I'd never heard of it or Oasis, so I listened to the song. Sorry, branmuffin, but I found nothing memorable about it or the group. Keep on enjoying it, though. You probably wouldn't like the songs I sing along to.

I actually know this song, but only because some Korean girl I met at a bar in Seoul took me to a noraebang (karaoke joint) and wanted to sing it.... that was the first time I'd ever heard it before. That was in 2007. The radio stations I listen to would never, ever, ever play that song...

and if they did I would stop listening to them.

on the other hand, I have heard Wake Me Up Before you Go-Go... more times than I'd care to. But had no idea or interest who sang it.

The North-Central? Geographically, you are not incorrect. However, I have never heard of such a region. I am originally from Wisconsin, and have always considered it a part of the Midwest.

The concept of the Midwest in the US relates to the middle and west of the US prior to the Louisiana Purchase and westward expansion. I find the antiquated misnomer incredibly annoying since I come from Nebraska which is also usually not considered part of the Midwest despite the fact that my home is ~60 miles due north of the geographic center of the contiguous US. Wyoming is usually described as part of the West or the Mountains and Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, etc are called the Great Plains or Heartland. Of course, such terms are subjective.

It's true the Midwest can mean different things, but the Census Bureau divides the US into four regions - Northeast, South, Midwest, and West. Those four are further divided into nine divisions. Wisconsin is in the East North Central Division of the Midwest Region. Nebraska is in the West North Central Division of the Midwest, and Wyoming is in the Mountain Division of the West. (I thought that would make a good quiz so I just posted one asking for the names of all the regions and divisions.)

Miss Muffet couldn't have eaten Whey, she would have drank it. Curds are the solids and whey is the liquid in curds and whey.

Curds and whey is another name for cottage cheese. One doesn't eat the curds and then drink the whey that is left, it is all eaten together.

One of the hints is factually incorrect. Technically, the UK isn't made of 4 countries, but 3 countries(England, Scotland and Wales) and a province(Northern Ireland). This is because Northern Ireland never has been a country and never will be. The UK's official government lists it as a Province.
