Oh are they the same song? For god's sake... 😬

Honeyroar · 12/01/2021 21:16

The ski Sunday version was so much better!

@Honeyroar

Ok speedy things, here are some more...

I knew you when you had no one to talk to
Now you’re moving in high society
Don’t forget I know secrets about you
(80s)

Loving that stranger
Still Fearing that danger
Still crying in some Avenue
And soon the hate will be there too
(80s)

Oh you keep telling me
I’m your man
What do I have to do
(80s)

I’d have sworn that with time
Thoughts of you’d leave my head
I was wrong
(70s)

Evening all. I've missed so many 😫

The ungot 2nd one is kajagoogoo. Big apple

Oy shelf creature I was googling something that wasn’t a question so shut yer cake! I’m checking song lyrics so often before I post them that google makes me count traffic lights regularly to check I’m not a robot!🤣

And you’re correct with big 🍎✅

NeedToKnow101 · 12/01/2021 22:07

@Honeyroar

It wasn’t the Ski Sunday theme tune, they used to use the human league one for results.

Ok Flea you’re correct with Red red wine and Paul Young.

Joint effort from Flea and Needtoknow for Baby Jane.

Ahem Honey, I think you'll find Red Red Wine was moi...
Honeyroar · 12/01/2021 22:08

Yes. Very, very good, but also finding it very tense
Fleamaker123 · 12/01/2021 22:24

Someone at work has recommended.. Is it good?

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 12/01/2021 22:25

DD hoping to travel. Watching the serpent and REALLY hope it doesn't happen.

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 12/01/2021 22:25

Yes, flea. But grim

Honeyroar · 12/01/2021 22:27

I watched this week’s episode (3) and loved it. Now need to watch the first two.

I didn't want to let DS go to the corner shop after watching that, let alone go travelling for a year! Gave me nightmares, it's so tense.
