Apologies if I have missed anyone. Let me know if you spot any omissions 😊

*Morissette's

I'm so disabling Grammarly, it's cost me more wasted time this week than it's ever saved. Junk.

"I'm taking my time
I'll fix it, don't worry now
I'm needing you there
Make sure that you're coming too"

90s

@SimplySteveRedux

In the 80's was covered by Bruce Willis.

What?! WHY?! I'm so happy I've never heard it! I definitely don't want a YT link for Christmas either....

He also covered Under the Boardwalk also as I mentioned a good few posts previously. Another one to miss @SimplySteveRedux 😃

Sorry, one too many alsos there ..

Though I've tried before to tell her
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart
Every time that I come near her
I just lose my nerve as I've done from the start.

Is that The Police - every little thing she does is magic @CoffeeBeansGalore

@CarnageAtTheGardenCentre It is the Police, well done but I'm afraid you were pipped a while back by @FlouncingBabooshka.

I quite liked his album

@CarnageAtTheGardenCentre i rather liked Brucie's version of Under the board walk 😁

He did a song called Comin' Right Up that I liked. Siedah Garrett sang background vocals.

Afternoon... Hopefully easy, with a theme too

I heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
I smelled the spring on the smoky wind
I heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
I smelled the spring on the smoky wind
80s

Girls grab the boys
We get wild, wild, wild
We get wild, wild, wild
70s

I got rhythm, I can't miss a beat
I got a new Skank, so reet
70s

But he's a liar and I'm not sure about you
80s
And everything you see
Is out of reach, not good enough
I don't know what the hell you want from me
80s

There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
70s

Come on feel the noize..oh hec status quo or slade...noddy holder....

Btw I just had lentil Dahl with a fried egg on top, and peanut chilli oil to add another level.

Fucking lovely, I really recommend it.
