I'll take you down the only road I've been down

90s

shinynewapple2021 · 24/01/2021 19:50

Isn't that the title Rogue ?

(Waiting for dd to come out of work with the radio on)

You're such a natural, sing
That's what you are

80s

MNerGoneRogue · 24/01/2021 19:53

It is the verve, shiny, but not the title because I'm not an idiot!

midgebabe · 24/01/2021 19:54

Bitter sweet symphony

We cross posted - the title I thought was the previous song Til I found you

Still trying to work out which verve song it is

MNerGoneRogue · 24/01/2021 19:55

Lonely as I am together we cry

90s

MNerGoneRogue · 24/01/2021 19:56

Well done midge

MNerGoneRogue · 24/01/2021 19:57

Oh, the 80s one is NOT the verve.

midgebabe · 24/01/2021 19:58

@MNerGoneRogue

Didn't know how lost i was Til I found you

80s

Very easy one

Madonna

Like a virgin?

@MNerGoneRogue

Oh, the 80s one is NOT the verve.

No!! My posts referred to two different sets of lyrics !

MNerGoneRogue · 24/01/2021 20:00

Correct midge. Such a shame there's no points up for grabs atm.
Pop a rung up Wobbling Heights

pointedly ignores shiny

shinynewapple2021 · 24/01/2021 20:00

And I was obviously wrong as midge has got it as Madonna

I was thinking of the song that goes 'didn't know I was looking for love til I found you, til I found you ...'

MNerGoneRogue · 24/01/2021 20:01

😘

MNerGoneRogue · 24/01/2021 20:02

Oh, I know that song. But I don't think it was 80s

midgebabe · 24/01/2021 20:03

I was originally thinking white snake for the verve one.... confusing lyrics night

That one was Everything but the girl 😊
Fleamaker123 · 24/01/2021 20:41

Just one look I can see in your face,
You're my love satellite in orbit with you
Such a beautiful place

90's

Honeyroar · 24/01/2021 21:25

Evening! Have I walked into a scrap?

Lonely as I am one is Under the Bridge- Red hot chilli peppers

Honeyroar · 24/01/2021 21:27

And Flea’s is MPeople - one night in heaven

CarnageAtThePancakeRace · 24/01/2021 21:28

@MNerGoneRogue

You'll see when you get on the next thread carnage 😉

You can pop up a rung or two of Wobbling Heights if you like

That sounds interesting..

I think I’ll be wobbling a fair bit after what I’ve been scoffing lately @MNerGoneRogue 😀

Fleamaker123 · 24/01/2021 21:30

@Honeyroar

And Flea’s is MPeople - one night in heaven
Yes Honeyroar 👏
MNerGoneRogue · 24/01/2021 21:38

We're all wobbling at this point, Carnage.

Correct, honey

midgebabe · 24/01/2021 21:43

Wobbly ...
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money and I brought it back to molly

70s
