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

Different song

Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone
All you do is think

Ah that's another Bon Jovi one - Blaze of Glory (? It goes shot down in a blaze of glory ... might not be the title)

Ah that's another Bon Jovi one - Blaze of Glory (? It goes shot down in a blaze of glory ... might not be the title)

You're right its not😉

Sorry i meant wrong song if its not clear.

I think it’s Dead or Alive.

Honey is right, Dead Or Alive but totally get why you said blaze of glory.

Close enough! Wanted Dead or Alive.😄

Both cowboy style.👨🏼‍🌾

She moves like she don't care
Smooth as silk, cool as air

Maria - blondie

Yes @Devoilmum

[quote Honeyroar]@Iggi999 correct! Yes I’m sure Gary Barlow wrote that actually- well he’s have done a lockdown online duet with them if he could! (sorry Prosecco!😘)[/quote]
That's so funny. In 2 posts I mis-gendered nina simone and confused gary Barlow with kurt Cobain.
I'm going g to have to slink off the thread and hide

A sea of faces in a crowded cafe / A sound of laughter as the music plays

1970s

Lyrics are a bit thin on the ground round here.

Pretty sure this one of mine is still unclaimed. I’ve added a few more lines but I’m starting to think maybe this song just isn’t that well known.

It’s from the 90s.

Is there someone else?
Or am I too familiar?
Was it when I said I wanted to have children?
Tore up all your photos,
Didn't feel too clever,
Spent the whole of Sunday
Sticking you together.
Now I'd like to call you,
But I feel too awkward.
Some things need explaining,
No-one told me it was raining.

Prosecco did anyone guess that one of yours with the lovely lyrics? You said it’s often used at funerals.

And one from the late 70s.

And she takes all the red, yellow, orange and green
And she turns them into black and white

When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away

1976

I haven't recognised any for ages
I might put some easier ones on!

Is that More than a Feeling Fleamaker?

Should have said by Boston.

Oh, yes please to some easier ones please!

The only one I know has been taken! Ways finger at Babooshka 😞

Yes it is @SingingBabooshkaBadly

I thought mine was easy!

Both of us together in a room by ourselves
I sneeze to look around
But there's no escape

Your wish is my command - easy!

I'm gonna get myself 'cross the river
That's the price I'm willing to pay
I'm gonna make you stand and deliver
And give me love in the old-fashion way woh

That's Going gets tough ( or Go and get stuffed as my dad heard it)
