Ten snippets of lyrics from songs with 'Radio' in the title, ten artists who recorded them -- but which went with which? Here the sordid truth is revealed.

  • Someone found a letter you wrote me, on the radio / And they told the world just how you felt -- Donna Summer, On the Radio
  • Calling all in transit / Calling all in transit [possibly] -- REM, Radio Free Europe
  • I'd sit alone and watch your light / My only friend through teenage nights -- Queen, Radio Gaga
  • Chain reaction and mutation / Contaminated population [this one's a bit of a cheat, but you try fnding ten proper ones] -- Kraftwerk, Radioactivity
  • So you had better do as you are told / You'd better listen to the radio -- Elvis Costello, Radio Radio
  • This is not Free Europe / Nor an Armed Force network -- The Clash, This is Radio Clash
  • So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) / All the songs we used to know (listen to the radio) -- The Corrs, Radio
  • I heard you on the wireless back in fifty-two -- Buggles, Video Killed the Radio Star
  • Tonight / Be polite -- Young Marble Giants, Radio Silents
  • I hear the talking of the DJ / Can't understand, just what does he say? -- Wall of Voodoo, Mexican Radio
Very close scoring! -- [livejournal.com profile] gbsteve with a creditable 4, [livejournal.com profile] bibliogirl and [livejournal.com profile] liriselei with even more creditable 5s, and [livejournal.com profile] fractalgeek and [livejournal.com profile] brixtonbrood most creditable of all with 6. However the prize goes to [livejournal.com profile] brixtonbrood for an amusing answer to #9. Congratulations to all!
