    Name That Tune

    Everyone here seems to enjoy music so I thought it would be interesting to see just how good everyone really is by starting a Name That Tune thread.

    I'll start it off by posting a small snippet of lyrics from a song and you folks take a shot at guessing the song and artist.
    Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
    New car, caviar, four star daydream,
    Think I'll buy me a football team
    Feel free to add your own lyrics to challenge the rest of us!

    Correct John!
    Pink Floyd
    Dark Side Of The Moon (1973)
    Money

    Money, get away
    Get a good job with more pay and you're O.K.
    Money, it's a gas
    Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
    New car, caviar, four star daydream,
    Think I'll buy me a football team

    Money, get back
    I'm all right Jack, but keep your hands off my stack.
    Money, it's a hit
    But don't give me that do goody good bull****
    I'm in the hi-fidelity first class traveling set
    And I think I need a Lear jet

    Money, it's a crime
    Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie
    Money, so they say
    Is the root of all evil today
    But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise
    that they're giving none away
    I have no clue who wrote John or Brendan's lyrics.

    Alf was the puppet star of a TV show some years back who fits the description: "Non human, big nose, dodgy hat!"

    Not really sure about the hat, though.

    He was an alien from a planet where cats were prized... as food.
    So far as I know, he never recorded anything.

    At first I though you might be thinking of "La La Means I Love You" by the Delfonics, but you have one too many la's for that one.

    Bonus question

    This song was made popular by three popular artists or groups. Name the tune and the three.
    Umbrella on her shoulder,
    a piece of paper in her hand,
    I heard her tell the captain turn loose my man.
