Point addition currently suspended until after awards night.

Any guesses at the moment are just for fun

MNerGoneRogue · 29/01/2021 17:17

Is the second one marc almond?

@NeedToKnow101

Continuing the very easy theme...

I close my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
Everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
But you brighten up for me all of my days
Original is 60s

You thought I was a donut
You tried to glaze me

80s hip hop (clue because no-one guesses it last time..)

Is the first one my boy lollipop?

Not sure, but right era and fits the theme

I actually can't remember what it is! 😂😂 been a long week. I don't think it is... I'll google it..

NeedToKnow101 · 29/01/2021 18:32

Ah I remembered. No. Rogue.

NeedToKnow101 · 29/01/2021 18:45

And the theme isn't sweets either 😂😂 strictly speaking.

But we don't care.....
70s (for you Rogue)

Honeyroar · 29/01/2021 18:56

Well I’ve already banked the points for saying sweets now!

NeedToKnow101 · 29/01/2021 19:05

You're joking 😒
MNerGoneRogue · 29/01/2021 19:57

Sorry, flea. It is what it is.

Still, imagine the joy, the expectation, the anticipation, the thrill, the excitement when tomorrow night's ceremony will reveal..... the highest point scorer

I, for one, can hardly wait.

I wonder who it will be??????

Honeyroar · 29/01/2021 19:58

Just smile and nod Flea. She’s not the boss of points..

midgedude · 29/01/2021 20:03

Well for those less interested in points, the quiz is ready and waiting ....

Honeyroar · 29/01/2021 20:12

@midgedude when did you stop being a babe and become a dude?

midgedude · 29/01/2021 20:18

I fancied a change

Either menopause is making me spotty

Freddy got spots from ripping off stars from his face
70s I think

Or I got sucked into a feminist bun fight

A hustle here a hustle there
New York cities the place
70s

Count your thoughts on one two three four five fingers
Nothing is wasted
90s

CoffeeBeansGalore · 29/01/2021 21:09

Evening all

Well I must have total brain fade. None of the outstanding ones are ringing any bells Confused

CoffeeBeansGalore · 29/01/2021 21:48

All I can think of is Dude looks like a lady by Aerosmith but that's 80s & the lyrics don't fit 🤔
