In starlit nights, I saw you
So cruelly, you kissed me
80s

So what do you want of me
Got no words of sympathy
And if I go around with you
You know that I get messed up, too
With you
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
80s
I don’t think many of you will get this. Except it was on the awards night playlist. But the person who nominated it doesn’t come and play here any more. But most of you have played the awards night playlist, so that might help???

And it's hard
For me to say
And it's hard
For me to stay
I'm going down
To be by myself
I'm going back
For the good of my health
80s

You don't have to take this crap
You don't have to sit back and relax
You can actually try changing it
80s

Life's an illusion, love is a dream
But I don't know what it is
70s

I was tempted to give more lyrics for this, but I know one of you really likes another song by this band, so I’ll keep it tight for now and expand if necessary!

Is there anybody out there trying to get through?
My eyes are so cloudy I can't see you
80s

Well he said he'd show you his bed
And the delights of the chemical smile
So in your broken home he broke all your bones
Now you're taking it time after time
90s

She said I'm so obsessed that I'm becoming a bore, oh no

Ah, you think you're so pretty
90s

I'm Big Bank, I am the Chief
I got a lot of raps but I'll be real
I never need a horse I like to chill
So I drive up in my new Seville
My tribe went down in the hall of fame
'Cause I'm the one who shot Jesse James
Pound for pound, I will never break down
Big Bank, no sir I don't mess around
80s
Lots of lyrics, cos I don’t think you’ll find this one easy.

We're gonna have a hundred and twenty babies
A hundred and five, ten, fifteen, twenty babies
Uh huh, that's what I said a hundred and twenty babies
80s

Now I don't want you back for the weekend
Not back for a day, no, no, no
80s

A one two three four
John the Baptist knows the score
80s

This one might be tough. Our Honey-pie often recognizes the lyrics, but has said she doesn't particularly like the group

Think I'm going up again
Hear the angels fall
Think I'm going up again
Catch me when I fall
80s

And not the other color so police think
They have the authority to kill a minority
Fuck that shit, 'cause I ain't the one
For a punk motherfucker with a badge and a gun
To be beatin' on, and thrown in jail
We can go toe-to-toe in the middle of a cell
80s

On top of the world
Looking over the edge
80s

See I rob banks, I pull pranks,
Sometimes I eat franks and knishes
Best wishes, I'm vicious but here
I am again like CNN, delivery my friend
90s
(I was pregnant when we saw this gig. It was the day before I could take the test, but I knew I might be, and I was. Whoop whoop)

This is a slight cheat, but I’m taking it:

Jesus, it must be great to be straight.
90s

And was due to see, but got covid-cancelled:

Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby
80s

Just one from my first theme un-got.
I've moved it to the top and added more lyrics, but if you want me to just tell you, I will:

You and me we were the pretenders
We let it all slip away
In the end what you don't surrender
Well, the world just strips away

Girl, ain't no kindness in the face of strangers
Ain't gonna find no miracles here
Well, you can wait on your blessin's, my darlin'
I got a deal for you right here

I ain't lookin' for praise or pity
I ain't comin' 'round searchin' for a crutch
I just want someone to talk to
And a little of that...
90s

If this town is just an apple
Then let me take a bite
80s

Human Nature, Michael Jackson got by Needtoknow

You know I’ll change
If change is what you desire
80s

Human League, Mirror Man got by Dexter

Maybe I'm foolish
Maybe I'm blind
Thinking I can see through this
And see what's behind
Got no way to prove it
So maybe I'm blind
2016, so a wee bit outside our 80s or thereabouts limit

Rag ‘n’ Bone Man got by Dexter. Coffee also knew it. The title of the song is actually just Human

My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
2008

The Killers, got by Dexter, Human got by Coffee

Noone around right now?

Ah well, there's plenty of lyrics awaiting for when someone checks in....

Human touch Springsteen

Hi I'm here almost ... in two weeks time I will share joy or misery with you all but feeling superstitious . And maybes some lyrics too

@MNerGoneRogueAgain

Now I don't want you back for the weekend Not back for a day, no, no, no 80s

Walking on sunshine

Martha and muffins ?

It might be sunny but it's super cold here, been burning the old personal paper stuff in the bbq and I am frozen

@MNerGoneRogueAgain

In starlit nights, I saw you So cruelly, you kissed me 80s

Echo and the bunny men killing moon?

Blimy you have been busy !

@MNerGoneRogueAgain

Could you be, could you be squeaky clean And smash any hope of democracy? As the headline says you're free to choose There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes 80s

Tears for fears - Seeds of love
