In order to win a hamper full of Corsair tinned chicken, you must name both songs (the quoter and the quotee). Good luck!
1. Which Joan Armatrading song quotes the title of a Thin Lizzy song?
2. Which ELO song quotes the title of a Led Zeppelin song?
3. Which Dire Straits song quotes the title of an Angels song?
4. Which Elvis Costello song quotes the title of an Abba song?
5. Which Rush song quotes the title of a Bruce Springsteen song?
6. Which CSNY song quotes the title of a Stranglers song?
7. Which Human League song quotes the title of a Stooges song?
8. Which Bob Dylan song quotes the title of a Beatles song?
9. Which Animals song quotes the title of an XTC song?
10. Which Elton John song quotes the title of a Manfred Mann’s Earth Band song?
I give up – which?
Do you mean the title of a song by the second act appears in the lyrics of a song by the first act? I’m guessing there will be dozens of Dylan songs that have Yesterday, I will, Goodnight, Because or Octopus’s Garden somewhere in the lyrics. Okay, not so much the last one. Or have I misunderstood what you mean (probably)?
Roll On John quotes Come Together too, in addition to referencing A Day in The Life.
Yes, the title of a song by the second act is contained in the lyrics of a song by the first act.
Question No 4 was interesting as I knew Elvis is a fan of Sweden’s fab four.
I googled of course.
At 3.22 you will hear a quote from Dancing Queen
“The ghostly first wife glides up on stage whispering to raucous talkers
Spilling family secrets out to flunkeys and castrato walkers
See that girl,
Watch that scene
Digging the “Dancing Queen””

He’d already nicked the piano riff for Oliver’s Army, so why not the words too
Wasn’t that Steve Nieve’s idea?
Of course, you’re correct.
Human League / Stooges
The Lebanon:
She dreams of 1969
Before the soldiers came
Another correct answer.
2. Rock and Roll is King -> Rock and Roll
I was going for ‘Sweet Talking Woman’ which contains the line “communication breakdown all around…” but that deserves a tin of Corsair chicken.
Me & you & a Black dog named Boo…
Bob Dylan/The Beatles
Murder Most Foul
I Want To Hold Your Hand
Quack Quack Oops!
The lyric is: “…they’re gonna hold your hand.” That’s not the title of a Beatles song.
1. The Joan Armatrading song “I Want That Love” contains the phrase “the sun goes down”
“The Sun Goes Down” is a Thin Lizzy Song on “Thunder and Lightning”.
I was thinking “Love & Affection.” She sings “little darlin’ you can help me a lot…”
I’m quite fond of Corsair Tinned Chicken, but I’m not sure I could eat a whole hamper.
I know this one – it’s from “Ay up it’s Carol Vorderman!” by HMHB.
Anyone know the answer to the Rush one?
