Yeh, I don’t do Hangman. Out of respect for miscarriages of justice.

Look, there’s only two left to find. You can do this.

Track 8 is by a group named after a New World songbird with a strong pointed bill. The male has black plumage that is iridescent or has patches of red or yellow.

But remember, they were formed as a tribute to our Track 1 artist, so are not spelt conventionally…

Track 9 is by a group named after a strong feeling deriving from one's circumstances, mood, or relationships with others.

Neither correct, I’m afraid, though the second part of no.8 is - only pluralised.

For the first part, think of Ian - the Scottish snooker player of the 80s…

4 could be Earth, Wind & Fire - and if so they’re making a second consecutive appearance in the quiz

Though I imagine there may be many tracks with this title…
