Hi Tao!
Those are the correct titles, but not the artists I had in mind. Obviously more than one artist has done songs by these titles, so I will go ahead and give you credit on those. :D

Hi CF...in with three (hopefully!)
#4. Our Lips Are Sealed - Go-Go's (US) or Fun Boy Three (UK)
#6. Carrie - Europe, or Cliff Richard (not same song, obviously!)
#9. Shake It - Ian Matthews

Pretty good guesses, ladybug! :) #3 and #8 are correct, although chronic just beat you to #8. You have the right title for #2 but I'm afraid the artist is not B.J. Thomas. :-/

Paul, you are very good at deciphering these! I'm amazed that you were able to work those out with my poor clues! I'll try to do much better in my next quiz...I promise! ;)
