[quote Honeyroar]@shinynewapple2020 yours is the wobbly headed David Grey’s This year’s love (sang it as I stepped out the door on my first date with my husband- and it did last!)[/quote]
Aw!

That's gorgeous honey.

There's nothing outstanding, is there?

Well spotted, coffee ⭐

But I'm going to ask for that post to be deleted cos I don't want my names to be so obviously linked. Is that ok?

No probs Trophy x

So ... are you a poster who is expecting a few trophies at awards night because of a spread sheet you are keeping ?

I'm expecting a gazillion trophies on awards night, shiny because I'm so brilliantly amazing on these threads.
But I'll award you a point and record it on a spreadsheet that I might be updating

It was a good name, needtoknow, I liked it. And it was inspired by an award I got at the last awards night. I would've liked to have kept it at least until the next one, but alas not.

Shiny, is it obsession?

I can't remember who sang it. Kindof thinking robert palmer, but there's a woman's voice in the song as well.

I'd forgotten about that song. Quite liked it. Can't remember who sang it though. Was it a one-hit wonder?

Something in the way you love me won't let me be
I don't want to be your prisoner, so baby, won't you set me free
Stop playing with my heart
Finish what you start
80s

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
80s

Well, we know where we're goin' But we don't know where we've been And we know what we're knowin' But we can't say what we've seen 80s

Road to nowhere, talking heads

Oh I've twigged you Trophy 👋🤣

🤫😉

I'll award you an unwanted point in exchange for your silence

Can I just say, I LOVE how you've all already nicknamed me 'trophy'.

No doubt bloody honey will rock up at some point and start calling me 'space'. She was the only one who absolutely refused to call me victorious (a galling annoyance, which is reflected in her points on the spreadsheet)

Correct to both Trophy 👍😊

Or 'Shelf.' vaguely Xmas-y too.

It's written in the moonlight
and painted on the stars
We can't change ours

70s

I've waited hours for this I've made myself so sick I wish I'd stayed asleep today I never thought that this day would end

Inside everyone hides one desire
Outside no one would know
Danger close to edge of the knife
Safer not to let go

It's no use, he sees her
He starts to shake and cough
Just like the old man in
That book by Nabokov

Thank you coffee , most kind!

one I know, I think 3 is don't stand so close to me by the police

I have known so few, this thread was getting hard to find

Not sure what your lyric is, needtoknow, but you can have a point if you never call me shelf again
