Music Quiz - "E"
All the following lyrics come from songs in the UK Top 10 singles chart, from its inception in 1952 to the present day, as referred to on www.everyhit.com.
Ignoring silly words like "The" and "A", nine of the songs come from artists beginning with the letter "E". The tenth and last song on the list has a title beginning with the letter "E".
Name the artist of each song for one point, and get another for naming the song. Please don't use internet search services to look these details up.
Answers will be screened until Friday afternoon, when I'll post the answers and the scores!
1) Don't want your love any more, don't want your kisses, that's for sure. I die each time I hear this sound
2) The warden threw a party in the county jail, the prison band was there and they began to wail
3) For I don't love you any more. To waste our lives would be a sin
4) I'll never do something to hurt you, though - oh but the feeling is bad, the feeling is bad
5) And in the car they found a tape, but they didn't say who it was to. Come to think about, his name was...
6) And all the science I don't understand, it's just my job five days a week
7) Let me reach, let me beach on the shores of Tripoli
8) I've got something to put in you, I've got something to put in you, I've got something to put in you
9) How can you see into my eyes like open doors, leading you down into my core
10) Oh, can't you see, you belong to me? How my poor heart aches
Good luck!
