Don't fence me in...

Bryan Burnett | 19:50 UK time, Tuesday, 15 March 2011

Wednesday night's theme could end up being a bit sinister. I'm looking for your suggestions of the pop stars who get a bit too close for comfort. From One Way Or Another to Every Breath You Take, it's the songs of love that are freak you out just a little bit! I found a website called 'Ten love songs that sound like stalkers' which was a revelation. When you see songs like Hopelessly Devoted To You written down you realise that the lyrics have a creepy intensity that doesn't really come over in Olivia Newton John's version. The worst offender is Barry Manilow's Can't Smile Without You. Try reading the lyrics for that chorus and not feeling like you want to double lock your door!
