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

Which ones are outstanding? None I know I don't think.

why not think about times to come?
and not about the things you've done

although you're miles and miles away I see you every day^

Don't know what I want
But I know how to get it
I want to destroy the passerby

Too hot, too greedy

You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you say

Bitter words mean little to me
Autumn winds will blow right through me

All different songs.

Happy Friday, everyone

I think the last 2 are still outstanding

The Sweeney's doing ninety 'cause they've got the word to go
They get a gang of villains in a shed up at Heathrow
They're counting out the fivers when the handcuffs lock again

Have just switched over to BBC 4 and it's TOTP from 1089 playing Living in a Box - no one got my song from last thread so you should watch it! GrinGrin

(Okay 1989 Blush )

Step by step
Heart to heart
Left, right, left
We all fall down

The BBC Top of the Pops seems to be stuck on 1989 forever. I guess I've missed the boat with anything earlier than that. 1989 was rammed with Stock Aitken and Waterman rubbish.

Epic bold fail..sorry.

Here in my car, I can only receive.
I can listen to you, it keeps me stable for days.

xsquared · 19/06/2020 20:20

So much for your promises,
they died the day you let me go.

Iggi999 · 19/06/2020 20:20

Yes it was Smile

Iggi999 · 19/06/2020 20:21

Sorry, toy soldiers, martika

@ssd

Read while the letters still remain. Sip from the wine of youth again. Oaths made in silence still return.
