Are you cheating on us on a different lyrics thread Steve?

You feel alright when you hear that music play.
You step inside, but you don't see too many faces.
Comin' in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down.
Competition in other places...
1970s

And you might know how to play with fire
But did you know of the murder committed
In the name of love
You thought what a pity

Are you cheating on us on a different lyrics thread Steve?

I am doing no such thing. Music lyrics are simply the way I tend to communicate with people.

*We started dancing and love put us into a groove As soon as we started to move The music played while our bodies displayed through the dance Then love picked us out for romance*

Yes Fleamaker, it's by Shannon.

Gosh this has all exploded.. Grin

Nessa talks for her a lot. “We’re just so pleased that we really like each other and get on so well..”. He does look like the guy from Greece too!
