O/T Mega Poptastic Pop Quiz (26)

[CAMiller]

Another day another dollop of music. All songs are from the same year and were 'hits' in the UK. Once you figure out the year you'll know if it's in your wheelhouse and bear the year in mind when considering your answers. Don't go revealing the year and making it easy for the others.

Charles and Diana were being married by a man who earlier in the year had advised Christians to not view homos.exuality as a sin but as a handicap! Britain endured a summer of violent riots and continued IRA bombings whilst at Greenham Common a group of women were setting up a peace camp. In sport, at 1.5M Bryan Robson became Britain's most expensive footballer and signature horse races were being won by Aldaniti and Shergar. In politics the Gang of Four were getting together and in crime and justice the Yorkshire Ripper was finally caught and sentenced to 30 years before parole could be considered! And they say judges are too lenient these days

As usual - 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 PLEASE. Pull the answers from the depths of your brain. There are some real easy ones in there and some that will challenge the best memories on the planet.
