80s Lyrics Thread 3

[Honeyroar]

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

I came from the sky like a 747
I'm the bad boy baby I fell out of heaven
Sex fuhrer baby I'm a love dictator
Blitzkrieg romance I'm a cool dominator

Hooray! Yes to both. I love Tower of Strength, probably one of my all time faves. And Echo Beach was fab too. Was it Annie Nightingale who often used to play it?

Yes I think it might've been Annie N. Tower of Strength will be played at my wedding if I have one.

Me too Babooshka badly. Everyone seems to go to bed later than me and I miss loads I could’ve got at night!

All the streets are crammed with things
Eager to be held
I know what hands are for
And I'd like to help myself

London, Hamburg, Paris, Rome
Rio, Hong Kong, Tokyo

fleamaker All Over the World by ELO

Sway through the crowd to an empty space

@Bluesheep8 is that one Sigue Sigue Sputnik, Love Missile F1- something or other?

And yes, it was Handsome Devil - way too easy but it has great lyrics!

Snooker Loopy was a shocker, I can't imagine these songs being made now.

This is one of mine from the previous thread which is still o/s

Have you ever seen a show with fellas on the mic
With one minute rhymes that don't come out right
They bite, they never write, that's not polite
Am I lying?
No, you're quite right
Well tonight on this very mic you're about to hear
We swear, the best darn rappers of the year

If it isn't obvious, it's one from the emergence of hiphop - this one had lots of samples, and one I understand was withdrawn from later mixes of the song.

riftgibbon no it's not.....

It’s up to you
All I can do I’ve done

All I can manage
To push from my lips
Is a string of absurdities

Pointer Sisters - Automatic Fleamaker

The ladies love me, girls adore me...

Yes @wowfudge

Blue - it's annoying me now! :)

Ahhh. Brilliant thread! Perfect for me,
I've been ill in bed for 3 days and am rewatching Ashes to Ashes so I've got LOADS!!!

Anyone know this one?

My, my, sun is pie
There's fodder for the cannons
And the guilty ones can all sleep safely
All sleep safely
