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

@NeedToKnow101 I’ve always thought it was Chucky’s in love (and thought of that evil clown thing!🤣)

NeedToKnow101 · 26/06/2020 17:33

@Honeyroar - 😂😂 Public Enemy did a hiphop version called Chuck D's in love

(Not really)

When the samba takes you out of nowhere
And the backgrounds fading out of focus

He’ll leave you black and blue
He’ll rip you right in two
He’ll wake up in the morning and say who the hell are you!

Honeyroar · 26/06/2020 19:45

Love in the nineties
Is paranoid
On sunny beaches
Take your chances
Looking for

My friends wonder why I call you all of the time
What can I say
I don't feel the need to give such secrets away
You think maybe I need help, no, I know that I'm right
I'm just better off not listening to friends' advice

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 26/06/2020 19:51

Just checked back and I think a couple of mine are still lingering. I’ve added some more lines:

Sacral blues in various hues, she capered to draw me
Me and Yankie, all hanky panky, seldom she bored me
She’s so bold and me feeling old, just stroking her face
Super troubadour, he can show you more than her lace

and this one:

And he's down on the street, so I throw both his bags down the hall
And I'm phoning a cab 'cause my stomach feels small
There's a taste in my mouth and it's no taste at all

Both are from the 70s.

Sometimes I don't know what I will find,
I only know it's a matter of time

On disco lights your name will be seen
You can fulfill all your dreams
Party here, party there, everywhere
This is your night, baby, you've got to be there

NeedToKnow101 · 26/06/2020 20:09

Yes @Honeyroar - Girls and Boys (not bots) - Blur
