Answer: McFly

This song is about talking to your partner and how you deal with problems in a relationship. Being honest and trying to solve any problem you have by talking. In the song, it sounds if his partner is accusing him of messing around. He then goes on to explain he's not and don't listen to other people. Basically the song is telling people to work your way through any relationships by talking and being truthful.

"That's the Truth" was taken from the band's fifth studio album "Above the Noise" released in 2010. The boys formed the band in London in 2003. The name of the band came from the blockbuster film "Back to the Future" (1985). The first studio album by McFly was called "Room on the 3rd Floor" (2004) which was a number one hit on the UK Album Chart.

Answer: Eagles

Don Henley and Glenn Frey wrote the song "Lyin' Eyes". The track was from the band's fourth studio album, "One of These Nights". According to Don and Glenn, at the time, they were eating at one of their favourite restaurants in Los Angeles. The pair were talking about women who were engaged in adultery and having a bit on the side.

While in the restaurant, an older man who was over weight and looked like a high roller was with a very beautiful young woman by his side. Glenn said to Don to look at her, "She can't even hide those lyin' eyes." So the lyrics of the song came about from a visit to the restaurant and what they saw and what they had been talking about.

Answer: Elton John and Kiki Dee

"Don't Go Breaking My Heart" was released on 25 June 1976. The song was written by Elton and long-time friend and co-writer Bernie Taupin, although the pair wrote under the pseudonyms "Ann Orson" and "Carte Blanche" for this single.

The song tells the story of a couple of lovers who break up but wish to remain friends. The song is not based on real events between John and Kiki. In the song, the male asks that the breakup should be smooth and not nasty and to remember the good times. In the first verse, the male asks, "Don't go breaking my heart". The reply was, "I couldn't if I tried". He then asks, "Oh, honey, if I get restless", and the reply was, "Baby, you're not that kind".

The next verse goes on as they exchange glances filled with unspoken understanding; they both realise that while their paths may go in a different directions, the bond they've forged will remain a cherished part of their lives. With a soft smile, they promise to support each other, no matter where life takes them next.

The song features a catchy tune that is easy to sing along to. It reached number one on both the US Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Singles Chart.

Answer: Bananarama

Bananarama are an English all-girl pop group formed in London in 1980. The song was released on 12 September 1988. "Love, Truth and Honesty" was the lead single from the girls' "Greatest Hits Collection" album released in 1988. Not one of the best songs from the girls, as it only had moderate success compared to other songs from the band.

The song's lyrics are about a woman who knows her lover has been cheating on her. The song begins with the journey of self-discovery; she learns to embrace her vulnerabilities and recognise the strength within her. Through this painful experience, she finds the courage to let go of what no longer serves her and opens herself up to the possibility of a more genuine and fulfilling love in the future.

Answer: Brenda Lee

Well, this song is going back in time. "I'm Sorry" was an early hit in 1960 from a 16-year-old called Brenda Lee. The song topped the charts on the US Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number 12 on the UK Singles Chart. Because of her age, the record was held back for a few months. Her record label, Decca Records, thought maybe due to her age, she wasn't mature enough to sing about this type of emotion.

The song is about a young woman or teenager who has her heart broken from a broken relationship. She feels she has been betrayed by her partner, but is in love with him. When she breaks up with her partner, she feels sadness for breaking up with him, but it was her decision.

In the song, she sings, "But love is blind, and I was too blind to see." Later in the song, she tells her partner she is sorry, and please accept her apology.
