O/T Mega Poptastic Pop Quiz (30)

CAM - I answered 29 before your latest post. Timed at 1.53 am.

44. Original singer for the way you look tonight was the one and only Fred Astaire.

6. 1999 - Prince who also sang 39. When Doves Cry (from that brilliant Album Purple Rain).

29 is Sir Duke
6 and 39 are both correct.

Still not the artist I'm looking for on 44. See the clue I gave CT. Fred Astaire does not fit the quiz theme.

Yes that's the title and done by many but the artist I'm looking for fits in with the quiz theme. There is a Rod Stewart connection though. The artist I'm looking for is not known for singing but he was once famously tormented by Britt Ekland's 'singing'.

I’ve run out of ideas. I asked Mrs CT and she says Bryan Ferry sang it. However he doesn’t fit your bill of not being known for singing…

Like Prince Philip he was married to a famous Betty.
