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.

@Fleamaker123 - coffee got that already...

Not necessarily, needtoknow...

Sail away, sail away, sail away

80s.
Not been put up before (I don't think) #feelingrejuvenated

My DH got this. Can I post the answer? I will take no points

Hmm... I seem to remember you got a little snippy with me on one occasion when my DH got one...

Tell you what - I’ll post one more line and you let it sit there for five minutes. If nobody gets it you can post DH’s answer and get a half point (I haven’t had that authorised by the point allocator but I can’t see her objecting...)

Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions, golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
Xxxxx
Xxxxx
When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars
This is the dawning of the xxxxxxx

I'm sorry you got no points. That's tough. Them's the breaks. 🤷‍♀️

The age of aquarius. Dh gets 500 points (not me).

He very kindly donates them to....

Less than 2 pages left & I've got a busy day tomorrow so thought I'd set up ready. Just trying to be organised (and I have a points spreadsheet to update 🤣)

Sorry you're busy, coffe (unless it's doing nice things) But don't worry about the point scoring... I've got that covered! I have a spreadsheet

They don't know my name, they don't know my kind

If all you have to prove today is your innocence
Calm down, you're as guilty as can be
