Like many, I look forward to Hypno-Toad's quiz and, probably like many again, I usually suffer. However, it does seem a bit unfair for so many of us to rely on one person for the quiz-like entertainment, so I thought I'd start an alternative, just to fill in the gaps, until we're all properly tested again.

Hopefully its not so easy as to be all done in a flash, I'm not so hot on 70s one-hit-wonders. But if it is, perhaps whoever thinks they got the most right can set the next one.

Anyway, here goes...

1. Focus, your mind will be strong, no distractions.

2. Thread worms on a string, keeps spiders in her pocket. Collects fly wings in a jar, scrubs horse flies

3. I can shine even in the darkness, but I crave the light that he brings

4. Model citizen, zero discipline

5. Learning how to give and not be afraid, of the place where I live and mistakes I have made

6. You touch me with your spirit, you touch me with your heart.

7. No time for flight, a blinding light

8. I looked into your face, my heart was dancing all over the place

9. Don't look ahead, there's stormy weather, another roadblock in our way

10. You're talented kid, we can see it clearly

11. Though your world is changing, I will be the same

12. When I close my eyes, when I look your way.

13. Study your face and fade the frame, too close for comfort now.

14. You listened to their side, now listen to mine

15. Do you see what I see? Why do we live like this?

16. There ain't nothing you could ask I could answer you but I won't

17. I was high on a molatov of cocktails, I was low on a hundred things

18. I'll have some pickled onions, and a little bit of cheese, please.

19. So if you see me acting strangely, don't be surprised, I'm just a man who needed someone, and somewhere to hide

20.Too long trying to resist it, you've just gone and missed it

Well, its lasted 24hrs, which was longer than I thought. We've had a few right answers already, and these remain...

1. Focus, your mind will be strong, no distractions.

3. I can shine even in the darkness, but I crave the light that he brings

5. Learning how to give and not be afraid, of the place where I live and mistakes I have made

8. I looked into your face, my heart was dancing all over the place

9. Don't look ahead, there's stormy weather, another roadblock in our way

10. You're talented kid, we can see it clearly

11. Though your world is changing, I will be the same

13. Study your face and fade the frame, too close for comfort now.

14. You listened to their side, now listen to mine

15. Do you see what I see? Why do we live like this?

16. There ain't nothing you could ask I could answer you but I won't

19. So if you see me acting strangely, don't be surprised, I'm just a man who needed someone, and somewhere to hide

20.Too long trying to resist it, you've just gone and missed it

I reckon 5, 10 and 19 are the tougher ones to get, though the remaining songs spread from 1968 to 2012

11. Slave to Love - Bryan Ferry

As for the rest - pfft. Too hard for me, and I'm usually quite good at the Toad's quiz.

Hmm, seems I may have aimed a little higher than I thought, and overshot. There are still ten to get, so I'll think of some clues if that's what we need.
