Hi again Jason...once again, splendid effort...
#11. 'Only You' - Yazoo/Flying Pickets (I know which I'd prefer...!)
#15. 'Reward' - Teardrop Explodes
#31. 'What Kinda Boy You Lookin' For (Girl)' - Hot Chocolate (their last-ever British Top 10 record - not including various re-hashes of 'You Sexy Thing'...!)
#32. 'Breakaway' - Tracey Ullman (a frantic cover of an old Jackie DeShannon song...)
#33. That was Chubby Checker with 'The Twist' which was re-hashed with the Fat Boys as 'The Twist (Yo Twist)'...and very, very dangerously got close to a British #1 with it...!

All 5 correct answers :)
Over here, Hot Chocolate never made it into the 80's. Despite 1 monir hit with 'Are You Getting Enough Happiness' in 1982, they never made it out of the 70's. Shame too. They had some great 80's songs

5. The group is the Kane Gang but I can't remember the song.
12. So Alive
14. The Zombies song is Tell Her No.
19. The group you are looking for is Yazz.
a good guess on #19, but no. The other three are correct though :)

Hi again...
The song title for #8. is 'Teardrops'
And (I had to dig this one out!) #25. is '18 Carat Love Affair' - Associates, although I seem to remember that the flip-side, a cover of Diana Ross' 'Love Hangover' seemed to get most of the airplay...

I hate to burst anyone's bubble, but... I got this one before Gambo did.
With your clues for #5... must be Kane Gang. Is it Closest Thing To Heaven? :-\\

Right you are, and I think you have the correct song as well.
As for number 14, the Zombies cover was by Juice Newton.

25. Come Back - Wah!
