        Fleshing it out a little, QQ is the stage name of Kareem Dawkins, who had a hit in Jamaica at the age of 10 with "Poverty". The other two songs are more recent.

        You are invited to rush onwards with an R.

            Perhaps teamsaint should also provide the next puzzle.

                Work is V busy right now, but I'll set a quick and easy one, and try to keep up.

                An R that Links some Bells, a suburban London cockerel , and Scott's Old Man.

                ( Two musical, one not, just to help things along).

                      Scott's Old Man was himself as the ghost of Stalin.

                          Are the bells the bells of Rhymney?

                          Alternatively they could be Rachmaninoff's.

                          My guess is the latter and that the R is Russia.

                          I don't understand the other bit - If it is suburban, I doubt it is linked to Spurs.

                            Teamwork going well chaps.

                            The answer is right, but the last element requires revelation.

                            A Good clue would be television.

                                I'd say yes, but I'd be lying.( never knew about that though !!)
