im quite shit at recalling lyrics but a few of these are familiar. the last lyric is saint etiennes "london belongs to me" from the fab "fox base alpha". the automatically sunshine one im not sure about, i do know the supremes had a song called "automatically sunshine" but cant recall the tune let alone the words. the bomb dropping one i thought could be from a heaven 17 song, but then i remembered a movie star themed tape someone once made for me which had a song, can`t remember the name or the artist, that i think had that lyric; someting to do with spencer tracey?

Simple reason mate, I'm just not very good with lyrics - I can't remember those of my fave songs for that matter, too much shit flying round my head I suppose.....

Right hopefully I can post this time :mad: here's some clues. 3 and 6 are by the same band who appeared on the same episode of 'The Tube' as no.2 If memory serves they were introduced from an underground gentlemans urinal.4 is probably the most successful act of the six here.

Franly, Hank, I'm not very much into that kind of Quizz... Preferred Martin's ones...

No offense, I hope ?

Now I don't write about music that much as I work for a info website...

Those were the days... Met a lot of bands, seen a lot of gigs, reviewed a lot of albums. But I guess, in this field, you wear out quite fast.

Ear is probably the most difficult organ to keep fully open...

You see, that's why I don't really give a try...

I like the quizzes when you can find the solution by making your brain work hard...

Here, that's not enough cos you got to know loads of songs lyrics...
