As we head into the 2nd week of the International break and it looks like the Who Am I quizzes have run their course it's back to probing your pop trivia knowledge. No year clues this time around, no lyrics to name, just ferret around in that brain of yours and pluck out the song title and artist who had a UK hit with it (there's maybe one or two you might not be able to call it a hit). As usual, no posting answers once you've Googled the lyrics to satisfy your itch. No strict limit but 5 seems about right before taking a break and giving others a chance. Hopefully there's something in there for everyone. One clue, all are pre-1990.
