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.

How odd, I was just about to choose a song, but chose a different one by the same artist (cuz I thought you lot wouldn't get it Grin)... literally a minute later someone chose it on a radio show request i'm listening to! Nuts! It's Craig Charles on 6 Music incidently, which btw is a brilliant show.

Ok. As I had soooo much fun the last time I posted easy peasy lyrics, here's some more for whoever's around right now.

Zero points, they're all too easy, but I enjoyed the scramble....

In starlit nights I saw you
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels

FlouncerInDenial · 26/09/2020 18:58

You better run, you better do what you can
Don't want to see no blood, don't be a macho man
You want to be tough, better do what you can

FlouncerInDenial · 26/09/2020 18:58

I'm gonna crown the first girl that I meet
I'm gonna talk so sexy
She'll want me from my head to my feet
Yeah, yeah, yeah

FlouncerInDenial · 26/09/2020 18:58

You always taught me right from wrong
I need your help, daddy please be strong

FlouncerInDenial · 26/09/2020 18:59

Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails, she makes me wait

Money is the key to end all your woes
Your ups and your downs, your highs and your lows
Won't you tell me last time that love bought you clothes?

FlouncerInDenial · 26/09/2020 18:59

I bet she's never had a backstreet guy
I bet her mama never told her why

Fun and sunshine, there's enough for everyone
All that's missing is the sea

FlouncerInDenial · 26/09/2020 19:00

An angel's smile is what you sell
You promise me heaven, then put me through hell
Chains of love got a hold on me
When passion's a prison, you can't break free

Oh, you're a loaded gun, yeah
Oh, there's nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done

FlouncerInDenial · 26/09/2020 19:00

Woman, you want me, give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind

FlouncerInDenial · 26/09/2020 19:01

Flea, I'd already got that.
