....actually, Dock of the Bay (Otis Redding); Sweet Painted Lady (Elton John); and Loving You (Minnie Ripperton) are linked because they all have birds singing in the background but I can't think of a fourth to be entered in this thread competition.

lots of Nouvelle Vague songs feature bird song

 

[The Cowboy]

The first or last number one of the decade they were in???

Like Roy Orbison said, 'You Got It'.

First number 1s of the 70s, 80s, 90s and 2000s.

they also have the number two in them, and all have choirs in the song at some point!

What, the word 'two'? Where? Rolf yes, Band Aid in the artist name, but Pink Floyd and Westlife?

I'll agree they have choirs but it's a bit of a generic connection, I was looking for something more unique than that.

Westlife- 2 songs at number one
Pink Floyd- another brick in the wall part 2
Band aid 2
Rolf harris- 2 little boys.
