Hey Jason, I'm learning to answer tactically on your quizzes, I kept quiet about the instrumental samples that I recognised on the first round as they're more difficult!

Here's 4 instrumentals I recognised plus the Ultravox one....

#44 If I Was - Ultravox
#45 Nikita - Elton John
#72 Tender Love - Force MDs
#82 Perfect Way - Scritti Politti
#85 The Sun Always Shines On TV - A-Ha

32. Burning Heart - Survivor
42. is definitely something by Gordon Lightfoot (not sure of the song, as I only know his older material)
63. Take It Easy - Andy Taylor
72. Tender Love - Force MD's
86. Calling America - ELO

Yes.  For a second I thought you went over hte limit, until I realized that I gave you 5 for 5 instead of 5.  Graham beat you to Force MDs.  Midge Ure is correct, which gives you 4

Well for my remaining 1/2 point available, I'd say that the artist on #3 has to be Little Richard from the sound of his voice but I've never heard this song before!
