If I look back it appears that the last time we hit this section was at Christmas time, so that's almost two months ago now. Time for some more themed songs, methinks. What left to do? Well, we haven't done numbers yet, so let's try that.

Start off with one from Bon Jovi, this is “Next 100 years”.

How about the Proclaimers, with “500 miles”?

Or even the Pretenders, going further...

Then there's David Bowie, track from the classic album “Ziggy Stardust”, this is “Five years”.

And the late Gene Pitney was “24 hours from Tulsa” (wonder if he ever got there?)...

… while Paul Davis had a “'65 love affair”.

Can't forget Tom Waits, who had “Sixteen shells from a thirty-ought-six”

or Youssou N'Dour with Neneh Cherry, and “Seven seconds”.

The crazily-named ? And the Mysterons had “96 tears” way back when

and of course Paul Simon had “Fifty ways to leave your lover” (though he fell far short of listing them all!).
