Well I feel lying and waiting is a poor man's deal

And I feel hopelessly weighed down by your eyes of steel

80s

VictoriousSockPuppet · 18/08/2020 22:49

Needtoknow, both wrong I'm afraid

Honeyroar · 18/08/2020 22:49

Get away one is Altered Images - I could be happy.

Hmm what else goes beep beep? Carwash, but that’s 70s too. Madness? Driving in my car? Rush hour - Jane Russell?

@VictoriousSockPuppet

Do you mean girls ON film?

No, sirry

Do you mean wrong? Grin

Anyway Girls on film would be:
beep beep beep
Beep beep beep

Extra beeps innit.

Honeyroar · 18/08/2020 22:52

Yes the french one is late 70s but it’s not the french punk

VictoriousSockPuppet · 18/08/2020 22:52

The beep-beeps are NOT car related.

Cackles maniacally.

I think I have achieved devilishly difficult.

I hope coffee has a category for that!

Honeyroar · 18/08/2020 22:53

THAT is bronski beat.
TwigTheWonderKid · 18/08/2020 22:54

Is this anyone's cup of tea?:

There's no scarlet in you, lay your veil down for me
As sure as God made wine, you can't wrap your arms
Around a memory

Honeyroar · 18/08/2020 22:54

I think that’s your next namechange magically appeared- devilishly difficult!

SimplySteveRedux · 18/08/2020 22:54

@Honeyroar

Yes the french one is late 70s but it’s not the french punk

I'll put it on ice. Currently enjoying annoying you all with this name too much to change it quite yet.

Well they're not technically beeps I suppose, but the basically the intro.
NeedToKnow101 · 18/08/2020 22:59
