Thanks. It was an idea I had a while ago but it took me ages to find songs that mention people in the lyrics but not in the title. Then I lost the piece of paper I'd written my ideas on!!

Great quiz karen!
I can see a few but I'll limit myself to my favourite:
#16 (Julie) goes with #3 (Gordon - the moron) in "Jilted John" by Jilted John.

#1 Lenny (Bruce) and #13 Leonard (Bernstein) both appear in "It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" by R.E.M.
I did try to learn all the words to this song off by heart once, one wet afternoon...

Who would you pair it with Philip?
My guess would be Scotty. I could ask my kids (they had to sing it at school) but they're all asleep.

No. It's not a song by Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson. It is a fairly recent song that mentions "Paul" and Michael Jackson"

Let's correct that to
It's a fairly recent song that mentions "Peter" and "Michael Jackson"
God knows what I was thinking of when I wrote down the lyrics :-[
