80s song lyric thread 2

[ProseccoBubbleFantasies]

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

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies yes to Mary’s Prayer by Danny Wilson.
No to your other guess.

Bloody hell. I was going to put up a line from john Wayne is big leggy. I thought that would be pleasingly troublesome.

But I've just read the lyrics, and I can't bring myself to do it!

Ewwwww!

Instead I'll give you..

Seeing them in my dark cupboard
With my great big cake

Prosecco - that’s Happy Birthday by Altered Images

And if you don't know how to do it
Ask my little sis
Push your partner out (yeah)

It is indeed kemosabeimalone

@kemosabeimalone

Ok this is quite a tricky one I think:

Searching in my mind there's only two things I can find
I have one desire and that's to dance until you drop

Is that no peace for the wicked????

Thompson twins?

Damn, lilgreen. Hmmm. Not sure I know it in that case

Prosecco - nope ... clue it’s a sly one!

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies I’ll give you another line.
Twisting my bones until they snap

Sly &Robbie?

Can’t think of the song.

I need to get to work.( That’s not a song lyric!)

lilgreen - yep you got it! Boops by Sly and Robbie. Loving revisiting the clunky late 80’s video! Bit of a formative track for its time!

lilgreen Feels like heaven - Fiction Factory

Singing just 4 episodes. Actually i was wrong its on every night. So start tonight😀

@prosecco yours is called Do the Shuttlebug, very early 80's, don't know who sang it though

Do the Hucklebuck?

@kemosabeimalone

Ok this is quite a tricky one I think:

Searching in my mind there's only two things I can find
I have one desire and that's to dance until you drop

This one is Sly & Robbie - I think it's called Boops

Oh, just seen that's been solved. I'll go back to my cup of tea! :)

I offer you all this one...

She lives in this house over there
Has her world outside it
Scrabbles in the earth with her fingers and her mouth
She's five years old

Oh There’s a lot that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way

Honey ... frustrating!! I think I know the tune is it rock/ guitar based?

How about this? Clue it’s a Ken Bruce favourite!

Eye to eye stand winners and losers
Hurt by envy, cut by greed
Face to face with their own disillusions
The scars of old romances still on their cheeks

Rift - can we have a clue? What genre is it?
