Q1. Where are these lyrics from?
"Hooray I awake from yesterday,
alive but the war is here to stay
So my love Catherina and me
decide to take our last walk thru the noise to the sea
Not to die but to be re-born
away from the lands so battered and torn..."

A1. "A merman I should turn to be"

Q6. Which two UK acts were the biggest money-makers in 2000?

A6. Beatles & Rolling Stones

The Sunday Mirror's British Rich List of the 100 biggest money-makers of 2000 was published on Thursday (Feb. 22) and the Beatles and Rolling Stones are sitting pretty at the top, according to the British tabloid.
