Last one for a while and it's the 1980's. Again all are (fairly) well known songs and made it to the Top 100 for the year in which they charted (there's roughly 6 from each year of the decade).

REMEMBER - song title and artists needed and limit 5 entries per poster before you need to take a 24 hour break to give others a chance and NO GOOGLING, pull the answers from the depths of your brain.

Here's the twist for those who tend to know their stuff, jump in early and tend to polish off the easy ones pretty quickly. I've gone through these and graded them for difficulty, 1 point for the gimmies (roughly 10), 2 points for intermediates (40) and 3pts for the ones I consider the trickiest (10) either because of the lyrics and/or the artist. The twist is I'm not letting on which is which until the quiz ends so before jumping in with your 5 give it some thought as to which ones might garner you the most kudos XD

1. That's Timid Toad. Reckless Rat. Artful Owl and Batty Bat.
2. You don't need money, don't take fame Don't need no credit card to ride this train
3. P.ussycat, P.ussycat where have you been?
4. Where snakes in the grass are absolutely free
5. She says there's no turnin' back She trapped me in her heart
6. It's like thunder, lightning The way you love me is frightening
7. And if I stare too long, I'd probably break down and cry
8. Every time I think of you I know we have to meet
9. You've got to whip it up And hit me like a ton o' lead
10. That makes me try, try, try, try
11. There's a spy in the sky There's a noise on the wire There's a tap on the line For every paranoid desire
12. It must have been something you said
13. Where the eagles cry On a mountain high
14. It feels so right, so warm and true I need to know if you feel it too
15. C'est la rumba Le vieux rock au mambo
16. A penny for your thoughts my dear A penny for your thoughts my dear
17. "The chances of anything coming from Mars Are a million to one" he said
18. Says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"
19. Please, Louise. Pull me off of my knees
20. Take a look up the rail track from Miami to Canada
21. What the hell is wrong with you tonight
22. Shoot it up Shoot it up Shoot it up
23. Laughing like children, living like lovers Rolling like thunder under the covers
24. Who broke my heart, you did, you did
25. I've got to let you know. I've got to let you know
26. People in the park playing games in the dark
27. The time has come to say fair's fair To pay the rent, to pay our share
28. A statistic, a reminder Of a world that doesn't care
29. Touching the very part of me, it's making my soul sing
30. Liz Taylor is not his style And even Lana Turner's smile
31. Measles' make you jumpy and mumps' will make you lumpy
32. No matter what they take from me They can't take away my dignity
33. Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
34. At long last, love has arrived And I thank God I'm alive
35. Just one look at you And I know it's gonna be
36. I'd make a deal with God And I'd get him to swap our places
37. And you know I'm going straight for your heart
38. One man on a lonely platform One case sitting by his side
39. Want to get on He want to get on He want to get on Want to get on
40. Yeah, I feel alright I said, "Yeah" Yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah
41. I must be on my way The time is drawing near
42. Sun and rain Joy and pain There's highs - there's lows We've no way of knowing
43. There's a new headline, there's a new sensation
44. You can try hard (aah-ahh-ah) Don't mean a thing (aah-ahh-ah)
45. And maybe now baby (maybe now baby) Maybe now baby (maybe now baby)
46. I'll be where the eagle's flying higher and higher
47. Step by step, heart to heart, left right left We all fall down
48. They can't have it You can't have it I can't have it too
49. And that's my heart that's breaking Down this long distance line tonight
50. And if I cause a commotion I only end up losing you and that's worse
51. Suki plays with Leo, Sacha plays with Britt
52. You can't sleep, you can't eat There's no doubt, you're in deep

56. And we know what we're knowin' But we can't say what we've seen

Correct. I did have this as a 1pt gimmie but on reflection I maybe shouldn't have in light of the fact they had 2 singles that met this quiz's criteria, one entitled Joan of Arc and the other, as you identified as Maid of Orleans (The Waltz of Joan of Arc).

That's why I'm the judge and jury XD I guess it's all down to what you know v what you don't. If I was playing the quiz I'd recognize the Sade song in an instant but the Laura Branigan one I'd have problems with if all the lyrics were supplied (apart from Gloria obviously).

Time to put this one to bed. Anyone is free to polish off these last 6. Just 1pt each for these now with the extra clues.

5. She says there's no turnin' back She trapped me in her heart (Was it muddy at Althorp?)
14. It feels so right, so warm and true I need to know if you feel it too (Not a British band?)
37. And you know I'm going straight for your heart (007 but which one?)
42. Sun and rain Joy and pain There's highs - there's lows We've no way of knowing (You must hear this tune 3 nights a week)
55. I thought I was mistaken And I thought I heard your words (A bad start to the week perhaps?)
57. I didn't really mean to hurt you I didn't wanna see you go (Ahoy! The singer wasn't wearing much in this video)

Anyone can fall in love but that's close enough. Just 14 and 57 to go.

I thought 57 might have been John Lennon’s or Brian Ferry’s Jealous Guy

But the later clue got me leching in the right direction

I did put out a message that it was open from 6pm. You must have been too busy watching the horse racing XD Then I lost track of time because I was dealing with a complaint from the BBC that someone has been posting their articles on here again ;D

Plus, all the other players wanted to get their own back because of your dodgy time keeping on previous quizzes XD
