to which the answer can only be "Yes" or "No" or guesses of who/what they are thinking of.
Questions are limited to twenty.
If someone guesses correctly within the twenty, they choose the next subject, or nominate someone else to do so.
If not, the answer is given and another subject chosen, either by whoever posted the unguessed one or by someone else who has been nominated.

I'll start it off - A person.

It was (as far as I'm aware) only on an album for the most well known singer of the three, it got to 6 in the UK album charts. The other singers got to 9 and 18 in other countries.

This is not a well known song, but if you can narrow it down it is well documented -- and I will help.

Fell asleep in the chair,

Wobblybits Tue 08-Nov-16 17:04:12

No, may have been recorded by British artist but the 3 I am aware of are not. Unless of course you include our Ukulele group who played it last night.

Ana Tue 08-Nov-16 16:58:42

Think Wobbly's given up and gone off to do something useful! grin

nanaK54 Tue 08-Nov-16 15:23:57

Decisions, decisions get on with work admin, do the ironing or play twenty questions....

A British singer?

Wobblybits Tue 08-Nov-16 13:54:16

Any one up for a game.

Just for a change a song title.

shandi6570 Mon 07-Nov-16 20:54:45

Okay, I'm signing off for tonight so will cancel my clue and use it another time. Goodnight everyone, sleep happy moon

shandi6570 Mon 07-Nov-16 19:34:12

Back again, anyone want to play?

Clue: object - vegetable based

Wobblybits Mon 07-Nov-16 18:07:40

I'm also out for the next 3 hours or so.

Bellanonna Mon 07-Nov-16 17:46:48

Just off for a flu jab, or I'd offer

shandi6570 Mon 07-Nov-16 17:44:38

Fantastic although I can't believe it, I have always been bad at this game and yet on GN I seem to have a magic touch.

I really can't do a clue at the moment, not going to have another evening meal like last night, what with trying to guess, eat my meal and answer all OH's questions and comments it's amazing I ate at all.

Can someone else take over for now? If not I'll return later.
