You got a perfect score, as always!

To quote Tammy Wynette...
D-I-V-O-R-C-E...
...actually, thinking about it, he may not have to appear in court at all...depends what the lawyers manage to thrash out...
It's gonna cost him, tho'...

Yup. And here's the kicker: Sir Paul and Heather didn't have a pre-nup. So depending on the law and how it's applied, she could walk away with a hefty chunk of his money.

Wow!

Exactly!
Apparently, she cannot lay claim to any of his Beatle or Wings fortunes, but whatever she's entitled to it's gonna be huge!
And the legal teams won't do too bad, either!

Hi Karen
For some reason I am just hopeless at these quizzes that you post, it frustrates me but I must have some sort of word blindness about it.
Usually when someone posts the answer I go "Of course!".
However, finally, finally I have got one!
#13 is "Hungry Like The Wolf" by Duran Duran :).

9. Open Arms - Journey
Correct on both...
