To keep your brains whirring through these non-footballing times I'll try and run a few of these and the "Who Am I" quizzes through the summer.
These songs range from the 1960s right through to today and have a connection. They are songs that have reached No1 in the US but are by British artists so bear that in mind when compiling your answers.
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 PLEASE. Pull the answers from the depths of your brain. There's no disgrace in letting one of them get into your head and driving you mad until you finally get it, just after someone else has
1. It's such a feelin' that my love. I can't hide
2. 'Cause I'm not planning on going solo
3. Monkey pack him Rizla pon the sweet Dep line

17. Slam your body down and wind it all around
18. You take a piece of me with you
19. After two days in the desert sun My skin began to turn red
20. And your footsteps will always fall here Along England's greenest hills
21. With a love like that You know you should be glad
22. She smiled at me on the subway She was with another man
23. She leaves me in a cool, cool sweat
24. And the games you play You would always win, always win
25. See the little faggot with the earring and the make up
26. It started long ago in the Garden of Eden When Adam said to Eve, baby, you're for me

44. Gonna be your man in motion, all I need's this pair of wheels
45. I got married to the widow next door She's been married seven times before
46. Every day is like survival (survival) You're my lover (my lover), not my rival
47. Far from the world we know Where the clear winds blow
48. Revved up like a deuce Another runner in the night
49. When I'm home Everything seems to be right
50. Oh, thunder only happens when it's raining
51. It must have been something you said
