It was indeed.
Your kick off.
Thank you...
Time for some music, which artist or band recorded the following mismeshed songs please :
1/ Was January, magic ?
2/ Hold on tight or you'll turn to stone!
3/ Was the lady the gambler ?
4/ I believe that I could turn back time.
5/ I dont want to talk about the downtown train.
6/ Are caravans good in January/February ?
7/ Did the night owl get it right next time ?
8/ You need to handle with care or its the end of the line!
9/ Do we belong in the shadows of the night ?
10/ I feel love on the radio.

9. Barbara Dixon/Dickson? (I remember the 'January/February' line from whatever the song was called but not the caravan reference).
Yes you are correct.
You are correct, its Barbara Dickson. She had a hit with Caravan in 1979/80.

Thank you.
Testing, testing... staying on the musical theme, an opening line from songs of the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s. Both artist and song needed for 1 point for each decade, please, and if only 1 part of the answer given is correct, I won't say so whether you're right or wrong (if that makes sense). I think the songs are well-known enough (I appreciate that can be subjective) and have been picked from my collection, randomly, although I had to reselect a couple of songs as the first line was the same as the title...
1960s: I saw her today at the reception
1970s: I...don't want to know your name
1980s: I'll stay with you until the end
1990s: Got your tape and it changed my mind
2000s: I'm all over my heart's desire

Clues for the two remaining artists:
1960s: I saw her today at the reception - The Rolling Stones, You Can't Always Get What You Want - @DaleCooper
1970s: I...don't want to know your name - The Sweet, Fox On The Run - @444045
1980s: I'll stay with you until the end - Blancmange, Don't Tell Me - @GRALISTAIR
1990s: Got your tape and it changed my mind - cryptic clue for the band's name would possibly be half a journey for a fast aircraft?
2000s: I'm all over my heart's desire - not the biggest selling number by this northern UK outfit but still well-known enough. Pacy and loud

Potential artist without song gets zero points, and v.v.
