Hi All

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

Hello everyone.

I’ve missed pages and pages ... 🙁

This one’s Rock the Boat by The Hughes Corporation.

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

I've changed my life completely I've seen the lightening leave me My baby just cant take her eyes off me

70s

The Jacksons - blame it on the boogie

Doh! Hues Corporation not Hughes,

Hmm...took too long posting again...

Yesterday, when it seemed so cool
When I walked you home, kissed goodnight
I said, "It's love", you said, "Alright"
1970s

80s, Scottish, not a massive chart hit so giving you a whole verse!

I wondered if she ever thought of
All the places she's never been
I guess she took a look outside
And didn't like what she had seen
She's says nothing, rather than -
be in a world that she can't believe in

Roxy Music, Coffee, is it Dance Away?

@Iggi999 yes, correct 😊👍

New to this thread, but here's my offering, it's from the 80s...

Once I was young
Once I was smart
Now I'm living on the edge of my nerves
The things we said weren't quite so tough
When we were young

To my surprise, one hundred stories high
People getting loose y'all, getting down on the roof
1970s

@Destinysdaughter Hello, welcome to the thread 👋. Not a clue on yours but I'm sure someone will get it 😁

Disco Inferno?

@Destinysdaughter yes, correct 😊👍

Your life's a passing star
The price you paid was dear
You make the most of my life
Yet movements dance with fear
1980s

Oh darn, so annoyed I didn’t stay on the thread and missed Dance Away!

Hello Destiny and welcome. 😊

This is Japan, The Art of Parties from the wonderful Tin Drum album.

Now the party's over
I'm so tired
Then I see you coming
Out of nowhere
Much communication in a motion
Without conversation or a notion
1980s

Avalon by Roxy Music @CoffeeBeansGalore 😊

It was once upon a place sometimes I listen to myself
Gonna come in first place
People on their way to work and baby what did you except

1980s

What's with these homies, dissing my girl?
Why do they gotta front?
What did we ever do to these guys
That made them so violent?

1990s

She's got electric boots a mohair suit
You know I read it in a magazine

1970s

@SingingBabooshkaBadly correct 👍😊.
1970s, Bennie & the jets, Elton John?

Did anyone get this one of mine?

Just bees and things and flowers

@NeedToKnow101 I don't think anyone got it. Would you care to add a few more lyrics?

Morning all 😊

When tomorrow comes and we both regret
The things we said today
