[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.

I'd rather live in his world than live without him in mine

I'm getting trains and Atlanta Georgia ( this thread is fascinating me just because of how my head responds to these )

Going back to find a simpler place and time

Fleamaker123

(Ooh I'm jealous Honeyroar, I think he's still looking good for his age 🤔

I'd rather live in his world
Than live without him in mine

I can see the singer but can't ruddy think of it

Fleamaker Midnight train to Georgia - Gladys Knight & The Pips

Nearly there Midgebabe!

Yes Crepuscular 👍

@midgebabe Thank you! Midnight Train to Georgia. Female vocalist

All your compliments and your cutting remarks
Are captured here in my quotation marks.

Pipped!

Yeah!

Honey, we all want to know ALL about john Taylor, who you might or might not have shagged in the toilets!!!!!
What did he drink?
Did he go aisle or window?
Did he need any help fastening his seatbelt?
Did he concentrate during the safety talk/video?
WHO WAS HE TRAVELLING WITH? And was she attractive.
Did he unfasten his belt before the sign had flashed off?

Tell us everything

P.s a long, long, long time ago, I became a member of the mile high club

Can we have a decade, please?

Twig Elvis Costello Everyday I write the Book Fab choice!

Well done @CrepuscularCritter

And I think your number 3 is Rip It UP by Orange Juice?

Grabs popcorn & waits with @VictoriousSockPuppet for @Honeyroar to answer . . .

Indeed it is, Twig. Two to go.

And if we're showing off about celebrities that we have met then I've met the singer of this one:

Sleep baby sleep
Now that the night is over
90s

It's no surprise
To discover the tricks you've been brewing
When you turn and run away
Take a look at how you've give up your fantasy

(80s, and yes I have no shame)

Drag me out from a puddle of drool Twig.

INXS New Sensation

@CrepuscularCritter

Three linked by an obvious connection:

1. Faces of Strummer that fell from the wall But nothing is left where they hung

1. You're so cold, so cold The romance goes when the promises break My mistake was to love you a little too much.

1. And when I next saw you my heart reached out for you But my arms stuck like glue to my sides

And a bonus number 4 from of my favourite albums ever. I'm not expecting anyone to get this, but I'd love it if you do.

1. I know they say love is blind But if your heart was touching mine. I'll give you something that you can't ignore. I'll give you something you've been searching for.

Sorry, critter, I was momentarily distracted by john taylor.

1. Aztec camera but can't think of song name
2. Not sure
3. Orange juice, rip it up

And I feel like I know 4, but can't reach it. I'll keep trying to sing in my head!

Elvis costello! Of course. Bloody hell. I luffs him.

Iggi - bucks fizz? I hate that I know this, but if you can't stand the heat

Not Jason Donovan @VictoriousSockPuppet.

Well done Critter, though I have to say he had really terrible skin!

Iggi - bucks fizz? I hate that I know this, but if you can't stand the heat

I saw them in concert when I was (a lot) younger !

Yes Victorious

No 2 in that list is Hue and Cry, Labour of Love

That is much, much worse Coffee
