Ooops. I did mean to come back straight away with a question.. and then I got a bit distracted. But now here it is.
Name the connection:- The Kinks, Suggs, Gerry Rafferty, Abba, Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine.

I'll go for the wild stab and say there are siblings of one sort or another in each of those. Huh? Am I lucky?

DelphicOracle Posted Nov 9, 1999
I'm afraid you're unlucky. There are no siblings in Gerry Rafferty, seeing as there is only one of him. 
Any other guesses?

Half an answer I'm afraid - anything to do with London?
Kinks - Waterloo Sunset
Suggs ?
Rafferty - Baker Street
Abba - Waterloo
Carter - New Cross
London Railway Stations?

Okay Waxer, as you seemed to get in there first, you get the points, and shoot straight into the number..... three slot! *snigger* 
Next question... complete the lyrics and name the singer, for 20pts:
Women of a certain age
They learn to rely and judge on his responses...
And a special big bonus (30pts!) for anyone who can tell me who wrote the words and music.

Frizzychick, you were indeed correct. London Underground stations is what I was thinking of, but "bits of London" works just as well.
The Suggs one is "Camden Town", BTW. Have some points!
Current question: it's something by Tina Turner. Is it "I Don't Want To Lose You"? Dunno the next line, though...

"Having played the mating game"
Tina Turner - I Don't Wanna Lose You
Who wrote it? Dunno, Mark Knopfler wrote some tracks on that album, but not that one, IIRC.

While everyone's off examining the backcovers of their Tina Turner albums, do we need another question?
Here's one anyway. Name the connection: Lou Reed, Kirsty McColl, Leonard Cohen, U2, Genesis.

Okay, 20pts to Gaz, and into joint first place. I'll just leave that bonus question floating around a little longer...
And add another 'complete the lyrics' question for 10pts:
If ever you've got rain in your heart
Someone has hurt you and torn you apart...
Next two lines please!

Gaz - will you stop being a smarty-pants and give your dear darling sister (*grins sweetly*) a chance. hey and you didn't get the next lines anyway so there... Sus, don't give him any points...
(I don't know the next lines either, boo hiss)

Sorry Lizard? Could you be a bit more... well, a bit more anyway!
No points for anyone yet?

Despite being fans of three out of those five, I've absolutely no idea. Don't suppose a hint is in order?

$u$ Posted Nov 13, 1999
3 out of which 5? *another forum falls into total confusion*
I'm lost at sea...

Poor 'Sus - I think these last two posts have been in relation to DO's " Name the connection: Lou Reed, Kirsty McColl, Leonard Cohen, U2, Genesis." question from a few days back. Make sense now?

Irving Washington - Gone Writing Posted Nov 13, 1999
Yes, if you look at the connection from the left, you'll see that...

*sits quietly in corner and rocks* I... I... I'll be fine...
