That's funny! 3 is a little obscure considering it's a completely different genre to nearly all the others.

The Streets may have that as a lyric, but I don't own any so no points.

My records claim no knowledge of such a thing.

I was at school with the guy who used to (?) run the Rolf Harris fan club....

Of course, on checking, it isn't there, but the line is used on lots of songs, there in black and white. I suspect I know the one it is, though... ;-)

4 Weak - Skunk Anansie

Those are both right. Imbooblia is my answer to the "if you could look like one person who would it be" question.

I knew
1 as Led Zep - Stairway to Heaven and
3 as Natalie Imbruglia - Torn.

Duncan was listening to Torn on his ipod on the way home this evening. He was doing the actions to it from Secret Policeman's Ball. It is great fun doing the actions when it is played in somewhere like Tesco. A little difficult when driving though.
