Long time since we've had one of these, so below are 20 singles that have reached the UK top 40 from it's inception in 1953.

For example :-

LMD by TB

would be Love Me Do by The Beatles.

Couple of Rules :-
If there are two answers, then my answer is final. Also, I will tend to use "The" for groups where appropiate. Otherwise, the above would be LMD by B. Geddit ?

If so, here's 20 to get ya thinkin !

1) P by ONJ - Physical by Olivia Newton John - Radford Red
2) RYB by GM - Rock Your Baby by George McCrae - Radford Red
3) SOWK by K - Somewhere Only we Know by Keane - Foxinthebox
4) TIMS by TT - Twist in my Sobriety by Tanita Tikaram - Shaggy365
5) TLIR by CDB - The Lady in Red by Chris De Burgh - Murf
6) TBT by TBG - The Bad Touch by The Bloodhound Gand - Ave a banana
7) CFC by S - Cool for Cats by Squeeze - Canary Yellow
8) CBAS by PY - Come Back and Stay by Paul Young - Radford Red
9) SSS by TC - She Sells Sanctuary by The Cult - Ave a banana
10) DB by DAAC - Double Barrel by Dave and Ansil Collins - Ave a banana
11) MQ by MM Might Quinn by Manfred Mann - Surprised
12) LIAB by PB Love is a Battlefiled by Pat Benatar - Foxinthebox
13) NEH by DA Nothing Ever Happens by Del Amitri - Nigel1305
14) IWYL by TV - I Want Your Love by Transvision Vamp - Canary Yellow
15) ISBY by GA - Ill Stand by You by Girls Aloud - Canary Yellow
16) MTAF by B - More Than a Feeling by Boston - Shaggy365
17) DDAN by TF - Decent Days and Nights by The Futurheads - Foxinthebox

I was guessing the title, struggled with the band as I thought it was Living in a Box as well.
