I'm not guessing - sorry. I have a new one:

'Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head'

I can add more

' See, the sea wants to to take me
The knife wants to slit me
Do you think you can help me?'

80s

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 22/02/2021 20:44

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 22/02/2021 20:46

Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Something's out there!"

Benny was a boy I met while walking home one day

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 22/02/2021 21:05

Yes @Honeyroar

NeedToKnow101 · 22/02/2021 21:06

No-one got my Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians song from about a week ago.

Anyway it was Carmelito.

Honeyroar · 22/02/2021 21:09

I can’t remember that one Needtoknow. I really liked them, but not sure if I ever had an album.

I just had that album. It's brilliant, Ghost of a dog it's called

@MNerGoneRogueAgain

Great, needtoknow, it's a date. Anyone else joining us? I may provide cheese. Ladders strictly optional

I found the vid on YouTube. Stan, the song is called.
I still think the video is brilliant even though I haven't seen it for about 20 yrs!

I couldn't get the link to copy via my phone. Will try from the computer

I'll be there, in the corner with a Diet Coke
