[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Here we go you lovely lot, Thread 11.

Post some lyrics of a song 70s, 80s, 90s (boundaries may be slightly pushed either way). State the decade & we will try to guess Artist(s) and song.

I am on a roll !!!

This is the first verse of the last one I posted

So what are you doing back?
Well, I sat back and thought about the things we used to do
It really meant a lot to me, you mean a lot to me
I really mean that much to you?

@zaphodbeeble

This ole house - Shakin Stevens

That's right. Sorry but poor Babooshka made me think of it

This one was Shakin Stevens, Cry just a little bit

I need to be the one that's by your side
You're the beat in my heart
My love for you is something I can't hide
And I cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit)
Cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit)

Every night before I'm falling asleep
Well I pray just a little bit (pray just a little bit)
I pray nobody wants your loving to keep
And you'll stray just a little bit (stray just a little bit)

Well look at that, I have a day out and you all appear and post bloody hundreds of lyrics!! Yesterday where were you all?! Just me and Fivestar!

@CoffeeBeansGalore

Is it Cry just a little bit - Shakin Stevens?

Oh flip flop, you said it on top of the lyrics d’oh....

It was a hot afternoon, on the last day of June, and the sun was a demon...

Fight the power was correct.

Just these two outstanding.

Very, very big hits, both of them.

Oh baby, give me one more chance
(To show you that I love you)

Baby, I'm hot just like an oven
I need some lovin'

@CarnageAtTheGardenCentre

It was a hot afternoon, on the last day of June, and the sun was a demon...

That's Summer the First time . Not sure who sung it though . A bit late for my brain !

Oh baby, give me one more chance
(To show you that I love you)

@FlouncerInDenial- Was that The Jackson Five - I want you back?

Yes @shinynewapple2020, it was 🙂.
Can anyone guess the singer?

Yes Carnage

I'm stunned no one's got this one. More lyrics.

Baby, I'm hot just like an oven
I need some lovin'
And baby, I can't hold it much longer
It's getting stronger and stronger

And when I get that feeling
I want....

Hot just like an oven is Sexual Healing, isn't it?

@SingingBabooshkaBadly

An 80s one for *@FlouncerInDenial* (but anyone else feel free to answer) Let me get the story straight You never gave me a break It's a case of give and take

These are all late 70s or very early 80s:

And when I call you I get stock replies
You work them out before you dry your eyes
I'm not a fruit machine, a 1960's dream
I dreamed about you last night, but you didn't see, girl

Prophesised, brainwashed
Tomorrow's demise
All systems failing
The placards unroll

Does it matter what is shown
Just as long as everyone knows
What's in fashion what is seen
On the front of a television screen

There's no doubt - not when I'm with you
When I'm without - I stay in my room
Where do you go - I get no answer
You're always out - it gets on my nerves

@SingingBabooshkaBadly The last one is Split Enz - I got you.

Sorry if someone else got it before me as it was many pages ago.

Hey, hey, hey
Everyone is talking about me
It makes me feel so sad
Hey, hey, hey
Everyone is laughing at me
It makes me feel so bad

(60s). Number 1 when I was born

Yes, iggi. Can't believe I had to post it 3 times, but well done

1980

Didn't know you
Would be jammin' until the break of dawn
I bet nobody ever told you that you

That's musical youth pass the duchy 

Correct @shinynewapple2020

1970s huge hit, still massive..

La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la, la la, la la la
Do do do, do do, ah

(Sorry! 😂🤪)

80s

We slip and slide as we fall in love

The last one is I just can't get enough. Depeche mode????

The la las - lovin' you?

NeedTo Know Skipping the las for now I have Master Blaster from Stevie Wonder and Just Can't Get Enough from Depeche Mode.
