It's been a long time since I did a lyrics quiz, so here it is.

Name the song and the artist .
The prize? The music man of win2win.

1 Pigeon Detectives - Take Her Back - Clue - A newish Leeds Band not poirot
He's not sure what he should do
shes 17, he's 22 is that too much of a difference?
so instead look what he's done he's found a girl who's 31
is that too much of a difference? she's got everything he wants
she's got everything he needs

2 New Order - Someone Like You
- Clue - Manchester band that was once in a division of its own
This can't be real
My heart is burning
How does it feel
Well let's say I'm learning
It had to come
The ship has landed
It's time to run
The crew are stranded



3 - Tracy Chapman - Why
Why do the babies starve
When there's enough food to feed the world
Why when there're so many of us
Are there people still alone
Why are the missiles called peace keepers
When they're aimed to kill
Why is a woman still not safe
When she's in her home

4- Michael Jackson - Liberian Girl
You know that you came and you changed my world,
Just like in the movies,
With two lovers in a scene
And she says "do you love me"
And he says so endlessly

5 - The Style Council - Long Hot Summer -
I play out my role
Why i've even been out walking
They tell me that it helps
But i know when i'm beaten
All those lonely films
And all those lonely parties
But now the feeling is off-screen
An' the tears for real not acted, anymore
I'm all mixed up inside
I want to run but i can't hide
And however much we try
We can't escape the truth and the fact is

6 - Dido White Flag -
I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?
I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender

7- Clue - he didn't take it he went solo
By the beautiful and good in this city,
None of it was planned,
Take me by the hand,
Just don’t try and understand

8 The Cranberies - Electric Blue - Clue - The berries from Ireland that are good for the kidneys
If you should go you should know I love you.
If you should go you should know I'm here.
Always be near me, guardian angel.
Always be near me, there's no fear.

9- Maneater - Nelly Furtado -
Everybody look at me, me
I walk in the door you start screaming
Come on everybody whatcha here for?
Move your body around like a nympho
Everybody get your necks to crack around
All you crazy people come on jump around
I want to see you all on your knees, knees
You either want to be with me, or be me!

10- November Rain - Guns N Roses
When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle

They are pretty hard, usually they get done in 5 mins so I made them harder.
They are all top tunes though that is the clue :laugh

You are correct with Dido White Flag, I did that at Karaoke once as Leeds fans have changed the lyrics , less said the better :laugh

I'm a tomboy so it's the other way around for me, I don't have a jealous bone in my body I don't think, I like going to footy and nights out with the boys.
