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

You’ve clearly got the right song in your head @AJUmpedUpChristmasElf...

Sobs in a corner

I'm beaten @Honeyroar

@Honeyroar

😄yeah but which song is Kim singing?? No points yet...😁

Chequered love

It is Chequered love - joint effort from @Christmaself and @perdira.

Thank you @perditasugarplum I was almost ready to google it otherwise I wouldn't have been able to sleep tonight

Thank you *@perditasugarplum* I was almost ready to google it otherwise I wouldn't have been able to sleep tonight

Wipes all points, partly as a precautionary measures, partly as a lesson to others. Eyes Perdita pointedly in particular And other words beginning with p

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf

I only thought about it - but I managed to refrain. Surely I should retain my points and get extra for honesty

I'm wiping half your points as a lesson to others. I am being kind because it is Christmas. But I am VERY unhappy with the point awarding generally on this thread, sometimes in different languages and feel a stand needs to be taken.
They are questioning my authoritay and this will never do!

Bows and scrapes

Thank you - you are a kind and generous points manager who is always right.

aware I've not put many (or even any) lyrics up recently. Here's a few with a specific theme.

Done individually because bloody Honey was moaning about long posts with lots of songs the other day rolls eyes

Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme

Funny it's just like a scene out of Voltaire
Twisting out of sight
'Cause when all the curtains are pulled back
We'll turn and see the circles we've traced

Don't ask me why I'll keep my promise I'll melt the ice

I'll take my chance, 'cause luck is on my side or something
I know what you're thinking, I'll tell you something, I know what you're thinking

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf

Save a prayer

Rio Duran Duran

Grrr I don’t know the other one tho

ooops. Forgot to say - they're all 80s

Ah, you didn't need that clue. What's the theme, Elf?

melts oh, have all your points back

My lips are sealed

Good song!

Hmm, so much for leaving these there for the morning.

So, 1 more to get and the specific theme. Honey will get it (once she's woken from her drunken slumbers)

for the rest of you, here's another, much looser theme. Again, broken down by song because Bloody Honey prefers it that way, even though it's easier for me to do them in a oner, but I'm all give, give, give on these threads.
