Let's Dance!
10. My latest car has no gearstick and runs on flower power... but it wins the race and holds the secret to getting me a better job.

8. Campaigners get horny and homeless.
7. Carter is insane.
6. Adore + C - A = radio flyer.
5. Oystercatchers get up very early to play around.
4. Frank smokes a joint with Strangers in the Night, headphones on.
3. Not Robert, not Level 42... sounds like a man though...
2. David Koresh vs. Satan.
1. Duck learns to pick a pocket or two on the red eye.

Delete10 is U2 but the song? Probably Beautiful Day
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha. No.
DeleteNo 3 is Amanda Palmer
ReplyDeleteWasn't Robert Palmer and sounds like A Man - Guessing the song is the Level $2 part but struggling.
DeleteAsk C.
DeleteIs it 'Runs In The Family' with a nod to Level 42's 'Running In The Family'?
DeleteSurprised Alyson hasn't got 6. We might need CC for 5.
ReplyDeleteNo 6 - A starter for 10. Cdore/Drode/Coder?? - Something to do with a little red bike
ReplyDeleteI must be missing something obvious - A 70s female singer/songwriter I'm guessing.
DeleteCharlie Dore?
DeletePilot Of The Airwaves (is the only one I know, and it does fit the clue)
So obvious now and nothing to do with a little red bike!
DeleteThe Pearlfishers - Up With the Larks
ReplyDeleteRe. 10 song - I don't know any of their tracks so have just been looking them up to see what it could be - so, what holds the secret to getting you a better job? .. Why, Fishes Eyes of course! If not that, then maybe Penguins!
ReplyDeleteI only know one song by this band and it's none of them. Some of the words in that last sentence might help though.
DeleteAh, so you don't want a better job as an underwater zookeeper? Well, I cheated but thanks to your clue above, think it must be 'It's Not What You Know', which I don't know!
