She likes me for me
Not because I look like Tyson Beckford
With the charm of Robert Redford oozing out my ears

She likes me for me
Not because I hang with Leonardo
Or that guy who played in "Fargo"
I think his name is Steve

... and so on.

I'm striking Another Brick In The Wall of the list as it was released in 1979 and is not a ballad. :)

Good work on Another Brick in the Wall I saw it yesterday and thought to myself "It's a British band, but it's not a ballad".
I am querying the inclusion of Careless Whisper. In the UK and Australia and I'm pretty sure in other parts of Europe it was released as a George Michael solo song, however in America it was released as Wham! because the record company thought they would get more sales if it was released as Wham! (at the time, the record company thought the fans wouldn't recognise the name George Michael :rolleyes: ). So does it still count as a British Band ballad even though it is really only credited to one half of the band :confused:
