I was gonna alphabetize this list for you, but it looks like it may be near the end and due for a new topic soon. Oddly enough I tried to find valid entries for other forms of communication not already listed (whisper, sign language, smoke signal, yell, chat, etc.) but to no avail. :shifty:

I'll add a bonus that doesn't qualify since it missed the cut off date for "Careless Whisper" by Wham which was a #1 in both countries.

Another invalid bonus: "Smoke Signal" by Eric Clapton featuring Bob Dylan. It was released as a single in '76 but never charted.

I have a suggestion for a future topic: Songs with a type of Road in the title (Road, Highway, Railroad, etc.)

Thanks Kenne. :) This topic seems to have dried up. Start it up whenever you like. Maybe make it to include "streets, lanes, addresses etc." too ?

And probably other thoroughfares, such as bridges, etc.
