Put up a line or two from an 80s song for people to guess.

Starting you off with...

you feel the cold hand
And wonder if you'll ever see the sun

Angel face, I love your smile, Love your ways, I like your style. What can I do to get closer to you?
Hands up Ottawa?

Life is so hard
Needlessly
No fairy tales
Tell me am I history?
A broken heart if you say good-bye.

And one more...

No matter what you do or say
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you anyway

I have lost and found, it's my final mistake/'Cos she's loving by proxy, no give and all take

NetDesMamans1 · 04/06/2020 00:40

@proseccobubble - isn't that Ebenezer Goode? Certainly not '80s!

NetDes yes, my mistake. But, urm.... there may have been a few more lyrics after that one that are 80s.

That's not patsy kensit, is it???? Or 8th wonder?

"I don't care" from that film. Odd film. David bowie was in it and her and someone else.

That's probably totally wrong

I want you as the dream
Not the reality
That closing goodbye kiss could fool me

I just died in your arms tonight by Cutting Crew (there are brackets in there somewhere!)
Iggi999 · 04/06/2020 08:49

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies a game attempt, but no! Male singer, model really. Think launderette.

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 04/06/2020 09:05

Oh, Nick Kamen then. I don’t remember the name of the song.

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 04/06/2020 09:12

We'll leave the T.V. and the radio behind
Don't you wonder what we'll find

wowfudge · 04/06/2020 09:33

Babooshka that's Stepping Out by Joe Jackson.

The Nick Kamen one is Each time we say goodbye I think.

NeedToKnow101 · 04/06/2020 09:43

Living isn't everything,
But you know the feeling love can bring,
Cause a, when you're floating through your cloud,
Worry, but don't shout too loud (Oh baby)

NeedToKnow101 · 04/06/2020 09:49

'you thought i was a doughnut
you tried to glaze me'

This was Eric B. and Rakim - Eric B. is President

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 04/06/2020 10:37

wowfudge - yes!

NeedToKnow. - I don’t think I know that song. This thread is really showing the gaps in my musical knowledge!

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 04/06/2020 10:44

The Eric B one I mean - remains to be seen if I know the one you posted but I certainly don‘t recognise the lyrics.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 04/06/2020 11:31

Would you like to marry me?
And if you like you can buy the ring
I don't dream about anyone - except myself!

Devoilmum · 04/06/2020 11:35

You play with words you play with love
You can twist it around baby that ain't enough
