"And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress, all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart"

Bluesheep8 · 06/06/2020 08:29

lilgreen yay! My favourite Duran Duran song. Any fellow fans of it should listen to the Simon Le Bon and the Sneaker Pimps live version.

How about this?

"It's the latest wave
That you've been craving for
The old ideal
Was getting such a bore
Now you're back in line
Going not quite quite as far
But in half the time"

I think I must have listened to some very odd/obscure stuff in the 80s.
