Oh dear

Now have ear worm..hope and I pray that maybe someday....you'll walk in the room with my heart.

Help someone, work that one out for me?

I know this one it's ABC All of my heart Love that

Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
And a government for hire and a combat site
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry
With the Furies breathing down your neck
1987

When the morning comes.. is Year of the cats - not sure who sang it.

Al Stewart for Year of the Cat, and there's also a great version by Psapp.

Wire in a fire is REM’s End of the world as we know it.

Yes, well done Honey 👍😊

This just popped into my head..

She plays hard to get, she smiles from time to time
70s

@Fleamaker123 @CrepuscularCritter @Honeyroar

Correct with Year of the Cat and The Lion Sleeps tonight

Theme ?

My friends wonder why I call you all the time
What can I say
I don't feel the need to give such secrets away

You think maybe I need help
Though I know I'm right, alright
I'm just better off now than listening to friend's advice

1980s

The plays hard to get one is Kraftwerk’s The Model, I think, but I thought it was 80s.

It’s such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
90s
(Only giving two lines as it’s easy)

Correct @Fleamaker123 👍😊

Not quite @Fleamaker123

I'll pop some more lyrics tomorrow if no one knows the other songs . Obviously harder than I thought they were .

Correct @Honeyroar - it was 1978.

It’s such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
90s

That's Friday I'm in love by The Cure

Gosh I thought I remembered Kraftwerk at secondary school, it’s older than I thought.

Yes @Bluesheep8 it was The Cure.

Hello @FlouncingBabooshka where ya been? 👋🏼❤️😘

Hey! Get back ere with your mulled wine Mrs Babooshka!

How are you and your husband doing? I’ve got to nip out but will hopefully be back later.x

Hello @NeedToKnow101and @Honeyroar.

Sorry, I’ve had rather a lot of the mulled wine (hic). I might be able to find another bottle...

In an effort to sound windswept and interesting I could try to make up something about where I’ve been NeedtoKnow, but the truth is I’ve just been here battling with loss adjusters and arsey contractors and we still don’t have a floor and the house in still in utter chaos and I’m jolly bloomin’ fed up to the back teeth with it all and it’s sort of made me a bit incapable of even having the brain space to do this.

But, but, but - I have decided to snap out of it and come back into the fold. No hope of catching up - though a brief skim of the thread tells me there’s been a (presumptive) name change and a highly entertaining power struggle.

I’m working on a little theme so will be back later to delight and entertain...

@FlouncingBabooshka oh dear oh dear.

Our neighbor once lost his floor due to car acid battery leak

@shinynewapple2020

Hey FlouncingB.

So sorry you're still living in chaos. That's awful. As if this year wasn't already shit enough!
