Questions for the Curious: Week Three, Lyrics

[shinydan]

Rules: Here are eleven questions. For the first ten questions, one point shall be awarded for the artist, and one point for the song title. As a hint, you also get the year it was in the UK singles chart. You are NOT, at the request of several players, permitted to google for the answers. Your answers will be screened until Friday, when the answers and scores will be posted. Question 11 is worth five points on its own. And here is

1) "I can't stay on your morphine / Cause it's making me itch / I tried to call the nurse again, but she's being a little bitch" - 2002

2) "Look at the stars / Look how they shine for you / And everything you do" - 2000

3) "Take my thoughts with you / And when you look behind / You will surely see a face that you recognise" - 1997

4) "How does it feel / To treat me like you do / When you lay your hands upon me / And told me who you are" - 1983, remixed 1988 & 1995

5) "I'm walking down the only road I've ever known / Like a drifter I was born to walk alone" - 1982, remixed 1987

6) "Every time / Just like the last / On her ship / Tied to the mast / To distant lands" - 1982

7) "I was so high I did not recognise / The fire burning in her eyes / The chaos that controlled my mind" - 2004

8) "I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes / I have to turn my head" - 1966

9) "Stepping through the door like a troubadour / whiling just an hour away / Looking at the trees on the roadside / feeling its a holiday" - 1996

10)"She's just a loner with a sexy attitude / I'd like to phone her 'cause she puts me in the mood" - 2004

11) And what links all ten answers?
