80s Lyrics Thread 3

[Honeyroar]

Anyone still want to play?
Try and guess the 80s song from the lyrics

So much for your promises
They died the day you let me go

@Honeyroar

It’s true. I took our love for granted all along. And trying to explain where I went wrong.

Jim Diamond - I Should Have Known Better?

@SingingBabooshkaBadly 

I see you recognised Musclebound too - are you a fan too?

@RiftGibbon what @SingingBabooshkaBadly said 😜

Babooshka Shattered Dreams by Jonny Hates Jazz.

Would I have followed down my chosen road
Or only wished what I could be?

@KatherineJaneway correct.🙂

@wowfudge 👍🏼

@SeasideArms I might have been a bit of a New Romantic back in the day. 😉 I remember going to Miss Selfridge to buy Spandau style tartan trousers!

Wowfudge, is it keeree?

I think by Mr Mr?

I think you’re right ssd.

And the eyes of the world are watching now, watching now.

Watching them come and go
The Templars and the Saracens
They're travelling the holy land
Opening telegrams

@ssd - yes Kyrie by Mr Mister

Sorry, I have been out, making a bubble! Yes, it was muscle-bound! Spandau Ballet (well, Tony Hadley) came from the area I grew up in, as did Madness, so it feels like a tribute to North London posting their lyrics.

Kyrie by Mr Mister

I love that song!

And so I face the wall
Turn my back against it all
How I wish I’d been unborn
Wish I was unliving here

Intrigued by what kind of bubble you made Rift!

Honey I think yours is Eurythmics - I can just hear Annie Lennox (one of my friends was a big fan).

The bubble - a friend who has been shielding for 3 weeks pre-lockdown and lives alone - we finally caught up in person today. It was lovely.

I have seen you as the oppressed ,
and i have seen you as the oppressor ,
now youve come of age this century ,
I know now you want to be free

Oh I see Rift. Aw I bet that was wonderful.

Yes it’s Eurythmics. Did you work out which one?

If that's the Eurythmics then it must be Sex Crime due to the lyrics.

It was.👍

Life is a game of chances
So I'll take my chance with you
And you, I won't try to change

That's the first one I know I know in ages.

Can't think what it is

Will have to wait for someone else

Dub be good to me.

Can’t think of artist but it was on Radio 2 the other day.
