Correct ✅. Don’t go changing (your name!)

Oh alright I won't then! 😘Correct to Level 42, Something about you.

Btw, after saying how much you loved a certain band yesterday.. you didn't guess the song.. so I've added a bit..

.... ......
Rode fiery horses through the snow
Snow covered hills snow covered miles
Miles and miles of traveling to go
And they were wild and free
Happy as could be in America
They were wild and free
Everything to see in America, in America

A bit of an obscure theme here - in that the song titles don’t reference the theme in all cases but there’s something within the lyrics (not the ones posted though!) that does.

Hope that makes sense! x

90s
We stare at the beautiful women
She's perfect for you
Man, there's got to be somebody for me

80s
Elegance in eloquence
For sale or rent or hire
Should I say yes and match his best?
Then I would be a liar

70s
Now Jimmy looking sweet though he dresses like a queen
He can kick like a mule

2011
Take me by the tongue
And I'll know you
Kiss me 'til you're drunk
And I'll show you

2005
Could you see the aisles of women?
Could you see them screaming and weeping?

It was a kind of so so love
And I’m gonna make sure it never
Happens again
(80s)

I was listening to this while mucking out. So many 80s songs have horrible lyrics!

Thanks flouncing ...I was drawing a blank and knew I knew it

Here's a couple more for me

I've travelled the land with a guitar in my hand
And an eye ever open for some fun

And

Ins tour of one night stands
My suitcase and guitar in hand

The second was my parents song and the song my dad was cremated to .
70s

Isn't that Back to my roots ?

The eloquence one is When Smokey sings. ABC.

I still don’t recall yours Needtoknow!🤪

Oh I love this ! Soft cell say hello abs wave goodbye

Midge
A tour of one night stands
Homeward bound Simon and Garfunkel

I've travelled the land with a guitar in my hand
And an eye ever open for some fun

How did everyone choose their names? We know about Honey's. But everyone else?

I make sure I always have plenty of coffee beans as I cannot do without my coffee.
People say there is no such thing as magic. I drink a wonderful potion made from beans which enables my tolerance of other humans (especially those at work who test my normally high patience threshold 😁 ).

Correct Shiny for Back to my roots and Say hello wave goodbye✅✅

Jimmy looking sweet etc

Is that all the young dudes ?

Mott the hoople / Bowie

Take me by the tongue
And I'll know you
Kiss me 'til you're drunk
And I'll show you

Oh of course! That one was bugging me!

I think she’s pretty
And I think that you have done quite well
(80s)

Shiny and flea both correct 👏

@MNerGoneRogueAgain

It's a term of endearment for my children 😂 I blame my dad, he always made up silly names for us when we were kids!

I got my names at a low point ( after leaving the ex ) when the only thing that loved me were the damn midges.

Love that Flea!
Aww Midge 😘. Are you single now? I can’t remember.

@Honeyroar

I think she’s pretty And I think that you have done quite well (80s)

Don't call me baby

I love your reasons for your names midge and flea.

Coffee, I wondered how come you could always be so nice. Now we know!

Good grief no! Have a lovely dh ( who some one here suggested needed me to LTB )

I just keep quiet about him as I don't want him kidnapped

Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember, we almost had it all

81

Flea that sounds like Abba?

Correct to the track name Rogue. Can you remember who sang it?
