    DarkStrider is the winner with three. A Will-0-the-Wisp goes to him.

    Mauro, if you had added an s to America you would have had the four.

    There is one major swamp in Brazil, SA. Pantanal Or something like that.

    Obviously it was the Pink Floyd's debut album, "The piper at the gates of dawn", but AFAIK he had also a small contribution to the band's second album, "A saucerful of secrets".

    Um, OK.

    Irish band, U2, sang a song called "One Tree Hill." To what does the title of this song refer, and what is so notable about it?

    Would that be "One Tree Hill" in your home town per chance? Notable for the fact it only has one tree which was cut down by a Maori protester, replanted, and recently attacked by someone else.

    Carcaroth, that is close enough. One Tree Hill is a famous Auckland landmark. Most notable thing about it now is that it does not have a tree on it at all. U2 wrote the song in remembrance of one of their crew who was a New Zealander. If I'm not mistaken, this was the only country in which that song was released.

    Your turn.
