Clues below. I’m hoping that the overall clues are coherent while the bold bits might lead you to the answers by way of the words:

1) This legend of British music may not be singing about a karma chameleon but he is definitely an archangel

2) Despite his moniker, this rock’n’roll legend is neither a Tom Hanks movie nor an average person. In fact he’s a revered English Romantic painter

5) This Louisiana musician shares his first name with a Prince, antagonist of Robin Hood, and is decidedly not blurry. He forms a partnership with people who are unequivocally beastly aristocrats.

6) This notorious British 00s band indulge in pleasure regardless of morality. Can you stand them now?

9) This water feature belongs to a band who spends a lot of time talking about a girl’s mom
