The first few times people posted out of decade others were not happy! Possibly thereabouts on thread 3

Morning all. I just put song thread in the search, ticked titles only & found all of them.

The (or thereabouts) came into use on thread 4, suggested at the end of 3 😊

Be warned you can lose weeks in the archive

By whom, coffee?

And when did you start being OP? It can't have been much earlier than thread 4 or 5, cos there's the original, then honey. I've done it at least once, if not twice.

When did you join in?

I trust you implicitly, midge. I reckon you MN in a white lab coat, possibly with some test tubes bubbling nearby

Rogue, never trust my memory ! It has a tendency to vague

I have been known to have to ask " did we do xxxx yesterday or was it just me dreaming"

And that was before any menopause symptoms

You can't be any worse than the rest of the drunken degenerate us

Rogue the suggestion was kind of joint between you and @NeedToKnow101. I started as Op on Thread 5.

Diss away! And similar vibes

When the lights go out
I cannot pretend
This bed's too big for me
80s

Love has truly been good to me
Not even one sad day
Or minute have I had
80s

I see that look in your eyes (look in your eyes)
And what it's telling me
Abs you know. Oh girl. That I'm not shy
80a

When I can't sleep at night
Without holding you right
Girl each time I try I just break down and cry
90s

Sorry couple of Britneys there

Last song is 'holding you tight'

And abs means and

I see that look in your eyes (look in your eyes)

When I can't sleep at night
Without holding you right
Girl each time I try I just break down and cry
90s

Boys II men? End of the road

Evening all.

Things will happen while they can
I will wait here for my man tonight

In my brain
I see your face again

Big In Japan. Alphaville.

Bloody love that song

Is it about rent boys, do you think?

Correct. I love it too. Never really thought about what it’s about. Could be.

Have we moved on from Alexander o’neill And his ilk?

Honey, can I hear the bee geez for your second lyric???

Just googled Dexter and found this.

(In my head, I mean!)

You can. It was covered in the 80s too and has been an advert recently. Gorgeous song...

Turning Japanese is about wanking
