Apologies if I've missed anyone. All welcome to come & play!

Too much too young - The Specials?

I must catch up with the two tone programme, when / what channel was it on?

Well worth the wait Roguey.

Ghost Town - Specials

Madness - The Prince
did someone else do it in the 70s?

@Rogue1001MNer

I thought the line was "All the clubs have been closed down"?

Bbc2.

All guesses correct.

Honey, the madness one was 70s. 79.

Carnage so glad your gig was great.

A hungover good morning to you all

Thank you Roguey, just watched it, very interesting, hope you start feeling human again soon 🍷 😵‍💫.

I don't remember the cover for Tears of a Clown??

It was the Beat

Ah.

It was.

My bad.

Have an extra point.

Deducts 10 points from @IanOsenfrote for publicly shaming me

Correct N2K

I remember The Beat cover of Tears of a clown now! They also did a cover of Can't get used to losing you which I remember buying the 7 inch single at the time.
Also apologies for not spelling Gangsters properly!

Aw, I love both of those covers by the Beat 😍 (fond memories of my yoof)…
I also love Mirror in the bathroom.

If I may try one, anyone recognise the line

"Watch while the Queen in one false move, turns herself into a pawn"

May be a bit obscure, but it's from one of my favourite artists.

Thanks, sorry I didn't go all the way back through the thread, I'll do better next time.

@ConcernedSchoolStaff Don't worry, we've all done it!

Dig your grave
70s

She’s got a cousin
In fact she’s got bout a dozen
She’s got one in the oven
But it’s nothing to do with me

90s

I hear your name whispered on the wind
It's a sound that makes me cry
80s

Since I met you, I've begun to feel so strange
Every time I speak your name
70s

90’s - She’s electric - Oasis

Could it be I’m falling in love.
Jakki Graham ? David Grant ? Not 100% sure on the artists

Argh sorry, can’t remember the 70s artist who sang it 😊

Waiting for a star to fall - Boy meets Girl.

(Carnage I think it’s both of those artists)

Ah, didn’t do too bad after all 😁 thanks @Honeyroar .
I wouldn’t have got the boy meets girl one.
