[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

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies
@Honeyroar
It's Stiltskin

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies yes it’s called Inside. By Stiltskin. Was a Levi’s advert too, I think. I actually think I liked it more than Nirvana, but can’t remember anything else they did (perhaps didn’t have a singer that people fancied!(

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies @Destroyedpeople 👍

To be fair, Honey, kurt Cobain was very fanciable. And I liked nirvana a lot.

Siltskin! Yes. And I can remember the advert now. Was it black and white? Done like a wild west thing

Fallin' free fallin' free fallin' free fallin' free

1970s but covered in later decades

Yes it was black and white with two innocent Shaker type ladies seeing a Levi bloke bathing in a river. They stole his jeans, so they could watch him come out naked, but it turned out he still had his jeans on as they were shrink to fit jeans, and the ones they’d stolen belonged to an old man.

Funny what sticks in your mind. That was my first year at uni and I can’t remember much of what I learned, but I can remember an advert!!🤣

Wasn’t Free falling the title! Or have I fallen into a trap.

Free falling - Tom Petty

shakes head sadly and sighs

(a) I wouldn't put the title up for you to guess the title
(b) that is NOT how free falling goes.

Gotcha both.

Try again!

She'll take a tumble on you
Roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue

Early 80s

Shes got bette Davis eyes
Kim carnes (sp????)

Bette Davies Eyes?

Yes, Bette Davies Eyes, Kim Carnes

Show me round your fruit cakes
'Cause I will be your honey bee
Open up your fruit cakes
Where the fruit is as sweet as can be

1980s

Sledgehammer Peter Gabriel

Sledgehammer Peter Gabriel...cool video as I recall..

Oh wow, so quick!

Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man?

For we who grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the mushroom cloud
1980s

Missed ones I knew again!! (Too busy oggling Axl in those tiny whiteys!😶)

Coffee. Pour some sugar on me. Is that by def leppard??? I'm having a moment

Willow. That's queen. Hammer to dall

Fall. Gah! Fat fingers!

@Prosecco 👍

Where were you last night?
You look as if you had a fight
Where were you last night?

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

Fallin' free fallin' free fallin' free fallin' free

1970s but covered in later decades

C'mon. NOT tom petty.

Massively different style.

I'm trying to think who covered it later. Possibly Marc almond. That could be totally wrong
