The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company

In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow, by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain

NeedtoKnow Is that the Belle Stars and Sign of the Times?

It is! Well done. I always think it's Bananarama, but of course it's the Belle Stars Wink
I'm very impressed you're writing a novel. Would you like to share the genre?

CoffeeBeansGalore · 05/02/2021 11:37

Correct to Toto 😊

Currently have a power cut. Hopefully services will resume around 1.30pm. See you later

I bought this one on 45rpm. Remember the sleeve - there were quite a few of them weren't there?
Honeyroar · 05/02/2021 12:32

I always mix them up with Amazulu.

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 05/02/2021 13:01

Oh, now they're too good to be forgotten Grin

I'm young, I know But even so I know a thing or two I learned, from you

I really learned a lot
Really learned a lot
Love is like a flame
It burns you when it's hot
70s

Love Hurts
I think it was by Jim Capaldi

I think so Dexter.. but I always get them mixed up with Bananarama.. who there were three of, as you'll know Grin

You'd better live in love
In luxury and sunlight
And don't be dining out
On foolish dreams every night

Evening all, power's back! Snow brought some lines down.

Correct to Love Hurts, but it was Nazareth 😊

When you hear the music, you make a dip
Into someone else's pocket then make a slip
Steal a car and go to Las Vegas

Fleamaker123 · 05/02/2021 18:22

Coffee... Yay! Glad you're back on!

Love hurts was a bit for Nazareth in 1974 and Jim Capaldi in 1975. I wonder whether anyone bought both versions !

CoffeeBeansGalore · 05/02/2021 18:48

Thank you Shiny! I only know of the Nazareth one (Dh's playlist 😁)
