So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
(80s?)

Yes it’s cutting crew. And correct with Erasure. Not quite right with Sisters of Mercy’s song.

You make me feel so Devine
Your soul and mine are entwined
Before you I was blind
(90s)

Feck. It's REALLY hard to sing in my head cos the TV's on

With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can’t say we’re satisfied
(70s, perhaps 60s!)

Remember we met and the room was crowded
And I can't forget the way that it started

80's

At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
(80s)

Oh Flea I actually know that! Pepsi and Shirley. Heartache!

Bruce Springsteen I'm on fire. Love that song.

They put a parking lot on a piece of land
When the supermarket used to stand
Before that they put up a bowling alley
On the site that used to be the local pally
80s

Now
The mist across the window hides the lines
But nothing hides the color of the lights that shine
80s

Correct Need to know. Yours is called Come Dancing. My head wants to say it’s the Kinks, but doesn’t seem right?

Is that come dancing? I can't remember who sang it

Is that the Rolling Stones Angie?

Grrrr

I’ve missed nine pages?? Nine?

Totally bamboozled by the sheer number of lyrics and no idea what’s been got and what hasn’t but I know I spotted Wuthering Heights - too hot, too greedy - amongst them.

Yes it’s Angie @shinynewapple2020

Oy Flouncer Id already half guessed that already! Shame we’re both stuck on the group!

(My grrr was to honey)
That bloody woman's been pipping me since thread 1

Hello. I don’t think that was guessed @FlouncingBabooshka.

I know I have, yet somehow I won the most pipped at the post award!!

Here’s a nice easy one that seems appropriate tonight, especially with what I’m seeing on the television right now.

60s, then covered in the 90:

Philadelphia, PA (xxxxxxxx)
Baltimore and D.C. now (xxxxxxxxx)
Can't forget the Motor City (xxxxxxxx)

I was so pleased no one else got it, FlouncingB. I was sure someone else would, but it was just there waiting for you x x

Anyway that wasn’t a pip, I was minutes ahead!🌟

We’re going to run out of pages soon!

Dancing in the street

I have to admit I had a sneaking suspicion but I know Kate Bush must be guessed but one of the flouncers!
