Carnage I’m loving these name changes. It’s like carnage follows you around!

Perdita I couldn’t get your lyrics either.

@Honeyroar 😁

Thinking of something for February .....🤔

You won't settle down
You've got both feet off the ground

80

Flea, is that a song called something like January, February?
Barbara Dixon or someone similar

@CoffeeBeansGalore

I don't know why I did the things I did I don't know why I said the things I said Pride's like a knife it can cut deep inside Words are like weapons they wound sometimes 80s

The power of love? Huey Lewis and the news?

Correct!

I've missed so many 😢

Continuing my very irritating habit of singing lyrics to myself that match up with my daily activities, I had this on a loop at work today..

You seemed so far away
though you were standing near
70's

You seemed so far away

Well I think that's Abba - SOS - but what on earth were your daily activities that bought that to mind ?

Shiny, nothing went right! Just one of those crap days 🤣

I was picturing you steering a sinking ship . Literally 😆😆

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf Not Huey Lewis, sorry. I thought this was another easy one.

😂😂

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Through the dark night, far away
I am dying, forever crying
To be with you, who can say?

70's

@CarnageAtTheJanuarySales - February, something to do with Valentine's day? Carnage at the valentine disco, flower shop, card shop, carnage at the sorry I forgot it was valentines day make up dinner? Just a few 😄

Yes Coffee 👍

Yours is Cher, but I think it had been guessed

Yes, Flea, you are right. Sorry, new page & didn't realise Willow got it! Well done Willow, correct to Cher 👍😊

All 80s

When situations never change
Tomorrow looks unsure
Don't leave your destiny to chance
What are you waiting for

I love you in the songs, I write and sing
Love you because, you put me in my rightful place
And I love the PRS cheques, that you bring

People try to take my soul away
But I don't hear the rap that they all say
They try to tell us we don't belong
That's alright, we're millions strong
This is my music, it makes me proud
These are my people and this is my crowd

When situations never change
Tomorrow looks unsure
Don't leave your destiny to chance
What are you waiting for

Swing Out Sister - Breakout

@KatherineJaneway Correct to Swing out sister 👍😊

The middle one isn't loving you (minnie ripperton) is it?

I know the third one, but can't place it. Morning all
