80s Lyrics Thread 3

[Honeyroar]

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

One more heartbeat and you walk the wire
Why wait? Ooh, it's too late to put out the fire
Almost strangers, can you stop deceiving
Start believing

I saw Howard Jones live .

This thread gives you ear worms . It should come with a public health warning.

@KatherineJaneway
Yes

@KatherineJaneway @Fleamaker123 of course!!! Tra la la!

If you'd have said... dum... dum... de dum dum
Dum dum dum dum... I may have got it 😂

Somebody I never met but in a way I know
Didn’t think you could get so much from a picture show

E= mc2

Big Audio Dynamite

@honey

Yes! Very quick.

One of my favourite lines

Do you remember the cherry blossom in the market square, do you remember I thought it was confetti in our hair?
By the way, didn't I break your heart....

(Too easy I'm sure)

Lol, thank you honey :)

Is it Kayleigh - Marillion ?

Bend I think that's Kayleigh by Marillion

Kayleigh

Down in the street there is violence
And a lot of work to be done

Oh my god, I loved Fish.

And David Sylvian. I obviously did not have a
Type!

Honey -
Electric Avenue... Eddie errrrr errrrr

@honey

That's Electric Avenue by Eddie Grant

...Grant!

Baby don’t understand
Why we can’t just hold on
To each other’s hand

@RiftGibbon - has anyone got the hip hop one? Is it Fresh Prince or Dougie Fresh?

Needto it is Doug E Fresh. Do you know the song? I think it was one of the first hip-hop things I heard.

These are heavy times, all clamps and parking fines, there's too much north there's too much south, there's too much of the knaves versus the spades

The first place it was used was over East London
It was respect for the different style pronunciation
But it wasn't really used by any and any man
Mi say strictly conman, also the villain

Still no takers for this? I’ll add a bit more:
The ladies love me, girls adore me, like even the ones that never saw me ...,

Rift - I think it's 6 minutes? I often sing that bit when I'm boiling an egg 😂😂

Lil, that sounds like LL Cool J, but that's just a wild guess...
