Yes coffee

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 12/12/2020 12:06

Just remembered one that I thought of originally but forgot to put up, so this also fits with the theme....

I love the work on it can do

Oh change of mind
Oh change of mind

Oh I missed all the ones I know. Bum.
Does this 70s classic fit your theme Shelf?

'Get up in the mornin', look in the mirror
I'm worn as her tooth brush hangin' in the stand, yeah'

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 12/12/2020 12:26

If that's hall and oats needtoknow, then no.

Coffee only got 2 from my list. And the theme is still to be got....

Fleamaker123 · 12/12/2020 12:53

You can tell your ma I moved to Arkansas
Or you can tell your dog to bite my leg
90s

ClearingSpace that's Billy J Cyrus, achy breaky heart

It is @ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf 🙌🏼😘 I don't know any others.. guess my theme from my last post...
ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 12/12/2020 13:05

Your last song is she's gone, needtoknow. So is your theme gone or going?

No one's got my theme yet and it's super-easy!

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 12/12/2020 13:06

P.s. correct, flea

No I meant the one before that at 10.40 Wink
NeedToKnow101 · 12/12/2020 13:11

Is your theme broken hearts?

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 12/12/2020 13:31

No but not a million miles away.

I don't know yours, sorry

CoffeeBeansGalore · 12/12/2020 14:42

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf Is your theme breaking things?

OP posts:
CoffeeBeansGalore · 12/12/2020 14:43

Or the word breaking/break

Fleamaker123 · 12/12/2020 16:04

The road behind was rocky
But now you're feeling cocky
You look at me and you see your past
Is that the reason why you're runnin' so fast?
80s

I was acting as if you were lucky to have me
Doin' you a favor, I hardly knew you were there
But then you were gone, and it all was wrong
Had no idea how much I cared
80s

ClearingSpace did anyone get these

First one Mathew Wilder breaka my stride
Second is Peter cetera hard habit to break

Did anyone get @NeedToKnow101 's theme from yesterday ?

@shinynewapple2020

Did anyone get *@NeedToKnow101* 's theme from yesterday ?

No @shinynewapple2020 but if you look at my 10.40 post today, you might guess the theme, even if you don't know the song... (I didn't know the song myself, just it fits the theme Grin)

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 12/12/2020 20:00

All correct. Although I think hard habit to break was Chicago.

And yes, theme is break/breaking or some derivative thereof. A point to coffee.
I thought we could play a kindof lyrics themed consequence game.
So Honey's was "stop" mine is "breaking". Next word????

Some still outstanding, including one of my favouritest songs ever.

Shall I repost the outstanding ones?

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 12/12/2020 20:00

Eastenders? Soap operas?

Fleamaker123 · 12/12/2020 20:20

ClearingSpace.. Yes please to reposting, I've lost track a bit!

There's another lyrics thread on here where I think it's like a consequence game...I couldn't make head nor tail of it though. Not as good as this one sniff

NeedToKnow101 · 12/12/2020 20:30

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf "So Honey's was "stop" mine is "breaking". Next word????"
Wind?
Bad?
Up?

NeedToKnow101 · 12/12/2020 20:34

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf

Eastenders? Soap operas?

Eastenders is a big part of my tribute theme... I think I'll stick to easy ones in the future.. Grin
