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

Can not change 70s

Before those 3 words

And this bird you

Yes xsquared. You got there

Yes @Willow2017 to December63

And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look in your eyes.

'77

An easy one...

On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold and starlight in your eyes of blue

ProseccoBubbleFantasies, Free Bird, Lynyrd Skynyrd.

@Fleamaker123

And I don't know if I'm being foolish Don't know if I'm being wise But it's something that I must believe in And it's there when I look in your eyes.

'77

Love is all around, can't remember who sang it before the wets.

Aargh ignore that, not the wet one.

Love is in the air, not all around.

Close to you, sung by Karen Carpenter. What a voice, what a sad end.

I think it’s Love is in the air, but as ever I don’t know the artist! You got the first two words @ThatLibraryMiss even if you were guessing another song!

Iggi999, yes, Gypsy.

No takers for the second one?
Past or future, here or there
Shelter comes in words from you, so talk to me
I hear your voice, it comforts me
In morning dreams I take your hand, you walk with me

Yes @ThatLibraryMiss to the Carpenters, she was so talented... Love those lyrics

Yes to Love is in the air, it was John Paul Young

Prosecco is that Rhythm is gonna get you by Miami sound machine? That's what I'm singing in my head anyway!

Like the merry go round
I'm going up
I'm going down

80's

And now I know what they mean, you're a love machine
Oh, you make me dizzy

1970s

I just can't believe the loveliness of loving you
(I just can't believe it's true)

Originally 1969, numerous recordings through 70s including Pinky & Perky 😁

Coffee, the first one is ABBA, honey honey

@Iggi999

No Iggi. Which lyrics?

Yes to freebird, Library

Fleamaker, I'm getting a living on the ceiling vibe. But I've just mentally sung the song, and those lines aren't in it!

I'm soooooo close to knowing it, but gah can't quite get there. Have to leave that one for someone else

Look out of my window, what do I see
A crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me
All the nightmares came today
And it looks as though they're here to stay

Early 70s

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies correct, Abba 👍😊

Prosecco, Oh you pretty things by David Bowie.

Prosecco, she goes something like oh ay oh ay oh ay oh oa in Rhythm etc, sounded a bit like your letters-only lyrics

Ah, Iggi. With you.

Ok. Not Miami sound machine.

The lyrics are from a song in a musical film. The film was a huge hit and at least 2 of the songs were no 1 for ages. THIS song definitely charted, can't remember if it made no 1 or not. It's the least good song from the film (imho). Fabulous soundtrack. So many good songs. I don't like this song, but thought that single lyric was distinctive.

To be clear, it's the word I
Sang as
I-I-I-I-oh-I
Roughly 1978
