3 songs, 1 year.
Name the artist, song AND year for the points….
Year 1:
I'm a man (a man) without conviction

And I need you more than ever

Try a little harder

Year 2:
Success has been so easy for you

But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

It's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake he's making

yr 3: Catch my soul, catch the very light
Hide the moment from my eager eyes
Though you've seen there, please, don't tell a soul
What you can't see, can't be very whole

Young Man

And the vineyards of Bordeaux

Yr 4: No matter when or where or who

You're shattered by the final frame of the movie scene
That generates your every aim

Gotta make you understand

Yr 5: The road was right, we must have read the signs wrong

The one you warned me all abut

Turning and returning to some secret place to hide
