@Fleamaker123

Can't you find something else to talk about? Is this song the only song you sing?
Criticize. Can't think of his name. Smarmy git. Little moustache, very smug.

@Fleamaker123 Criticize by Alexander O'Neal.

NeedToKnow101 · 11/06/2020 20:34

What I want, you've got
But it might be hard to handle

NeedToKnow101 · 11/06/2020 20:35

Don't dis Alexander O'Neal! I used to have his tape. Loved it back in the day.. didn't get the song though Blush

And don't forget When your elders forget To say their prayers Take them by the legs And throw them down the stairs
Siouxsie!!!!!!!!! Spellbound?
NeedToKnow101 · 11/06/2020 20:37

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies - yes!!! Brilliant song!

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 11/06/2020 20:46

Sorry to be rude, NeedToKnow. Not my thing, but no offence meant.

I don't think I know the other song, though

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 11/06/2020 20:47

I 💕 Siouxsie. Saw her not that long ago. Fucking fabulous!

Fleamaker123 · 11/06/2020 21:07

Alexander O'Neal... Just a good bit of classic 80's cheese Grin

NeedToKnow101 · 11/06/2020 21:16

That's ok Prosecco no offence taken. I'll add to my other one:

'What I want, you've got
But it might be hard to handle
Like the flame that burns the candle
The candle feeds the flame yeah yeah'

Iggi999 · 11/06/2020 21:53

I was sittin' all alone
Watching people get it on with each other
They were dancing 'cross the floor
Turning, moving back and forth, they were lovers

(Early 80s)

NeedToKnow101 · 11/06/2020 22:02

@Iggi999 - I know this! I really want to cheat and google but I won't.

Hall And Oates - You Make My Dreams Come True?
ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 12/06/2020 07:58

Noone got this one...

You've got me turning to another man
Called you on the phone

Did it get missed, or do you need more lyrics?

NeedToKnow101 · 12/06/2020 08:29

@KatherineJaneway - correct!!

NeedToKnow101 · 12/06/2020 08:34

You know you and I were together
I was so in love with you
But there was a little bit
Too much sugar and you were little too sweet

NeedToKnow101 · 12/06/2020 08:36

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies - need more lyrics..

Honeyroar · 12/06/2020 10:09

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies that’s Last night a DJ saved my Life (as usual I don’t know who sang it!)

Honeyroar · 12/06/2020 10:15

So let’s be together for all of the time
And thank our good fortune that you are still mine

Modern Romance - Best Years of Our Lives

Not long ago I could feel your strength and your devotion
What was so clear is now overcast with mixed emotions

Honeyroar · 12/06/2020 11:22

Nothing that you can say
Will change how I feel today
I know that we’ll never part
