Between you you've got most of them, good going, I thought some were pretty tricky but you got them. MB isn't Motor Biking but I looked that up and yes that was a song although not what I had in mind and not by TW, can you guess the one I had in mind? It's a lesser known single from a band that were big on the Mod scene in the 60s and who made it big since then. BR by Queen is Bicycle Race not Ride but close enough! So theres no 4 left, plus an alternative answer for no 2. In no 4 SP is a band, song was released 2006
1 BYT (JM)Big Yellow Taxi...Joni Mitchell
2 MB (TW) - not Motor Biking, can you get it from my clue
3 BR (Q)Bicycle Race ....Queen
4 CC (SP)
5 FCTM (GATP)Ferry cross the Mersey. Gerry and the Pacemakers
6 YS (TB)Yellow Submarine, the Beatles.
7 LRC (P)Little Red Corvette. Prince.
8 LOAJP (PPAM)Leaving on a Jet plane. Peter, Paul and Mary.
9 C (GN)Cars, Gary Newnan.
10 J (PMAW)Jet. Paul McCartney and Wings
11 SJB (TBB)Sloop John B, The Beach Boys.
12 OTGSL (ST)On the good ship Lollipop ....Shirley Temple
13 TABAP (DW)Trains and boats and planes. Dionne Warwick.

SP was one of the post-britpop bands along with the likes of Coldplay, Travis, Arctic Monkeys and the like. And from wiki "In 2009, UK music licensing body PPL announced that ["CC"] was the most widely played song of the decade in the UK.[6] Ten years later, it was revealed as the most-played song of the 21st century on UK radio.[5]

I took a look at these and apart from two or three of them I felt completely stumped. Magica has done well to get so many. That last one , number 6, I've looked at it this way and that but I just can't see what it can be. The only letters that suggest numbers are T for two or twenty, and N for nine or nineteen or ninety, that takes me nowhere I've tried thinking of who KM might be but the only name that comes to mind is Kylie Minogue, but don't know anything of hers that might fit.

No 7...Nena was German, she only had that one hit here.
No 10...A Boy band had a hit with this song. The four members have gone on since to do different things in theatre and TV. They were massive in the early 2000s, have split up and reformed a couple of times since.
No 6...The NM is the number, a big one. This song could have also been suitable for the previous quiz.
