    Damn, no time for anything other than a 15 sec snatch of each ...

    2. Lambchop?

    6. obv a cover of Virginia Plain, but no idea who by.

    7. sounds like Robert Wyatt, although ...

    8. does too.

    9. presumably Aries, but no idea on song.

    10. The Leo choice, but again, beyond me.

    Pathetic, I know, but I gave away so many points last week, I'll scrabble for any I can get back!

    Threadjack:

    I'd like to take back what I said about Snow Patrol being rubbish. I just listened to Chasing Cars and was very moved by it. It was, however, the Donk remix.

    @ blimpy - it's in the bag! How could you not win???

    @ shoey - track 6 is Robert Wyatt's Little Red Robin Hood Hit The Road from the album Rock Bottom. The track features the voice of Ivor Cutler. Not sure what the zodiac connection is though ...

    best of luck, Blimpy!!

    Shoey, I did listen but, not surprisingly, have never heard any of these tracks before. I did quite like numbers 4 and 5 though, be interesting to see what they turn out to be.

    At the risk of making a complete fool of myself... Virginia = Virgin = Virgo? Otherwise, not the faintest beginnings of a clue about any of this.

    "Virginia Plain" is by either SpizzOil, SpizzEnergi or Athletico Spizz '80. I claim one one-hundred-and-eighth of a point.
