Mr Soft
Won’t you tell me why the world
You’re living in seems so strange?

@FlouncerInDenial

It took me by surprise I must say
I heard it through the grape vine, Marvin Gaye. If it was an advert I don't know it.

A line from an 80s advert that became a song:

"Were you truly wafted here from paradise?"

FlouncerInDenial · 18/09/2020 21:12

Ooo. Library.

Iggi999 · 18/09/2020 21:13

Not an advert! Was singing this earlier... (80s)

I could be most anything
There is so much to see
I'd live a different story
If you were next to me

Fleamaker123 · 18/09/2020 21:18

She flies like a bird in the sky...

FlouncerInDenial · 18/09/2020 21:20

I can't bring myself to google, but the lyrics go something like

First time
First love
Oh what feeling is this
Electricity flows
Like the very first kiss

FlouncerInDenial · 18/09/2020 21:21

Is that an advert flea?

FlouncerInDenial · 18/09/2020 21:22

I feel like....

@Fleamaker123

They're tasty tasty, very very tasty
Is that McCains oven chips?
Fleamaker123 · 18/09/2020 21:23

Yes from the 70's but a hit too

Fleamaker123 · 18/09/2020 21:24

No NeedToKnow101, it was Bran Flakes!
