80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 4

[ProseccoBubbleFantasies]

Put up a line or two from a song for people to guess.

For example:

Is there anybody out there trying to get through?
My eyes are so cloudy I cant see you

Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
Gonna grab some xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx
My motto's always been 'when it's right, it's right'
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night?
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day
And we know the night is always gonna be there any way

Is that There will never be another tonight by Brian Adams?

I’m amazed some of the regulars haven’t got mine yet.

@Honeyroar - I know this one of yours.. 'Night after night she lay alone in bed
Her eyes so open to the dark'

But I can't remember what it's called or who it's by!? (Pointless post!)

It carries on -
The streets all looked so strange
They seemed so far away

What era?
I pride myself in being a bit of a music geek of the 80s and 90s but I'm useless with lyrics!

Been out all day. Didn't need the two extra lines. I know (and adore it) that's Charlotte sometimes by the cure

xsquared - Afternoon Delight by Starland Vocal Band

The is wowfudge. Too obscure for me!

Yes! It’s Charlotte Sometimes. (was early 80s)

My head is stuck on something precious
Let me know - if you’re coming down to land

From the park I hear jamming/marley's hot on the box/tonight there will be a party/on the corner at the end of the block....

Planet earth, Honey. Duran duran

@Willow2017 👍

We're talking away
I don't know what
I'm to say I'll say it anyway

Oh, one I know!

Take on me but A-Ha

@xsquared 👍

Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep

1980s

Tears for fears. Everybody wants to rule the world

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies 👍

I saw him dancin' there by the record machine
I knew he must a been about seventeen
The beat was goin' strong
Playin' my favorite song

Early 80s

I love Rock & Roll - Juan Jett

Aargh my phone🤣 Joan!!

@Destroyedpeople is yours Stevie Wonder Jammin?

Honey roar. ...Stevie wonder yes!! The track is called 'master blaster ' but it prob should be called 'jammin'

You should see me, when you're not around.
I'm a genius in this town.
