NB HINTS only should be given, no answers please.

THE THEME
Requests may be made here for GENTLE NUDGES towards the theme. Please do NOT reveal the theme under any circumstances.

Early finishers should avoid any allusions - light-hearted or otherwise - that may give away too much.

Remember, the Listener is a unique puzzle, so treat it with the respect it deserves.

Quite fun, and a little more taxing than recent puzzles, with an unambiguous ending. Thanks, Elfman

From the lack of posts I doubt that I am alone in struggling with the endgame. I have a full grid apart from one cell, have identified the eight clues, know what's going on with the first lot and have definitions - but I haven't a scoobie what's going on with the second set or the name of the song -yet.

I ponder on.

For me, solving just one of the second set's clues revealed everything - but they're all pretty tough (spotting an anagram that would complete a synonym I'd been staring at for some time, did it for me) .

drxx, I have just solved one of the second set so now have some idea what might be going on.

planks - I am exactly in the same place as you other than I have no blank cells

drxx - I assume you are referring to an album title with the 3rd word of the clue being a definition of the other set?

...but there's no particular musical significance to this answer - any of the set of clues will do.
