Bang-on, Tanya! :)

They're called Timex Social Club, and they're from US (so it should be Rumors), but you got it right.

Correctamundo, Rob! And welcome back to the boards btw. ;)

Four out of four, Paul. Excellent job! :)
Russell Morris...? Never heard of. I was thinking...2 Unlimited, or Jellybean (or Brothers Johnson or Lisa Stansfield...) ::)

The Russell Morris song is a wonderful 'freaked-out' piece of pop-psych from the late 60s...
...known only to me and a few of our Australian chums (big hit over there!)

Hey Henk,now that I had a chance to read them all

the song i'm thinking of is by Tori Amos but something
tells me you are thinking of another artist.
and #9...Right Next Door...Robert Cray

"something" tells you right... ;) You've got the title, though - and that's worth a point.
and #9...Right Next Door...Robert Cray
...is also correct.
Hi Henk, I think
#2 is Right Here, Right Now - Fatboy Slim
That's right, maddog. (There's also a pretty well known Jesus Jones song with the same title)
5. Rich Girl-Hall and Oates or Gwen Stefani
6. The Riddle-Nik Kershaw
14. Right Back To Where We Started From-Maxine Nightingale
And these are correct too! :)

These weren't easy to find, so I hope they're right!
8. "Roadblock", Bob Marley
13. "Routine Day", Klaatu/Curiosity Shop
Figures all the simple ones go in the first 5-6 hours why did I ever sell Marty the time machine?
Your Pal,

You've nailed #13, but for #8 I'm looking for another artist (or artists, to be more accurate). These three UK blokes are better known as producers (80s and 90s; think Jason Donovan, Kylie Minogue... ::))

I was a bit surprised to see that one unanswered till now... It seemed like a giveaway to me.

You've got that one right, Gambo. :)

Looking for another song on this one, though...
It's a 1988 song, by a British band who took their name from a SSI form (the UK equivalent, that is).

Yep, that's what I was looking for! 8)
Only two halves left now...I've removed the limit and added some hints/clues.
Subject: Re: FD's CryptiQuiz (Q & R songs) (TWO HALVES LEFT)
Written By: whistledog on 11/05/05 at 12:29 pm
Is the answer to #7 Lloyd Cole and the Commotions? I know they had an album called Rattlensnakes that featured a title track
#8 is Stock, Aitken and Waterman, or SAW. I have this song on a British Mix CD of 80's hits called "Eighties Mix - Volume 2" :)
