lyrics quiz

In case anyone hasn't seen this one yet... the idea is to name the artist and song.

I'm pretty sure that everything in this first section has been in the mainstream pop charts, and I've not picked obscure lyrics that only happen in the fade, so I wouldn't be totally amazed if someone of my listening generation were able to get all of these...

1. Just you wait till I get you home

2. No money man could buy my love

3. Stick / Or twist / The choice is yours

4. I've got you to help me forgive

5. Ignore the computer, we're locked on course

On the other hand, I would be amazed if anyone managed to get all of these...

6. Looking for a little bit of late night twisting / Hear the muffled thumping of a big sound system

7. Can I walk it? / Yes you can / Can I walk it? / Yes you can

8. It wasn't me that you outsmarted

9. I wear the gear, yeah, I wanna wear / I don't care, dear, go 'head and stare

10. If I split like light refracted / I'm only off to wander / Across that moonlit mile

Argh! I think the first one is the Pet Shop Boys, but I can't remember the rest of the song - so now I have one line going round and round in my head!!! I used to dress like Chris Lowe when I was a teenager - I thought he was the *coolest*

2. No money man could buy my love is Neneh Cherry's "Buffulo Stance"
