    Near enough - they're the only British recording artists to have had a hit record in each of 6 consecutive decades.

    Over to you.

    Yes. A reason why...
    When GT was thinking of buying him, he set up a small patch of grass and asked IB to kickj the ball to it - about 40 ? yards. It landed in the patch. GT thought - might be a fluke, so he asked him to do it again. Same result. Hmmmm. So he moved the kicking point back 10 yards. Same result. He signed him ! £12000 from Notts county. But of course IB had so many qualities ,like leadership.
    It still makes me cross to remember that total muppet Jeff Poerll criticising IB for glorious precise 40-50 yard passes as Watfords horrible long-ball style , and then eulogising over Hoddle's fancy dan lobs over the top into a random space.
    Over to you.

    Haven't seen her 'in action' for a while, but I wouldn't call her petulant.
    But yes - 85+ years in the industry and still going strong apparently. A real looker back in the day too.

    Over to you.
