3.) "Last night, I was taking a walk along the river. And I saw him together with a young girl,"

4.) "Remember when we were such fools and so convinced and just too cool,"

6.) "They all gather round me, they seem to know my name. We laugh. Tell a few jokes. But it still doesn't ease my pain,"

10.) "Well all my friends are turning green, you're a magicians assistant in a dream,"

11.) "Its a word for what you do, in a world of broken rules. She found a place for you, along her chain of fools,"

14.) "And I wait for them to interrupt, me drinking from my broken cup and ask me to open up the gate for you,"

16.) "I need to feel I'm getting stronger. As long as I'm moving it feels true,"

17.) "He was a just a friend of mine I'd run into from time to time,"

19.) "She asked me if we could be friends and I said oh Honey baby that's a dead end. You know and I know that we wouldn't be satisfied,"

20.) "Deep in my soul, I've been so lonely. All of my hopes, fading away. I've longed for love, like everyone else does. I know I'll keep searching, even after today,"

It was Ruby not Glen Campbell.

It was Genesis not Phil Collins but I'll let you have that one. smile

Slow start compared to the last few. wink

Humble apols, I just assumed that it was from his bleeding-heart marriage-over period!

Duke has got a couple of miserable songs on it, so I think he was kind of rehearsing the solo career...

Just amazed no ones got 10.). Its only just dropped out the Top 40. smile

One of them is an ABBA song, I'm sure. But I have no idea what it's called, and I'm not about to start trawling through the complete works of ABBA to try and get it.

Oh. Don't know.

I was thinking of 3.

I may be wrong; I often am.

Down to six. 16.) & 10.) would seem to be the tough ones.

I thought I knew 6, but now I've googled it, turns out it's something else entirely. And there's another I can make fit a tune, but isn't correct.
