MNerGoneRogue · 30/01/2021 21:02

MEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

I honestly never saw that coming

FlouncingBabooshka · 30/01/2021 21:02

Ooh - I didn’t think we were having that category this time.

Ah. It's just it was probably me who put them up.

midgedude · 30/01/2021 21:06

I think it probably was you Rogue

I can quite easily put up a lyric and then completely fail to recognise I have ever seen it before

NeedToKnow101 · 30/01/2021 21:06

Thread 3.

shinynewapple2021 · 30/01/2021 21:06

I can definitely remember by the end of July there were themes in the threads as I remember posting a couple while I was on holiday - about thread number 4?

midgedude · 30/01/2021 21:06

Rogue is on a roll!

yes to Strawberry Switchblade

MNerGoneRogue · 30/01/2021 21:06
