Hint-
The mystery man was one half of a fairly popular singing duo in the mid 1960's. A first name will suffice for the answer.

Good Doctor- I wasn't sure, cause I didn't know if the Jerky Boys were well known on the other side of the pond!

A lyrics question, because my imagination is gone, name the band (well known) and song (not so well known):
" I like every second, so long as you are on my mind
Every moment has its special charm
It's all right when you're around, rain or shine "

Robert Smith, was for a short period of time in the band Siouxsie and the Banshees. Name another former member who went on to become a huge star in a legendary band?

I'm gonna take issue with Gilli again! Unless I'm very much mistaken, Sid was in an incarnation called The Flowers of Romance (as reffed in the later PiL song). I demand a recount!
