    Honestly, I nearly had it, but, rather than rack my brains for the next 4 - 5 years, I decided to be sensible and cheat.

    Catatonia - Dead From The Waist Down
    (I actually have it on CD)

    Here's a much easier one.

    I'll sing myself to sleep

    I'll sing myself to sleep: That's James isn't it? Sit down.



    With your mercury mouth in the missionary times

    clue: The singer has a big nose.

    Honest it simple.

    Read the words. Let them spin around in your head for a few hours driving you nuts thinking where have I heard that before.

    When yer heads done in enough do what you should have done in the first place and 'google it'.

    I never want to hear the words 'Tom, get your plane right on time' again as long as I live.
    And I don't like Simon and Garfunkel, but I'm now condemned to them being in my head.<grr>

    Oh yes, then you get the chance to get your own back.....

    Carter U.S.M.- The Only Living Boy In New Cross.
    Would never have guessed it if you hadn't mentioned it being similar to the Simon and Garfunkel one.
