    Queen -- Bohemian Rhapsody?

    That mentions "mama mia let me go", thus the matriarch or mom and restraint.

    I don't think so, but now that song is stuck in my head.
    Merry Christmas, all!

    Don't get a sore neck.

    I guess you aren't familiar with 'Tie Your Mother Down' by Queen.

    Merry Christmas and the floor is open.

    Probably mostly busy.

    I'm thinking Jungle and Heal, but can't put anything together yet.

    My apologies, I need to revise my "clue" for the song title:
    Adam & Eve's playground suspended/ Restore to health

    Now I'm thinking Paradise Lost or something along those lines. By the way, you get some interesting links when you search for Adam & Eve.

    Oh dear... :o
    Simplify it to their "pre-sin" setting
    Think early '80s alternative, new wave, post-punk...

    Garden is correct for part of the song title.
    If something is suspended in air it is (The) _______ (Garden)
    The lead singer of the group (who I thought would be more obvious than the song title) is Robert Smith. :#

    Artist: Generic term for a man OR Canadian (male) sobriquet + The Super Bowl trophy (nearly)
    Title: Wizened* + In Rocky III, Clubber's surname + self-published periodical*

    * = spelling liberty taken

    This has actually been recorded by a decent number of artists but I think this may be the best known rendition...

    @schibsted750 I think it's safe to assume I'm correct. You can give clues for a new one if you'd like.
