... Hurry boy it's waiting there for you!

Honeyroar, Africa Toto

I had a sing to that in the car this afternoon!

Honeyroar · 15/09/2020 23:20

😃 Me too Flea! ✅

You’re my knight in shining armour
Chase the dragons and the demons away
(80s. Sorry)

Is that 5 star rain or shine

Honeyroar · 16/09/2020 13:11

It is Ellie, hence the apology!😃

ellie1967 · 16/09/2020 14:30

Sadly I recognised it straight away

Honeyroar · 16/09/2020 15:53

I bet everyone else will too. I have to admit I quite liked them in the day (but not their outfits!).

CoffeeBeansGalore · 16/09/2020 16:33

I liked Rain or Shine 😊. Bright, light & poppy

Every word of every song that he sang was for you

Not me honey. This is the song that came into my head

Like a knight in shining armour
From a long time ago

1980s

Fleamaker123 · 16/09/2020 16:38

Confession time... I liked Rain or Shine too!

A similar one...

Not for all the tea in China
Or the corn in Carolina
80's

Fleamaker123 · 16/09/2020 16:40

Shiny, that's Chicago?

Fleamaker123 · 16/09/2020 16:41

Glory of love?

CoffeeBeansGalore · 16/09/2020 16:47

@Fleamaker123 that's Bucks Fizz, trying to remember title . . . .

@Fleamaker123 @CoffeeBeansGalore

Land of Make Believe?

shinynewapple2020 · 16/09/2020 16:58

@Fleamaker123 yes to Glory of love, it was Peter Cetera who I think was the singer in Chicago

Fleamaker123 · 16/09/2020 17:06

Yes Shiny and Coffee ✅

shinynewapple2020 · 16/09/2020 17:09

And I think this one is Black Velvet Allanah Miles

shinynewapple2020 · 16/09/2020 17:16

For some reason the Allanah Miles song reminds me of this

Just as I walk through the door
I can feel your emotion
It's pulling me back

Also late 80s

LadyGAgain · 16/09/2020 17:18

Is that the piano in the dark song? I don't know what it's called!

Fleamaker123 · 16/09/2020 17:22

Yes Shiny for Black Velvet 👍

Fleamaker123 · 16/09/2020 17:53

All dressed in black
He won't be coming back

shinynewapple2020 · 16/09/2020 17:56

@Fleamaker123
I think that's Fool if you think it's over
Elkie Brooks did a version, also a male . Possibly Chris Rea

Fleamaker123 · 16/09/2020 18:01

Yes Shiny👏

The secrets of the summer I will keep
The sands of time will blow a mystery
