Sorry Shiny!

FlouncerInDenial · 07/11/2020 19:37

Yes to Portishead and Tears for Fears, Needtoknow. Can you name the tracks? Yes to Reward and YMCA and Prince and Dead or Alive and Bette Davis Eyes
Bonus point to Needtoknow for getting my lovely sex pistols.

Minus 100 points to Needtoknow for getting the wrong song!!!!!

Yes to Wham! shiny. Hope you enjoyed your curry Yes to Greased Lightening and Bohemian Rhapsody. Also correct with Save all your kisses, which WAS Brotherhood of Man and I will Survive and Oasis and Hey Jude and Night Fever and Girls Just Wanna Have Fun and Rolling Stones and Bonnie Tyler and Dancing Queen and Whitney Houston and David Soul (well done for that one, I thought that was one of the trickier ones) and also for Maggie May (my mum loves that song) and Culture Club and Gary Numan and Elton John and Tie a Yellow Ribbon

Yes with My Sweet Lord, Flea and also with Bjork and Guns N Roses

Yes with the Cure and the Spice Girls, Honey. You’re already pipped with Whitney. Correct with Duran Duran

Still quite a few outstanding, I think, for anyone who wasn’t around at the right moment….
