Are these really that hard? Hmmm. I had to pick words that weren't heard in just any song, you know. Well I'm going to wait another day and see if anybody else can come up with these before I post the answers. Thanks for trying, FussBudget! ;)

Do the songs have to contain all three bits of the lyrics, beacuse I know some which contain one :) like -

'Start Me Up' by the Rolling Stones

"My eyes dilate, my lips go green"

AND

'Pharoah' by Spandau Ballet

"Going alone, take that Pharoah"

I'm guessing you need them in in one song, right? :)

Each song contains one of these words in it. I will say that the titles I'm looking for do not have these words in them. ;)

Okay, FussBudget is asking for some hints so here they are.

#1 - the group that did this song got their name from the type of unusual instrument they use. They are American.

#2 - this song did not make the Top 40, unfortunately. It's by a German trio who used synthesizers to achieve their orchestral sound.

#3 - this song was a one-hit-wonder for this short-lived band. The band is English. The lead singer had a go at a solo career and is most famous for singing the title song of a popular 80's movie.

I hope these clues help! :)
