NeedToKnow101 · 17/06/2020 22:31

I'll try and think of a cool one now 😎

NeedToKnow101 · 17/06/2020 22:38

You gotta go for what you know
To make everybody see, in order to fight the powers that be

NeedToKnow101 · 17/06/2020 22:38

I don't have to sell my soul

NeedToKnow101 · 17/06/2020 22:39

Easy peasy lemon squeezy (that's not lyrics, it's a comment 🤓)

CoffeeBeansGalore · 17/06/2020 22:42

Apologies, I only knew the Flying Pickets version. I stand corrected 😊

lilgreen · 17/06/2020 22:46

Treat yourself to the superior, cooler and original @coffeebeansgalore

Did anyone get mine upthread?
I've been out and about today and haven't properly caught up.

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 17/06/2020 22:53

Yes @lilgreen (though it’s actually called Nobody’s Diary)

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies - that’s ok - I didn’t take it as a dig - and it really is what usually happens - I just got a lucky run today/yesterday! Smile

Well done on Experiment IV!

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

Uncool is the new cool on here, NeedToKnow101
In which case I give you:

I make-a T.V. shows and-a movies
Get-a myself a new car but still I be myself
I don't want-a to change a t'ing

lilgreen · 17/06/2020 23:06

Joe Dolce? What’s a matter you?

lilgreen · 17/06/2020 23:07

Ah yes Nobody’s Diary.

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 17/06/2020 23:17

@lilgreen are you pretending not to know the title to retain some cool? Grin Yes, it’s Joe Dolce but it’s called Shaddup u Face.

I remember being aggrieved that it kept Vienna off number one.

ssd · 17/06/2020 23:34

Rift, that's a hard one. Anymore clues?

ssd · 17/06/2020 23:37

Open up your loving arms
Watch out here I come

ssd · 17/06/2020 23:40

It's 8.15
And that's the time that it's always been

Iggi999 · 17/06/2020 23:42

Omd Enola Gay. Sad one!

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 17/06/2020 23:42

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 17/06/2020 23:42
