S"Actually I'm going to scrap that question as it's also a bit of a trick question and no one will get it. The answer is Mozart but that's only because a box set was released that contained 200 CDs and sales were so high of the box set that if you counted each CD in the box set separately then total number of CDs outsold everybody else. | |||

"Hope you don't mind if I pose a question Jenny? Inspired by Lisa Belle who will doubtless get this straight away... Which two top ten singles by Madness are cover versions? Incidentally 3 of their hits were cover versions
I think you're talking about one that didn't make the top ten, but I'm not one to argue with a former skinhead
Yes you're right, I was thinking of the song "madness" by Madness which was also a Prince Buster cover but it appears it wasn't actually a single at all!
I thought the same, but checked and...
Actually there was a third..although wasn't top 10 - they covered Scritti Politti's "Sweetest Girl" which got top 40 (with a video directed by Herbie Hancock)... - Madness nerd alert
So strictly speaking; 4th! Pedant alert..."didnt they cover a Simon & Garfunkel song? | |||
