[net.music] Reposting of UK Quiz

Munch,munch

A very nice person has duly scolded me for posting with imbedded nroff
formatters.  I am sorry.  Here is a reposting of the United Kingdom
one-liner quiz.  Because of my stupidity, I will give some extra time
before I post the answers.


First things first:  For all you "Boss" fans (poor things), Bruce's new album
will be released in June, complete with video and single.  You should move
to Monmouth County, NJ (Home of the BOSS!!!!).  Our newspapers are always
buzzing with info on your hero.  You could even bump into him at the
mall (gosh!!).

Enough frivolity.  This is a United Kingdom one-liner quiz.  All the artists
are from one of the UK countries.  Name the song, group, and album
(if possible).  There is one that I would consider a REAL toughie (#6),
however the rest should be fairly accessable.  Send your answers to me by
email.

Correct answers will be posted on May 28.

13.  What set you free and brought you to me

14.  I follow where my mind goes

15.  Foreign affairs are screwin' rotten

	What is your definition of the "UK countries".  I define them as
	being England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland (Ulster).
	If I'm not mistaken, the band that answers #1 is from Australia.

Perhaps "Commonwealth of Nations" was intended for "United Kingdom,"
if Australia was to be included.  In that case, however, I think Canada
falls into the pot, doesn't it?
