      I’m rubbish at dates, but I know Bowie died early 2016 so I’m guessing 2015.

      Lazurus is an amazing track, one of his very best. Everyone (by which I mean critics) raves about the album and I get it’s an incredible artistic and technical achievement, but it’s not ‘listenable’ like Heathen or The Next Day. But Lazurus is right up there.

      And you know I love Nothing But Thieves 😊

      I haven’t heard of any of the bands formed that year. I mean, Frank Carter rings a bell, but…

        Years before a friend played me ‘Changes’, saying This guy’s going to be great.
        No chance, I said

    Before reading Michael Murray’s guess, my guess was also 2015.

    My immediate thought was 2014. Purely based on Bowie’s Lazarus.

    Is it okay to say 2015 since that’s what the majority is going with?

    The only thing I knew from any of the clues was Stressed Out. I remember that being around 2014 or 2015, around the time I started my current job, but I couldn’t narrow it down more than that. I wasn’t wrong, though.
