I'd forgotten about these threads!

I was standing at the station
Being pounded by the rain

The theme is got by shiny north east musicians

The only outstanding issue is why AC:DC and Duran Duran get into that category

Rift it's not this one

I'm lying in the rain
But I never save bye bye

But I can't get that out of my head now !

Did anybody get number 3 - Alive and kicking Simple Minds?
@midgetastic thats Modern love - David Bowie.
@RiftGibbon thats Under your thumb - Godley and Crème

So also not

You're in the suburbs waiting for somewhere to go
I'm down here working on sone dumb show

5 and 10 still outstanding

You might need to “fish” for number 5

Brian Johnson obviously and I think maybe Andy Taylor ?

10cc ?

Nobody's right yet. I'll add the next bit..

....
So I chose the last compartment
Of a stationary train

Is it not under your thumb - Godley and Crene then?

Sorry Distant missed your post. Yes, it is!

No worries @RiftGibbon 🙂

Mother’s got her hairdo to her done
She says they’re too old for toys
(80s)

There comes w time to be free of the heart
i wanna be ready
ready to start
(90s)

@Honeyroar Pet Shop Boys - Suburbia

Correct for PSBs. That was quick!

I don't think this was in the charts, but fans will know...

And the sun dips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined

Blue silver - Duran Duran

I’m not a fan btw, I only heard it on one of DD’s live CDs recently.

Feel the silky touch of my caresses
They will keep you looking so brand new
Let me cover you with velvet kisses
I'll create a look that's made for you

That’s Madonna - Dress you up.

l LOVE Duran Duran’s The chauffeur (wandered off and it had already been guessed!)

(Think Blue Silver was the name of their video/documentary, not the song?)

I know it as the Chauffeur but I think it's titled as The Chauffeur (Blue Silver) on the album.

How about this?

White on white translucent black capes
Back on the rack

Lenny Kravitz? Can't remember the song but I can picture him singing this. Which is pleasant! :)
