80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 8

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Ok folks here we go again!

Post a few lines of lyrics & let the rest of us have a go at guessing the song & artist.
Songs from 70s, 80s 90s.

Yes to both of those. 👍👍
I thought the last one was the easiest!

Morning all

No one got this:
Hey how long I've been waitin' for a love so tender
Hey hey hey how long can I stay without your touch I wonder
You you you you tell me you can ever know oh loneliness
Hey my love no no don't leave me on my own please
Call me by Ivana Spagna

Your whole world is tumbling down
Can't get your feet on solid ground
You're looking for someone
Someone you know, you can count on
1980s

Lying here in silence
Picture in my hand
Of a boy I still resemble
But I no longer understand
1980s

Some more of mine from a few pages back..

Just keep the devil in hell
Just keep the trains on the rail
Just keep the stars in the sky
And keep the money for sale
Just let the crippled ones walk
And let the silent ones talk
Just make the blind so they see
And the sad ones happy

Early 80's

The tumbling down one might be Rise to the occasion by Clime Fisher
The Lying here in silence one might be Turn back the clock by Johnny hates Jazz

Morning everyone. Don’t think I know any of the outstanding ones so will just leave these Instead:

1970s
She’s uncertain if she likes him
But she knows she really loves him

1980s
My emotions start up when I hear your name
Maybe your sweet sweet voice would ring in my ear
And stimulate my senses when you are near

1990s
I swore I would be true, and honey, so did you.
So why were you holding her hand?

Your 90s one is The Cranberries - Linger.

@Honeyroar, correct on both 🏆😊

I remember that parody of Angelo

It's goes along the lines of 'running away together , running away in leather Anne and Joe ....

Joe is a biker in the story...

No idea who did it though [/quote]
The Barron Knights.

They passed the bloody tower
one hundred miles an hour

something something

tower bridge was riased..
hand in hand, Anne and Joe

@SingingBabooshkaBadly, the 70s one is Drive In Saturday by David Bowie.

Looking back on when I was a little nappy headed boy
Then my only worry was for Christmas, what would be my toy?

'76

Song 1
Did you say it's all over? It was me not a whisper
The marriage is over, was it me or my heart
Justify all affection , beyond recollection
I was fine in Virginia , guess it's true what I said

Song 2
She talks like thunder
She really lets you know
She keeps changing the rules
And leaves you nowhere to go

Song 3
And I like it that way
Sometimes I can't make it all alone
Sometimes that's the way, that's the way
I'm not saying
I'm not saying I don't love you

All 1980s

There is a theme

Song 3 is Paul Young. Wherever I lay my hat.

That's right @Honeyroar

Nobody got this one..

Deep down I'm still confused about you
Oh, yes I am baby
I feel so in love, oh baby
(What can I do) what can I do?
1990

It was Londonbeat, thinking about you

Is no 1 (Country Roads) take me home? Olivia Newton John if so

Looking back on when I was a little nappy headed boy
Then my only worry was for Christmas, what would be my toy?

Stevie Wonder I Wish

Running after somebody, you gotta get him somehow
I think you've got to slow down before you start to blow it
I think you're headed for a breakdown. So, be careful not to show it
Originally 1960s, huge cover in the 80s

Yes KatherineJaneway👏

Is that Gloria?

Don't know 60s version, can't think of the name of the woman who sang it in the 80s

Was Gloria Laura brannigan

@VictoriousSockPuppet @ellie1967 Correct, Gloria. Laura Branigan in 80s, Van Morrison in 1964.

I don't think anyone's going to get this one...

Just keep the devil in hell
Just keep the trains on the rail
Just keep the stars in the sky
And keep the money for sale
Just let the crippled ones walk
And let the silent ones talk
Just make the blind so they see
And the sad ones happy

Early 80's

It was Jo Boxer, Boxer Beat

Take a look up the rail track
From Miami to Canada
