Quite so, Scorcher. I'll update the questions once a few more people have a chance to read the list without answers. My problem now is that, having dug up some old memories, the tunes keep going around-and-around in my brain.

As indeed does the tune and synthesized voice in question 2! Archie or very similar?

Is No. 3 The Lady swallowed the goat but she swallowed the cow to eat the goat?
Sorry don't remember Nos 1 and 2 knew 4 and 5 though. Obviously showing my age, but there again my kids (in their 20s) know all these songs as well!!
Probably wrong!

...and pretty sure that Cheers is on track with the Burl Ives number !

No. 2- Sparky

There was an old woman who swallowed a goat and Sparky had a magic piano. Well done. A clue for No. 1 - the band were hot pursuit of that (alleged) villain Sid, although there was a popular public campaign that insisted he was innocent.
