Just a hint with this one - in two of the tracks the words you need are quite well hidden.

I'm definitely struggling with this one

No, sorry, Ruddles. It's land-based nature you're looking for rather than sea-based.

How about

BARK at the Moon - Ozzy Osbourne

Am I looking for a species of tree or some more general link?
If it's a species have I hit on it with any of my previous answers even though the actual tracks were wrong Confused

Yes, Ruddles, it's a specific type of tree you need. You've already got the type of tree in your previous guesses, just the wrong track.

I'll try

YOU Win Again - Hot Chocolate
Brimful of ASHa - Cornershop
Virginia PLAIN - Roxy Music
Addicted to Love - Robert PALMer
Beach Baby Beach - FIRst Class
When Will the Good APPLEs Fall - The Seekers

If none of those are correct I think I might need a musical clue to narrow the field down a bit Confused

Sorry, Ruddles, you still haven't got it.

The track you're looking for was a no. 1 in 1980. The title of the track later became the title of a television series.

Well I suppose the obvious track from around that time which ties in with a later TV series would be

Ashes to Ashes - David Bowie?

Yes Angel I'll settlle for a nice cup of tea - Earl Gray of course Smile

Here's the next one

The Wedding - Julie Rogers
Take a Little Bit of My Life - Dave Lambert
Bend and Break - Keane

Just by way of a clue I had to change one of the tracks from when I did this one live two weeks ago because of something which happened a few days ago

I don't think this one is too difficult hopefully Smile

Time for a bit of extra help I think

The track I used in the live link which no longer fits in was

Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen

That might help you - you need to work out why that track would fit the link two weeks ago but not now Smile

Is it football managers, Ruddles?
Steve Keane, not sure about the others. And of course (Steve) Bruce is no longer a manager.

Yes I'll give you that one Schiz the actual link being Premier League Managers

I just couldn't believe that Sunderland sacked Steve Bruce just to cock up my think link Mad

Now had it been Steve Keen then I might have expected it

Anyway over to you lot for the fourth track - not many tracks to choose from on this one I think Smile

No sorry Schiz but keep guessing - you've only got 17 clubs to think about and there aren't many tracks which fit Smile

Do you know Angel I spent hours thinking about a track which linked to Martin Jol and couldn't come up with anything so very well done Very Happy

But sadly for that reason it's not the correct answer Smile

No sorry Angel - that is tenuous Laughing

I'll tell you what - we had a few flakes of snow here this morning - doesn't it make you look forward to a nice summer break abroad in a real hotspot Smile

OK I see no answers on this one to date so as it is almost Christmas and I'm feeling generous I'll give you a couple more tracks which might help

Stop Your Sobbing - The Pretenders
Sometimes When We Touch - Dan Hill

I hope these extra clues might point you in the right direction Smile

Hi Ruddles, I hope you had a good Christmas.

I'm wanting to say darts for this one because of the 'Fordham', but I'm not actually seeing any connections Confused

Thanks Angel - I had a very nice Christmas and trust that you did also

I can see how you're thinking because quite a lot of my links are sports related but the link is not darts in this case and in fact there isn't any sporting link at all on this occasion Smile
