What links David Bowie to John Denver

�

MUSIC can make the strangest bedfellows. So what have David Bowie, John Denver and Queen got in common

�

Here's a clue. They share the link with New Order and Chumbawumba. Got it Well, they've all recorded hit singles in which the title was never mentioned in the lyrics of the song.

Bowie did it with Space Oddity; John Denver with Annie's Song and Queen never sang the words Bohemian Rhapsody in their hit of the same name.

Music fan David Nicholson has told us of a few others:

• Unchained Melody by the Righteous Brothers
• Blue Monday by New Order
• Tubthumping by Chumbawumba
• Annie's Song by John Denver
• The Riddle by Nik Kershaw
• A Sort Of Homecoming by U2
• Positively Fourth Street by Bob Dylan, which he says, in his opinion, features one of the greatest disdainful opening lines of all time: 'You've got a lot of nerve to say you are my friend...'
• New York Mining Disaster 1941 by The Bee Gees.
