Yes thankyou Prosecco. An improvement on Agadoo from yesterday, but then that's not hard.

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies correct 😁. My apologies if it's been before. I've seen a couple of other Britney songs but not this one. Happy Friday 😊

No one got these

That old dog has chained you up, alright
Give you everything you need to live inside a twisted cage
Sleep beside an empty rage
I had a dream I was your hero
Sophie B Hawkins, I wish I was your lover.

All over the nation there's a brand new craze
You see it going on where the music plays
It's funky and it's punky and it's impolite
You can do it by day but it's better at night
The Stonk, Hale & Pace

Don't you feel it growing, day by day

Fleamaker123 · 10/07/2020 20:02

Another one from a few days ago...

I must have been through about a million girls
I'd love 'em then I'd leave 'em alone
I didn't care how much they cried, no sir
Their tears left me cold as a stone

Classic from' 75

I've been hearing your heartbeat inside of me
I keep your photo right beside my bed
Livin' in a world of fantasies
I can't get you out of my head

Don't put your head on my shoulder
Sink me in a river of tears

But you must overcome your fears

I know that one. Not in a ‘this is the name and the artist’ way though, just in a ‘gah! I know that! Why won’t my brain tell me?!’ way.

Like most of the others...🙁.

How about this from the 90s:

On the second day I brought her a flower
She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen

I might have posted it on the last thread but I don’t think anyone got it.
