No good.Gis...I'm still confused!

#5. 'What's Another Year' - Johnny Logan (another Eurovision winner!)

#8. 'Geno' - Dexy's Midnight Runners

#10. 'Suicide Is Painless' - The Mash (blame Noel Edmonds for this!)

...all those were from 1980, and I must have bought them all at near enough the same time!
