#14 desperato...eagles?

#11 crazy for you ....madonna?

Good guess, but that's not it. Here's an extra hint, change the word in the middle.

Your Pal,
Doc

ok how about crazy over you but by whom ..arrrggghhh
another 1/2,can i add them both together to make a whole.

Hello

# 5  Monday Monday - Mamas & Papas  :)

Hi Doc! You've done a great job! 8)

Here's what I think:

#8: Double barrel by Dave & Ansil Collins

#10: Dreams by Fleetwood Mac

#19: Chicago by Graham Nash (odd that it should be a non-American coming up with that one!)

And just to make sure everybody understands: Doc hasn't filled be in on the answers. I can assure you, I know as little as everyone else.

Hi Doc

In reference to your other current quiz, is #2 Don't Lose My Number by Phil Collins?

Ooh, also just spotted #13 which must be "Careless Whisper" by George Michael.

Hi

#5  Come Monday - Jimmy Buffet  :)

Me again

#8  Both Sides Now - Joni Mitchell

Hello

# 5  Monday Monday - Mamas & Papas  :)

Wouldn't that just rot your socks  >:( >:( >:( >:( :)

Wouldn't that just rot your socks  >:( >:( >:( >:( :)

I'll admit now that i nearly added that answer as well!!

Henry the 8th, I Am - Herman's Hermits

#1 carrie anne......the hollies?

4. Go on, act foolish! - "Dare to be Stupid", Weird Al Yankovic
11. Insane over thou - "Crazy For You", Madonna

11. Insane over thou - "Crazy For You", Madonna


That has already been tried, but it isn't right.

The only option left for this one is Crazy on you by Heart. ???

7. Vacation_The Go-Gos
9. Canary In A Coalmine-The Police?
18. Dance Naked-John Mellencamp

7. Vacation_The Go-Gos
9. Canary In A Coalmine-The Police?
18. Dance Naked-John Mellencamp

You got the last two right, Indy. I had a hunch that #9 would be tricky.
But #7, Vacation? Come on, man. C or D, you know better. But just what IS a vacation?

Your Pal,
Doc
8)

#1 carrie anne......the hollies?

Right title but wrong song, loki. Who else had a song named "Carrie" (but no Anne)?

Your Pal,
Doc
8)

Hello Doc, one more from me:

#23: Colors of the wind - Vanessa Williams

and with that I've used up my limit, I guess.

the only other group i can think of that sings "carrie"
is EUROPE but i haven't been completely right yet
so why start now?

8. Double Vision - Foreigner
21. Centerfield - John Fogarty

If I do know any better on #7, I could tell you. Right now I'm drawing a complete blank, except for starting with C or D. :-\\
But I believe 24 is "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?- by Rod Stewart.

Just noticed the limit's actually five, so I'll have another go:

#7: Couple days off - Huey Lewis & the News

Add that to my score and it should be five in total (I notice it still says three atm... ;))

Is #16  Could I Have This Dance For The Rest Of My Life - Anne Murray?

#6: don't know why...norah jones?

#6: don't know why...norah jones?
Titlewise, you're very close. But NJ is actually the artist on another clue. I'll revise #6 to avoid more confusion. Keep trying!

Your Pal,
Doc
8)

is #17 norah jones...come away with me?

Come on guys, there's omly six left and I don't think they're too tricky.
I've added Clues and Dropped the Limit, so let's see which one goes next!

#6: Don't ask me why - Billy Joel
#20: Dangerous - Roxette

22. Deacon Blues - Steely Dan

Well done everybody! Four more right answers and we'll have the first Cryptiquiz complete!

Your Pal,
Doc

Hey, where is everyone? 4 days and not a single Cryptiquiz is touched?
All right, I'm setting a deadline of Wednesday Midnight. So if anyone can nail the last four, at least you can tie FD for the top score. I don't know what we'll do for a tiebreaker, though. Think hard, now!

Your Pal,
Doc
