@prosecco
Yes, it's Paul Carrick

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 01/07/2020 21:44

So happy you got this one, Babooshka. I put it on just for you. Was fully expecting someone else to swoop in and get it first

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies it was like the Bat signal for me Grin

Haven’t been able to get on the thread much at all the last few days but looking back on it their are loads I just wouldn’t have been able to get. Starting to doubt myself...

Honeyroar · 01/07/2020 23:36

I don’t know why Babooshka, you’re really good at this.

She was proud about it
No doubt about it
She isn’t sure about what she’s done
No time to think about
What to tell him

The dream we all dream of
Boy versus girl in the World Series of love

Prince - U Got The Look

KatherineJaneway · 02/07/2020 00:04

No one got mine from earlier?

Do I want to go out with a lion's roar
Huh, yea, I want to go south and get me some more
Hey, they say that a stitch in time saves nine
They say I better stop or I'll go blind

You’re shattered by the final frame
Of the movie scene that generates your every aim

An easy one from early 1990s 😊

Cause I'm a model, you know what I mean
And I do my little turn on the catwalk

I hit the road out of nowhere
I had to jump in my car
And be a rider in a love game
Following the stars

You're like my yo-yo
That glowed in the dark
What made it special
Made it dangerous

CoffeeBeansGalore · 02/07/2020 13:17

You're the whisper of a summer breeze
You're the kiss that puts my soul at ease
What I'm saying is
I'm into you
