Pop Pourri: have a go at these pop star anagrams
If a pop star anagram knocked on your door, you'd be horrified. Peter Andre's face, 5 Seconds Of Summers' hair, Crazy Frog's body. No thanks.
However, if you saw a pop star anagram on Twitter, you would be delighted. At least, I hope that's what happened when I foisted a game called Pop Pourri on my Twitter followers this afternoon.
Why don't you have a go too? Here are five pop star anagrams to solve. They are all acts that had a song in the UK top 40 singles chart at Halloween 1989. The first, third and last are solo artists, and the other two are groups. The number of letters of the acts' name is in brackets.
Good luck, and no cheating. I'll post the answers as a comment on this blog post in the next couple of hours.
DECLINE AIR BALLS (7, 8)
ETHICAL TORY? I'D SUCKLE IT (9, 6, 3, 3)
JOLLY BILE (5, 4)
NIX A NOB VIGIL (6, 2, 1, 3)
STIFLE A DIN, LASS (4, 10)
Further Fats: Ardently foul, wet flies: do my angry anagrams, you fart-hole (2010)
Further Fats: 5 great new dance hits from January 1989 (2019)
