Ok... you guys sound like you need some major hints...

Hint 1... No song shares a word. They are linked by a theme (obvious when you know the answer)

Hint 2... Cryptic clue for song 1 -> 8 legged Feline perhaps?

Hint 3... New line from song 2 -> He strikes, like [......]

Hint 4... New set of lyrics for song 3 ->
Darling you won,
It’s no fun,
Martinis, girls and guns,
It’s murder on our love affair

You should get them now...

3) Diamonds are Forever?

* for the theme... James Bond Themes

** for #2... Thunderball - Tom Jones

I'm not going to give you a * for #1... it IS the theme to Octopussy but that is not the name of the song
[whisper] I might give you a bonus point for it later... if you are lucky [/whisper]

#3 is not Diamonds are forever...

soooo it's *** for you DooD

Thank you kindly.

Assuming the highest score goes first, it looks like Sweeney's up.

If he's not "UP" for it, I'll go again. I don't mind losing as long as I get to play now and again.

Perv!

 

[Sweeney]

Sorry dudes... I'm off for the day now, so somebody else will have to go (unless you want to wait till tomorrow)...

But you should be able to catch up as I won't be back on till 9am tomorrow morning (UK time) 15 1/2 hours

Since I won't be able to guess for the next few hours, I'll post a quick and, IMO, easy one.

1.
She knows she got everything
that a woman needs to get a man, yeah.
How can she lose, with the set she uses
36-24-36, Oh, what a winning hand!

2.
Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around

3.
I'll light the fire
You place the flowers in the vase that you bought today.
Staring at the fire for hours and hours
While I listen to you play your love songs all night long for me,
Only for me.

Happy guessing!

To get 3 songs with the same theme I had to use the name of the Artist/Band for one of them.

1. She's not a girl who misses much
do do do do do do, oh yeah
She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand like a lizard on a window pane.
The man in the crowd with the multi-colored mirrors on his hobnail boots.
Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy working overtime.

2. ...
Her whole world's come undone
From lookin' straight at the sun
What did her daddy do
What did he put you through

3. She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that
special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry

3) Our House - Simon and Garfunkle

**, despite the misspelling of Commodores. Nobody's perfect all the time, right?

EDIT: Bonus point if you can tell me how the band got their name (a little bit of trivia I'm not sure how I came across).
