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

He came to town like a midwinter storm
He rode through the fields, so handsome and strong
His eyes was his tools and his smile was his gun
But all he had come for was having some fun

Cotton eye joe, coffee?

Quizhelper, on top of all the other suggestions, I'd add
9 to 5
Respect (the erasure song)
Wuthering heights
Toxic
Stayin' alive
Blame it on the boogie

All fab intros.

Good luck with your quiz

(And I'm not recommending this, but) there's a damned song called Antipope. Not one of their best tracks, but it starts with someone shouting "Bollocks!"
Which I always find very pleasing

I will let you know how it goes thanks all

A lady known as Sue
She lived all alone in linley lane
At number twenty-two

In the 70s, where it deserves to stay

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies 👍 correct Cotton Eye Joe by the Rednex

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies Ernie the fastest milkman in the west, Benny Hill

Grew up together, two kids in the park
Carved our initials deep in the bark

I'm impressed how quickly some people seem to get them! No one has answered this one yet:

Crazy sheep you are the odd one out,
Crazy sheep let them know what you're all about.

Love Meatloaf😉

Yep, that's the one. 1970s (I refuse to listen to the sweary later version )

We're so incredibly utterly devious
Making the most of everything

1970s

@Quizhelper

I have to block that vile man's voice out and 'listen' to the original. 😉

And when I listened to your heart I hear the whole world turning
I see the shooting stars, falling through your trembling hands

Sorry, last one 1970s.

@CoffeeBeansGalore

And when I listened to your heart I hear the whole world turning I see the shooting stars, falling through your trembling hands

I need to go to bed, but this is meatloaf, took the words right out of my mouth.

Until this very second ithought the lyric was tender nails, not trembling hands

Coffee - the first one is the Wombles - The Wombling Song

Second one Meatloaf - you took the words right out of my mouth

Well done folks. All mine guessed. I'm off to bed. Goodnight 😴

No-ones got this. Shall I redo it?

Oh I forgot to put the song..
He sure has acquired this kinda cool
And inspired sorta jazz when he walks
Where's his jacket and his old blue jeans?
Well, this ain't healthy, it is some kinda clean

Oh bugger missed the other ML one😤

And if he's happy,
He must be happy
He must be happy in his work

From 1979
