Song Titles Game - Part II

This is for all non-EC or peripheral-EC topics. We all know how much we love talking about 'The Man' but sometimes we have other interests.

"The Final Cut"= Pink Floyd not a particular fan of this act but for purposes of the game this one comes in handy. Always the other side of bombast for my ears.

If so, then

Young hearts run free - Candi Statton.

Is there a points scoring system here and if so, how does it work?

"Young at Heart"- The Bluebells-- I do not know VG. Probably lost in the mists of time some 7000 plus posts ago. Anyway you have conveniently given me the chance to utilize this old 'musty' one from back in the 80's- I think EC even touted them at one time- and I get another 'double' score-just upping the ante shall we say; as that gentleman who resided on Baker St stated-'the game is afoot'!
