Just thought I'd start a thread of guessing the song from the lyrics - they did it on a facebook group before and it was fun.
This isn't the easiest to start with:

"And I guess it took some time
For me to decide
If you were just my hero, or my friend?
Watching with my innocent eyes
Your silver stallion ride
Across my room I'd listen
As I cried.."
(cut to song title)

@NeedToKnow101 Cameo She's Stange Grin

She's the kind of person everybody knows
She reeks distinction from head to toe
She's my twilight zone, my Al Capone
She's my rolling stones and my Ava Perone

I hear a voice
I hear a sound
But nothing plays on my mind
I take the car
I travel 'round
But nothing stays on my mind

sure, you can prove anything with facts bovaryx Grin
true enough, slf were great live too;
was at the gig that pretty much the whole of hanx! was from.

@SoberCurious - correct!! I love Cameo so much still.

NeedToKnow101 · 31/05/2020 09:35

Guess the school disco classic ..

There's much room for passion, ooh-no-no
There's no room for fears
When, the love flows smoothly between us, baby

@NeedToKnow101

That's Move Closer by Phyllis Nelson

@TitsInAbsentia

Yes, it's my favourite Deacon Blue song :)

BendandBreak · 31/05/2020 10:29

I was taken by surprise, I was shattered by your eyes

BendandBreak · 31/05/2020 10:36

I think I know what you mean, and although it sounds obscene, I will always do my best to understand

NeedToKnow101 · 31/05/2020 10:37

@BendandBreak - yes and it is a bit creepy!

BendandBreak · 31/05/2020 10:43

What is wrong in my life that I must get drunk every night

NeedToKnow101 · 31/05/2020 10:54

I'll guess the Smiths Heaven Knows I'm miserable now, but I'm probably wrong Grin

I bet that concert was superb. Where did you see them? Fab band

BendandBreak · 31/05/2020 11:17

Not quite @NeedToKnow101 but I see your reasoning :)

SeasideArms · 31/05/2020 12:02

@shinynewapple2020 that's Ryan Paris, Dolce Vita Smile

All mine have been correctly ID'd so far.

Try this...
See that little Jersey girl in the see-through top
With the pedal pushers, sucking on a soda pop
Well I bet she's still a virgin but it's only twenty-five 'til nine

NeedToKnow101 · 31/05/2020 14:02

No-one got this of mine:

Thought I was a doughnut, you tried to glaze me

CrepuscularCritter · 31/05/2020 14:54

Bend - that's Fine Young Cannibals Johnny Come Home. Saw Roland Gift last summer and he was still in good voice.

BendandBreak · 31/05/2020 16:38

Sounds good @CrepuscularCritter

Such a tune tho!

BendandBreak · 31/05/2020 16:40
