I’m home. After three shampoos, half a bottle of conditioner, plus a shower that looked like something out of psycho, I’m back to normal! Had a fun day at the café, even if the weather didn’t play ball.
Don’t know any outstanding ones.

Am working on the bottle of wine now Coffee.

FlouncingBabooshka · 31/10/2020 21:18

@shinynewapple2020 - yes! 👻 🏠 👻. Late 60s but I think it might have been released in the 70s. Covered by the Fall in the 80s, though I have no recollection of that.

CoffeeBeansGalore · 31/10/2020 21:20

@Fleamaker123 correct to superstition 👍😊

@CoffeeBeansGalore

Yes to Sweet Transvestite 😊👍

I think the line was spoken by the good witch but can't remember at what point (you saying 1940s gave away the film)

It's a lyric from a song, coffee.

Hmmm. a song from the wizard of oz that fits the Halloween theme? What could it be????

shinynewapple2020 · 31/10/2020 21:31

My lyrics were harder so not surprised they weren't guessed

FlouncerInDenial · 31/10/2020 21:34

Superstitious is one of my favouritest songs ever.

What is your natural hair colour, honey?

shinynewapple2020 · 31/10/2020 21:34

Happy Sunday All, hope you are having a nice chill out day.

Here's a few, all 80s

I heat up, I can't cool down
You got me spinning
'Round and 'round
'Round and 'round and 'round it goes
Where it stops nobody knows

You are the one for me
I am the man for you
You we're made for me
You're my ecstasy

Through the hourglass I saw you
In time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed I called you
And turned to hear you say

Your first one is Abra Cadabra
Steve Miller band I think
