Wasteland!

Got there (eventually!)

Yay! Correct!

Mortified I didn't get it quicker

I think it’s hard to get from those lines because they’re not part of the song, just spoken at the start. I’d not have got it. I was playing a playlist that reminds me of my late friend tonight en route to Tesco, and all the songs I posted came up!

And now 18 months hard labour
Seems..
fair enough.
(80s)

Hey hey hey ye hey now no now now
(80s gothic)

Smiths. I started something I couldn't finish and SoM the corrosion these are all well in my comfort zone!

I think it was easier. I read them, and thought "I know those words". But nada. But I KNEW they were spoken at the start of the song (and album, I think).

So, I just let it settle, and then I heard wayne Hussey in my head, and then it was easy. I just had to sing my way to the chorus ylto get which song.
But the way I get most lyrics on here is what I hear in my head. Like, I'll hear "group" or "woman, but she's got a deep voice" or whatever. And then it comes to me.

Poor DH... the amount of times I've had to say "pause the telly, I'm singing in my head" is ridiculous!

Look for something left in this world

80s

So soon you'll take me

And the heir

Open the sky and let her come down

Opps. All 80s. All quite goth-y

Three with a theme:

1. He made you so sweet it's just not true

2. I think abouta mama, she used to say

3. It's easy to deceive
   It's easy to tease
   But hard to get release

@Iggi999 2. Shaddupp your face, Joe Dolce (?)

Evening everyone

So soon you’ll take me - Killing Moon, Echo and the Bunnymen?

And the heir, the Smiths, How soon is Now.

Ooh @FlouncerInDenial I know that left in this world one - it’s driving me mad!

Btw, did not intend the question mark after Bunnymen. There’d be a right kerfuffle if you said no

@Honeyroar

Words as weapons Sharper than knives Makes you wonder how the other half die (80s)

Is this still up for grabs? it’s Devil Inside.

And Honey and I will take a moment to drool (again)

@TwigTheWonderKid

Now she's stupid in the street And she can't socialize Well, I love the little girl And I'll love her till the day she dies 80s

And this one's David Bowie, Scary Monsters

@Honeyroar. I'll just leave this for you...

Coffeebeans, yes you have got the most embarrassing one right!

Yes @FlouncingBabooshkaut was definitely a bit of Micheal for us to drool over.

The Open the Sky one is The Cult’s Rain.

croaks
Morning all. Honey and FlouncingB - all 3 correct

@FlouncingBabooshka

Ooh *@FlouncerInDenial* I know that left in this world one - it’s driving me mad!
