For efficiency's sake i've removed about half the list because i haven't heard of the acts  :P  ::)

3.  Every 1's a Winner--Hot Chocolate - Hm..erm...3?  It's alright for adverts etc.
5.  Hardware Store--Weird Al Yankovic - This is off the new album, right? I took a look at the lyric and it didn't really do anything for me, so i didn't bother downloading it :-/
6.  Tubthumping--Chumbawumba - I agree whole-heartedly with Oi Polloi on this one : 'One minute it`s `D.I.Y., D.I.Y.` attacking big business in their execellent booklet...and Danbert appearing on an LP called `**** EMI`, the next someone waves a chequebook and Hey Pesto! - they're actually on EMI! Classic..."But Hey," someone says, "they're just trying to get their message across to a wider audience." Ah yes, the important message `he drinks a lager drink, he drinks a cider drink...` Very profound.' O.K., sorry, that was longer than i expected - and i doubt many of you are interested :-/ but anyway they go on to quote Chumbawumba berating bands who do exactly what they did. Lyric: 1, Music: 2
10.  Brass In Pocket--Pretenders - Haven't heard this particular song but i kind of like the band.
11.  Hotel California--The Eagles - Yup.  Good song.  Thought i had it on LP but apparently not :(  Kind of haunting and the lyric is kind of mysterious.  Is it a metaphor for drug-addiction or something? Music: 3.5, Lyric: 4
16.  Lola--The Kinks - Nice tune but despite the quirky lyric, i prefer the "Weird Al" version. Music: 3, Lyric: 3.6
22.  The White Stuff--Weird Al Yankovic - May have been the first "Weird Al" song i heard.  Can't remember, pretty funny lyric to a tolerable pop-song.  Lyric: 3.5 Music: 2.5

Well, i'm sure you are all basking now in my immense and diverse knowledge of Pop.  ::)
