80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 6

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Hi All

Thread 6 here we go.

Post a few lines of a song from the 70s, 80s, 90s & we will try to guess the song & singer/band.

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies that’s Bros I owe you nothing (the 22” we microwaved, played frisbee with and drove over several times but it wouldn’t break and still played when I was at college!!🤣)

Fate up against your will
Through the thick and thin

1980s

Was sign of the times the Bellestars?

Yes!

@SingingBabooshkaBadly that’s The Killing Moon by Echo and the Bunnymen (love it!)

Echo and the bunnymen. The killing moon. Those lines are to easy!!!!

The dogs lay at your feet
While we caressed your cheek
Well stars wrapped in your hair
(90s just!)

X post with honey!

Needtoknow, I got the bloody title before honey did!!!!

Honey, you are correct with bros. Hang, I think you've dropped something...
Oh here it is, it's your street cred

Lol yes Prosecco you're the winner!

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

Oh my God we're back again Brothers and sisters everybody sing

Shit from the late 90s

Backstreet's Back - Backstreet Boys

It matters to me a LOT needtoknow, on a pointless thread with no prizes, but huge amounts of smiles!

Well done xsquared

A spirit stronger than war was at work that night
December 1914 cold, clear and bright
Countries' borders were right out of sight
When they joined together and decided not to fight
1990s

Right, before I call it a night-ish, I'll leave you this beauty....

And I don't wanna be your second choice
Don't wanna be just your friend
You keep telling me that you're not in love
You wanna throw it all away

80s 🤢

No I got my street cred back by reminding you we tried our upmost to destroy the Bros record (we spent half a day trying various hysterical things!). As a student household that had just discovered The Cure we trashed everything trendy in my friend’s record collection, but Bros just wouldn’t die!

Coffee, I know it isn't, but those lyrics remind me of that paul McCartney song where England and germany play football across the trenches at Christmas

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies it’s I can’t stay away from you by Gloria Estefan. I actually loved that one too!

And I don't wanna be your second choice
Don't wanna be just your friend
You keep telling me that you're not in love
You wanna throw it all away

Gloria Estafan, Can't stay away from you?

Pipes of peace!

Whoops, sorry @Honeyroar, cross post

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies, I know the one you mean.

The lines may have been too easy @ProseccoBubbleFantasies but @Honeyroar beat you to it! 😂😂😂

Honey and coffee, you both plumbed the depths of acceptability

And you're both right.

I sense we're going to need a lot of indie tomorrow to make up for all this pap!

But no, not Pipes of peace 😊

😝

Babooshka, if MN would supply the finger emoji, I'd flash it at you!
