I don't think it was Kate Bush. I thought it was more like an Elaine Paige type person. I could be wrong though. I could just google, I suppose...

Mid thirties? I'd say more like late twenties. They were only about ten, and that was around 1990ish.

Oh and did E17 have a 'STAY' too?

Gloria - Them / Patti Smith (Be a cold day in hell before I acknowledge the doors), U2 and Laura Brannigan.

Pulp recorded a Yesterday too. I'm sure there are plenty more. "Stay" was also the name of David Bowie single off Station to Station. That DJ fella Sash had a hit of the same name in the late nineties.

Along with Bowie.
Bernard Butler of Suede and McAlmont & Butler also had a nice Stay.
The Drifters one might have been Please Stay i'm unsure. Another Bacharach classic.

The third Power of Love also in 1985 was by Jennifer Rush.

Here's a few from the American charts

I LOVE YOU

People from 1968
Volume's from 1962
Donna Summer from 1978

and I am sure there are a heck of a lot more. If you include songs that include I LOVE YOU as part of the title you could complete a whole album!

and from the charts over here
YELLO


another FIRE or two
U2, The Pointer Sisters( written by The Boss)

EVERLASTING LOVE
Robert Knight/Love Affair
Andy Gibb

THE BEST OF MY LOVE

The somehing happens is called 'Parachute'.

House of Pain had a 'Jump' ...or was it 'Jump, Jump'?

Apparently every song but the title track of U2s All that you can't leave behind had a title taken from some other song ...not deliberately ...just lack of imagination.

I've always loved the way Half Man Half Biscuit can take the p1ss out of other peoples titles

We Built this City on Rock'n'Roll - We Built This Village on a Trad. Arr. Tune

Oh yeah. Elevation was a Television song. And didn't Kate Bush do a song called Kite?

Atmosphere is the best one yet! Could you get two songs with the same name that were more different? :D :D
