Right then, you little Pascals - time for you to get your thinking caps on! You guys have had it too easy for too long! Can you identify the artists below and work out what connects their songs? This is the way.

Some tough ones this week. They're all great tunes though...

12. Chatty boss gets too close to the fire.

11. Self-confessed bitch.

10. Kept in an ample jar.

9. Cheering on the dregs of society.

8. Sounds like a bucket that needs more sun.

7. The king goes Bare.

6. I'm only dancing, but I'd like to get to know you well.

5. Swell Maps' second.

4. Sad chimes.


3. Charles Weedon Westover did a lot of running back in the day.


2. She was the only thing not on sale.

      Right person, not quite the right song. Del was 'Runaway'; 'Runaround Sue' was Dion

      Del did also go with Runaround Sue. She was a right 'un.

      That's half the link. A particular type of town...

      Small town?

      Don't think they're there CC. I'm chuffed I got the link as only a month ago I couldn't even sit in one spot for more than a few minutes without getting distressed. Here I am now getting the link on Saturday Snapshots! Think it's safe to say... I'm back!

      I am also frantically looking for Jimmy & Co. How the hell did I miss them? I'll tell you how... they join the words together as one and doofus here didn't think to search for the one word option...

    Late due to an ongoing plumbing emergency. Well done on getting the link Alyson.

    9 - Hurray for the Riff Raff
    6 - First name is presumably John, is the surname anything to do with the popular Howard Jones hit?

    Ah - when I searched for small town songs her name came up but didn't really fit the clue did it. She has a quirky distinctive look. Very cute.

      That was supposed to be a reply to your reply above about the band. Still not totally sharp yet then!

    5. Swell Maps' second album was Jane From Occupied Europe. Is that what this lot called themselves?
