One man he resist
One man washed up on an empty beach

@VictoriousSockPuppet

I touch you once I touch you twice I won’t let go at any price

Isn't it Talking Loud and Clear?

About bloody time. You could've also had a point for special aka

Fleamaker123 · 30/08/2020 09:52

If there is fire stirring in your heart
And you're sure it's strong and right
Keep it burning through the cold and dark
It can warm a lonely night

Yes Victorious, originally Randy Crawford, then Shola Ama covered in 1997 👏🏆

VictoriousSockPuppet · 30/08/2020 09:54

Shiny, between you, me and pantry we've got 3 different song titles for the same lyric. 😆😆😆

I can't wait to see which of us is right. it had better be me

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 30/08/2020 10:02

I think shiny might be correct with the OMD song

@VictoriousSockPuppet it’s not Talking loud and clear, but along those lines (but better!)

NeedToKnow101 · 30/08/2020 11:34

1980s

You tell me that you love me every day
When we're alone I really feel in love
But when you're out with friends I see a change
You treat me bad, I feel like second best

@VictoriousSockPuppet

In my dreams I'm dying all the time
Then I wake it's kaleidoscopic mind
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to lie
So this is goodbye?
This is goodbye

VictoriousSockPuppet · 30/08/2020 11:56

Yes, katherine!
So can you get the one above it? Same album. I think a bigger hit.

@VictoriousSockPuppet - I don't mean to bang on about it, but I still think I deserve a point as the 'don't call me scarface' line in Gangsters is sampled from the Prince Buster song, Al Capone .. (I do have a life outside of this game honestly Grin).
VictoriousSockPuppet · 30/08/2020 17:43

Needtoknow, you may have half a point.

CoffeeBeansGalore · 30/08/2020 18:48

I guess i thought you'd be here forever
Another illusion i chose to create
You don't know what ya got until it's gone
And i found out just a little too late
1980s
