      Crikey anton - bravo!

      Queens it ain't Caliban - there's a thing

      "Windmills of Your Mind" by Noel Harrison for Quixotic song, anton?

        Good job I didn't have the temerity to press on!

        Admit that Queen/s does fit the puzzle too....

        However I am happy that Lady G's anxieties have been allayed in the matter of Fenwicks.

          perhaps I should say Quixote(ic) and the noughties are the noughties of this young century.........

            As to songs it seems Slade, Sahotas, Cornershop, The Mighty Lemon Drops, Ned's Atomic Dustbin and Babylon Zoo came from Wolverhampton, as do soul/R&B singer Beverley Knight, drum and bass guru Goldie, and roots reggae maestro Macka B. If that's any help ..........

              Naught comes to mind

              You (and Anna too) may like to glance again at The Bridge thread to see something to your advantage...

              Is Her Ladyship likewise addicted to Danish criminality, anton?

                It's a link to the football team - seemingly this musical item was responsible for their rise from the Championship!!!

                  When I access Wolves songs ....... they are consisting of profanities, it seems, apart from Queen We Are the Champions and we know Queens is wrong. Time for a tinsy cluette?

                    The song, which I understand has been adopted as the club anthem, is from Man of La Mancha.

                      I'm still on the trail of PC - is that piano concerto?

                      a Romanian piano concerto with Quixote connections ?

                          oh so Quixote isn't the Q that connects everything ?

                          another Q for a Romanian piano concerto ?

                            No it's not Queen or Quixote.......................I think the song will, hopefully, unlock everything and your Q will be ended!
