Oooh warm. Second word SMILES is good. Go back to the clue for the first word.

'Of unbreakable value'. you're nearly there

Not making any headway here Martin ! In it's singular form , there are some belters

UNCERTAIN SMILE THE THE
MAKE ME SMILE STEVE HARLEY AND COCKNEY REBEL
SARA SMILE HALL AND OATES


It's the plural form that's flummoxing me !

Good good

Though that give-away does rather narrow the field to a thin strip of grass.

Weather's mild tonight...

Fragile Smiles ??? (WTF??)

WTF indeed...??!

The follow-up to a massive number one in 1979, the song you're looking for tells the story of a glamorous debutante who commits suicide during a party

Traffic's wild tonight...

Smile(s), thin blade of grass, and WTF, indeed the distance between hissing is of unbreakable value much like my head banging against the ground in frustration over this one

Got it.. at last ... I couldn't remember the lyrics but the follow up to massive number 1 clinched it ..

NB I googled to check the lyrics.. does it still count?

In the late 70's this sleazy mendacious "left wing" politician offered to take us all higher (2,5 ;3,2)

I don't know any sleazy mendacious "left wing" politicians!

Gizza clue!

Awww maaahn! I've been searching for songs with diamond, crystal, and emerald in the title but never came across or even heard of that one by the Rats, wonder why, was it a flop? if it hadn't been for the 'one syllable only' in second word (wasn't convinced it was 'smiles' - thought that was red herring) I was holding out for something like this obscure number: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4W1CvydvWE
