Apologies if I have missed anyone. Let me know if you spot any omissions 😊

Correct shiny

But someone already said wild boys? And it is op, isn't it?

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf

Needtoknow that's wild boys by Duran Duran

It is. A nice easy one.

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf the first line is
Out on the tar plains
The glides are moving

They said there be snow at Christmas they said theeed be peace on earth

Male singer, possibly with letters J at start of name

Flea that's rick wakeman, isn't it? Or Greg lake. Greg lake, actually, not rick wakeman

@CoffeeBeansGalore

Greeting cards have all been sent The Christmas rush is through But I still have one wish to make A special one for you 70s

Not sure of the title but it's The Carpenters

Possibly called Merry Christmas darling

@midgebabe

I guesses WIld Boys but I was wrong. So I put WIld Boys up to gratify my need for Wild Boys.

Flea that’s I believe in father Xmas (HATE IT!)

Oh no, it's too late for complicated

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf

Oops, yes, Sat in Your Lap. No one seems to like that one. I sort of do.

Well, maybe just dock me a couple. Let's not be over the top

I just want some matchmakers.

I'm exhausted! I've never done so badly at university challenge

Aw, it’s so nice we’re all here together isn’t it?

(Might have over-indulged in the mulled 🍷 I’ll be telling you all I love you soon )

Hmmm. Lucky I'm in charge of the spreadsheet, eh!

Here’s a clue for the Duran one... 🚕

Yes. Lovely. And it's nearly your BIRTHDAY!!!!

Luff you Babooshka. 💕

Love you all ❤❤❤❤ (honey a bit less)

@shinynewapple2020 correct to the Carpenters 👍🎅

This is making my brain hurt ! Just stared for ages at one of Trophy's songs and when I finally got it I realised it had been guessed about two hours ago!

@Honeyroar

Here’s a clue for the Duran one... 🚕

A little yellow taxi? Sounds more like Joni Mitchell

@Honeyroar

Here’s a clue for the Duran one... 🚕

I'm guessing it's The Chauffeur

Not quite sure where the lyrics were ......
