Correct! (Technically you guessed twice on the same clue, but I was past due to post another, so let’s assume this would have been your guess anyway.)

Clue #1: Coming Home - A reference to the lyric “Coming back to London on a 747”.

Clue #2: A B-52 - Another name for a beehive hairdo, referencing the lyric “beehive hairdo”.

Clue #3: Here’s my gun for a barrel of fun - A reference to the lyrics “.45 on the hip [...] then back to the bedroom for some house arrest”, and “Khaki jacket and a love gun / Baby, I surrender, let’s have some fun”

Clue #4: Matrix before The Matrix - Before the release of The Matrix, Arnold Schwarzenegger played a character named John Matrix in the movie Commando, a reference to the lyric “Commando raid on the Lebanese border”.

Clue #5: (View attachment 11104) - A reference to the lyric “sprained my right” (and also “broke my left leg” in the original Skyhooks version).

Clue #6: Edina Monsoon after the police academy? - Edina Monsoon was played by Jennifer Saunders. After going to the police academy, she would be a reference to the lyric “Patrolwoman Saunders, don’t you give her no whip”.

Clue #7: Iron Maiden has played this song on Top Of The Pops - Self-explanatory.

Your turn!
