[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.

And he handed her a piece of paper he'd been writin' on
And after wipin' her hands on her apron she read it, and this is what it said

70s

Sugar! I know that one, iggi. I am soooo rubbish tonight

@Willow2017 and @VictoriousSockPuppet
Joint correct it was Junior Giscombe.

@Iggi999

I read you books and talked for hours

Late 80s

What have I done to deserve this - Pet Shop Boys

@Willow2017 - but another of one of my many non-guessed ones is a Stevie Wonder song 🙌🏼

Well done xsquared

@Willow2017

*And he walked away, but his smile never dimmed It said, I'm gonna be like him, yeah You know I'm gonna be like him*

That's 'Cats in the cradle'
Harry something?

@Willow2017, yes on the title, and it was Harry Chapin.

Just one more to get, on the theme of fathers:
I thank you for the music and your stories of the road
I thank you for the freedom when it came my time to go
80s

Has anyone go this one yet @NeedToKnow101?

90s
We're all alone in a villa on the Rivera
That's in France on the south side in case you care

If not, it's Prince Sexy MF

I've got one:

Was a time when I wasn't sure but you set my mind at ease.
There is no doubt you're in my heart now.

80s.

Victorious is yours no charge?

Patience, xsquared. I put some (different) lyrics from that song on the last thread and no one got them.

I love that song.

Guns n Roses.

(I think the lyrics I put up were from towards the end - "I've been walking the streets at night" section)

Yes, ellie. Well done.
A truly terrible song!

For anyone, but especially xsquared. I find this song similar, and love it just as much:

I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes
So that I knew that you were there for me
Time after time you were there for me

80s

If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the ocean
Just like the films
1980s

What would you say if I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you

1990

Maybe there's nothing more to say
And in a funny way I'm calm
Because the power is not mine
I'm just going to let it fly
1990s

@CoffeeBeansGalore

If our love song Could fly over mountains Could laugh at the ocean Just like the films 1980s

absolute beginners, David Bowie. I need to go to bed!

@VictoriousSockPuppet 😊👍

Racing 'cross the desert
At a hundred miles an hour
To the orange side
Through the clouds and thunder
1990s

@TwigTheWonderKid

Don't think anyone got this on e of mine from this morning so I'll add a bit more:

Plug into her electric cool
Where things bend and break
And shake to the rule
Talking fast couldn't tell me something
I would shed my skin for you
Talking fast on the edge of nothing
I would break my back for you
Don't know why, don't know why
Things vaporize and rise to the sky

80s

The Jesus and Mary Chain

@VictoriousSockPuppet

What would you say if I took those words away? Then you couldn't make things new Just by saying I love you

1990

Extreme - More than words

@VictoriousSockPuppet

What would you say if I took those words away? Then you couldn't make things new Just by saying I love you

1990

More than words Extreme

Blow up the tv
Blow up the car
Without these things
You don't know where you are
1980s

@TwigTheWonderKid -

it's Prince Sexy MF... correct.. and no they hadn't! 🙌🏼

Coffee is yours erasure blue savanna song
