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

'So far, you're closest to knocking needtoknow off her top spot.....'

Can't wait!

There was Billie Jean and Beat it from Micheal Jackson’s Thriller album.

There is Sunday Bloody Sunday from the War album

It's different class the pulp album

Well elfy lobbed them somewhere.

Layering up!

There was Common people and Disco 2000 from Pulp’s Different class

The missing pulp track is sorted for e and whizz

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf

I'm worse at what I do best And for this gift I feel blessed

Take a rest as a friend

Rather be dead than cool
(I don't know why)
Every line ends in rhyme
(I don't know why)
Less is more, love is blind
(I don't know why)

90s

Smells like teen spirit

Come as you are

Nirvana Never Mind

Don't know third track

Argh.. so there u2 somewhere in this thread...

If flea is correct with Tears for Fears then my guess at Duran Duran is wrong, so that one is up for grabs again 🤔

Ah! The third Nirvana is Stay away.

Midge the U2 is page 31.

There is Cloudbusting and Running up that Hill from Hounds of Love by Kate Bush. (where are you @FlouncingBabooshka?)

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf

She's got one in the oven But it's nothing to do with me

You made no preparation
For my reputation once again

Don't ever be denied

90s

First lyric is She's electric

Oasis what's the story morning glory

Don't recognise the other lyrics

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf

It's only right that you should Play the way you feel it But listen carefully, to the sound Of your loneliness

I know you don't believe that it's true
I never meant any harm to you

Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you want to do

70s

Middle one is don't stop thinking about tomorrow

Which is fleetwood mac

Is it Rumours?

You're all doing really well. Work together!

1st. Dreams Fleetwood Mac
2nd. Dont stop
3rd. Go your own way

Rumours.
Bet someone else has it by time i post.

Oh! the third Oasis lyric is Roll with it.

Is the Madonna album True Blue?

@Honeyroar

This whole list of 17,000 lyrics all unnecessarily posted en masse, can be summed up for me in one song...

Every night you’re out there darlin
You’re always out there runnin
And I can see that lost look in your eyes
(80s)

ELO - confusion @Honeyroar

Sorry, half asleep 💤 it’s the best I could do.
I’ll try and catch up with more tomorrow.

Yes it was True Blue @CoffeeBeansGalore

Correct with confusion @CarnageAtTheGardenCentre (have you finished the elf Xmas party?

As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale

Help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure

My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean in air
And dreaming I'm a doctor
It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand

Tears for Fears

First one is Shout
Everybody wants to rule the world

Not sure on the third?
Is the album Songs from the big chair??

And do I get any points for this attempt 🤣

Yes, flea. Points and steps on the coolness ladder aplenty!

Are you all bored now? I hope you liked it.

It's going to be REALLY hard to score, curses Honey but I'll have a go because I'm busy tomorrow.
But please forgive any inaccuracies, because I'm am quite drunk!
