Bee Gees - Spirits Having Flown
Chicane ft Byran Adams - Don't Give Up
DJ Tiesto - Euphoria
Elvis Costello - Accidents Can Happen
Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out

This was done by going through my iTunes/iPod library alphabetically and picking one song from each letter. Unfortunately half the songs are from compilation albums so are just listed as 'Various Artists', but I managed to get most of the letters anyway:

ABBA - Does Your Mother Know
Beatles - Hello, Goodbye (although Penny Lane has lyrics that fit Deal or No Deal incredibly spookily)
Clock - Whoomph! There It Is
DJ Sakin and Friends - Protect Your Mind
Erasure - Lay All Your Love On Me
Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Two Tribes
Gina G - Ooh Aah Just A Little Bit (a song I hated as a 7 year old but is now a firm favourite on my iPod)
Happy Clappers - I Believe
INXS - Need You Tonight (ok I don't actually have this on my iPod, but I don't have any beginning with 'I' on there I think...yet!)
Junior Senior - Move Your Feet
KLF - 3am Eternal
Love City Groove - Love City Groove
Mika - Lollipop
No Mercy - Where Do You Go
Oasis - All Around The World
Pet Shop Boys - Where The Streets Have No Name (Can't Take My Eyes Off You)
Queen - Don't Stop Me Now
Robyn with Kleerup - With Every Heartbeat
Scissor Sisters - I Can't Decide
T-Spoon - Sex On The Beach
UB40 - Red Red Wine
Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony
Watergate - Heart of Asia
XTM - Fly On The Wings Of Love (again, not on my iPod but I still like it)
Yazz - The Only Way Is Up
Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 400 (see I and X).

Woo! That's given away my taste in cheesy music a bit I might do another one in the future, if I can be bothered!

Doing the same with my PC songlist (I tried as much as I could from memory but without managing all 26 it was kinda pointless), this might be better, and deliberately contains no artists duplicated...

The KMGs - Love Power
Lightning Seeds - Marvellous
My Chemical Romance - Helena
N-Trance - Forever
OMD - Enola Gay
Piero & The MusicStars - Celebrate! [First ever nil points in Eurovision qualifiers ever, and hence arguably the worst Eurovision song of all time. Comedy!]
Queen feat. David Bowie - Under Pressure [I suppose this has to count...]
The Rasmus - Funeral Song
Secret Garden - Dawn of a New Century
Texas - Getaway
Underworld - Born Slippy
Vision - Close Minded
White Town - Your Woman
Xandee - 1 Life
Yellowcard - Way Away
