c s got #4 and bazooka got #10. Well done guys. :thumbsup:

That leaves quite a few yet. I'll leave it to Farin to monitor this. I have to leave now. I'll give you the TOPIC:

TV SHOW THEMES. And I disagree with you Farin about #9. I'd still like to think that the noble Institution is alive and well, even with all the cynicism in the World.

4. Paint It, Black - The Rolling Stones. Tour Of Duty.

5. With A Little Help From My Friends - Joe Cocker. The Wonder Years.

7. Who Are You - The Who. C.S.I.

10. Secret Agent Man - Johnny Rivers. Secret Agent Man ('Danger Man' in Australia and the U.K.)

Here is my Topical Ten for you all to guess. The theme is definitely not obvious, and I'll give you it if none of you can work it out (which you probably won't - I assure you all it is a very weird theme). I'll give you the hint that four of the songs are by the same band - a few of their songs fit the theme and some were just begging to be assigned clues.

1. An rather unoriginal name for a song about precipitation

2. This type of weather only occurs in a certain month

3. How I felt after the penalty was given in the Italy vs Australia World Cup game

4. It comes from goats (spelt incorrectly though)

5. Referring to an insult

6. “L’Angelo Misterioso†contributed to this song

7. Something many thousands of light years away that could get you drunk

8. How you would feel after receiving local anaesthetic while lying on a leather couch

9. Brad Pitt crossed with General Custer

10. This is where you would find the lower part of the brain in certain people

oops .. I'm confused

6. Badge - Cream

co-written by Clapton and George Harrison, who played guitar on the recording under the pseudonym 'L'Angelo Misterioso' for contractual reasons.

It seems to me I heard that Clapton also used the name when he played on While My Guitar Gently Weeps .

2. November Rain - Guns N' Roses
