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

I know that, but I’ll pipe down for now.

This is probably too easy, but it’s another favourite lyric...

‘We’re living in a powder keg and giving off sparks.’

such a lust for life, the circus comes to town
we are the hungry ones on a lightning raid

I think that one is quite hard.

I'm not allowed to guess yours Willow because I have, literally, just looked up the lyrics of that song because I was going to quote from it for on here.

But I know it, and I loved it when I was a teen.

OP posts:
Honeyroar · 31/05/2020 20:14

Yes @WarmSausageTea it was Love & Pride

Willow2017 · 31/05/2020 20:16

Previous page that still hasnt been sussed?
But neither of them are Foreigner

or my half post above?

Honeyroar · 31/05/2020 20:18

Lol at I Owe you Nothing. When my flat mates and I decided we were too cool for pop and started liking The Cure and going to Rock City one girl decided to get rid of everything pop she had. There was a 12” of Bros, we ran it over with the car, cooked it in the oven, everything, but it wouldn’t break and it still played!!

I'm only drinking water. Honest!

Thought I'd bring this over from the old thread-

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

*trying to regain some cool after recognising some Bros lyrics
