2. Valotte - Julian Lennon
8. Valley Girls - Frank Zappa

Hi Karen...amazing how you pulled this one off - there can't be too many 'V' songs knocking about...

#10. 'Valerie' - Steve Winwood (one of my favourites...)
#13. 'Venus' - Frankie Avalon
#20. 'Vehicle' - Ides Of March (another good one...)


Before I get carried away, three was the limit, was it?

Thanks, Paul!  Yes, there certainly aren't that many 'V' songs!

#10. 'Valerie' - Steve Winwood (one of my favourites...)
#13. 'Venus' - Frankie Avalon
#20. 'Vehicle' - Ides Of March (another good one...)

Sorry that I'd forgotten to set the limit.  Yes, 3 it is!  And your three are 100% correct!  8)

3 for 3, Niko101!  :)

And as for #5...songs that begin with 'A' are filed in an index the same way as songs that start with 'The'...in other words, that first word is dropped.  So I felt justified in using this one.  ;)
