Update time:
Sorry Trin, 20 isn't "Cream" (which reached only #15 for Prince in 1991), I'm after a #2 song from 1982...
You can have 7. Rain (top ten hit for Quo in 1976 and Madonna in 1993), but I had a #1 from 1980 (no extra marks).
Scoreboard:
Trin 7
Cupid 2
Master B 1
10 points still available
Target score to win: 10 points
Remaining songs:
2. Art Garfunkel (4)
3. Dexy's Midnight Runners (6)
4. Earth Wind & Fire (5)
5. Fairground Attraction (6)
6. Frankie Goes To Hollywood (6)

Although, you don't need maths, The Beatles Rock.

Icy North Posted Mar 12, 2004
Free as a Bird reached #2 in Dec 1995.
Lennon was murdered in Dec 1980.
So that's 15 years between them.
15 = 23-6-2

Help - I need somebody.
I'll get by with a little help from my friends.
Come together - we can work it out.
