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

If heaven falls I'm coming too
Just like you said
If you leave my life , I'm better off dead

90s

Oh that's good news Honey. Sounds like your DH and your dad are very useful (and I'm sure they're lovely as well ). 🙂

Yes, The Spinners. Well done 👍😊

Here's a song for you Honey (although a bit late now)

But if we all stand up in the name of love
And state the case of what we're dreaming of

90s

That's good Honey. It's nice when you have a handy DH 😊

@shinynewapple2021 is your “If heaven fails” one The Verve - drugs don’t work?

And the one for me must be Take That - Relight my boiler (special version!)

@shinynewapple2021

Bon Jovi I think you give live a bad name

No it's livin' on a prayer

Actually scrap that

Sorry. Got radio on

I went no it's not you give love a bad name , it's shot through the heart

DH , eh? It's the same song!

Glad you're warm and toasty again honey.

Honey on toast 🤭

Correct for both 🙂

A few lyrics from my random shuffle on the drive in to work today ... no theme other then they are on my iPhone

Get dressed up get a little risqué
80s

Well, I'm just outta school, like I'm real, real cool
80s

I play a dangerous game
I keep pretending she's late
So I sit, and I wait
60s (also in 80s with a different artist)

But now I look at the night
And it don't seem so lonely
60s

In Catholic school, as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
00s

And is the lonely night one sweet Caroline Neil diamond ?

Is the Just out of school one Iggy Pop Wild one?

@Honeyroar @midgebabe both correct

Evening. Is anyone around? Hope you’re all ok.

Here are a couple to keep you going...

Looking for you
You were looking for me
Always reaching for you
You were too blind see
(80s)

I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words
Or ancient melodies
(80s)

And his mind is a beacon
In the veil of the night
For a strange kind of fashion
There’s a wrong and a right
(80s)

Toto Africa?

Evening also , all fine here, generally crap day but nice wine bottle ready to be opened .

Hi all, and fine thank you @Honeyroar

Mind is a beacon is The Riddle - Nick Kershaw

@Honeyroar

Jackie Graham sang it too in the 80s.

Heating is back on! Husband is a mechanic and dad is an engineer so they sort out most things between them! Warm honey is happy honey!!

Good news about your boiler @Honeyroar 🔥

Checking in. Got my wine poured. Don't know the outstanding lyric Honey.. 😘

Now my boilers gone... Did your DH slip down to London and steal a knob @Honeyroar ?

Like your username Tosser!

Where has your boiler gone? Should I tie mine down? What knots are recommended!

Aw tosser is a bit harsh, she’s not that bad! 😆. Love the name, even if it is very long! Correct for Nik Kershaw.

Oh no Needtoknow! 🥶 🥶.
