O/T Mega Poptastic Pop Quiz (46)

[CAMiller]

What would an International break be without a couple of pop quizzes to keep you amused? No specific year this time around, these are mainly from the 1970s and 1980s but there are quite a few outliers in there so don't be discouraged. There is a theme/pattern to the answers and if you work it out it might help.

As usual, song title and artists needed and it will have to be the artist that fits the theme to be credited with a full point. There are some tough ones but all are songs that made some impression on the charts of their day.

Limit 5 entries per poster to start with (if you are going for 5 please try and put them all in one reply). 2nd dibs allowed after 5pm Thursday. NO GOOGLING PLEASE. Pull the answers from the depths of your brain.

I thought you'd like many of these raging although I think you got carried away with 28 and just gave me back the lyrics and not the title. Everything else correct.
