“Seven years went under the bridge like time was fading fast”

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 18/06/2020 17:09

Is that something like if you leave lilgreen????. That might be wrong. Can't think who. Male band???

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 18/06/2020 17:11

I'll speak a little louder
I'll even shout

iknowimcoming · 18/06/2020 17:14

Devoilmum · 18/06/2020 17:37

@lilgreen OMD if you leave

CoffeeBeansGalore · 18/06/2020 17:59

Somebody told her that there was a place like heaven
Across the water on a 747

lilgreen · 18/06/2020 18:36

Yes If you leave by OMD from the film Pretty in Pink.

There was a time
A wind that blew so young
For this could be the biggest sky
And I could have the faintest idea

CoffeeBeansGalore · 18/06/2020 21:10

Expanding my last one:

Somebody told her that there was a place like heaven
Across the water on a 747
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world
And pretty soon she's really got the notion
Of flying out across the big blue ocean
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

Honeyroar · 18/06/2020 21:18

Nobody got mine from yesterday-

Waiting for the telephone to ring
And I’m wondering where she’s been

I’ll add another line-

And I’m crying for yesterday

@CoffeeBeansGalore is that ELO?

See her eyes they are bright tonight
See the stars coming out tonight
See the moon looking down tonight

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 18/06/2020 21:26

Hmmm. At first I thought it was (your) telephone. Specials? Fun boy 3?

But it's the cure, isn't it?10:15 Saturday night.

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 18/06/2020 21:28

Oooo. I know that shiney. Give me a minute. High voice

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 18/06/2020 21:32

I know it, but I can't seem to get to the title. Isn't that the chorus?

shinynewapple2020 · 18/06/2020 21:34

It's a sort of chorus , 4 lines repeated a few times to fade out at the end.
The title of the song is only mentioned once in it

NeedToKnow101 · 18/06/2020 21:34

Full moon in the city and the night was young
I was hungry for love, I was hungry for fun
I was hunting you down, and I was the bait

Honeyroar · 18/06/2020 21:35

Yes it’s 10.15.

@shiney is it a Soft Cell one?

OP posts:
Honeyroar · 18/06/2020 21:36

Something like See those eyes?

OP posts:
Honeyroar · 18/06/2020 21:37

@NeedToKnow101 is that Touch Me by Sam Fox?

@shinynewapple2020

See her eyes they are bright tonight See the stars coming out tonight See the moon looking down tonight
It's soft cell... is it bedsitter?
shinynewapple2020 · 18/06/2020 21:38

Yes it's soft cell

Any more takers for the title?

shinynewapple2020 · 18/06/2020 21:39

Not bed sitter

ssd · 18/06/2020 21:42
