Morning!

@idlevice you are correct! 🙌🏼

KatherineJaneway · 24/07/2020 07:41

From that day on, I made a vow
I'll be there when you want me
Someway, somehow

NeedToKnow101 · 24/07/2020 08:22

Is that Michael Jackson; I'll be there?

Anticipating for that soft voice
To talk to me at night

Fall down and spread their wings like doves
And we'll walk hand in hand

It's Ain’t no mountain high enough. Lots of people have sung it but I was thinking of the Marvin Gaye version.

NeedToKnow101 · 24/07/2020 11:42

Willow and Xsquared - correct!

No one got mine. It was Life is a highway & used in Disney's Cars. Originally sung by Tom Cochrane in 1991. The Cars version was done by Rascal Flatts in 2000.

I'd rather be jumping ship, I find myself jumping straight in
Stop doing what you keep doing it too
Forever be dozy and dim, I wake myself thinking of him
Stop doing what you keep doing it too

I know needtoknow's too, but can't reach it

VictoriousSockPuppet · 24/07/2020 12:04

Ok, I think this one is hard, so double points on offer for anyone who can get

And it's hard to say
Just how some things never change
And it's hard to find
Any strength to draw the line

80s.

I have clues available if required
(Although you lot ate awesome)

Why you try to put up a front for me
I'm a spy but on your side you see

NeedToKnow101 · 24/07/2020 13:39

@VictoriousSockPuppet - is that 'just the way it is?' by I don't know who....
