Morning all I can't keep up at the moment. Miss the ones I know for sure, and anything else I guess is wrong.. so in that spirit..

  1. A spirit stronger than war was at work that night
December 1914 cold, clear and bright Countries' borders were right out of sight When they joined together and decided not to fight Coffee is that Pipes of Peace by Paul McCartney or Wings ?

CoffeeBeansGalore · 16/03/2021 10:57

Morning all

Correct to INXS & Wet Wet Wet & The Farm. Well done 👍😊.

No to Paul McCartney, sorry (it was The Farm as guessed by Honey).

I got a man who tries to run me
That's the way to make me run away
He don't know, he's just a-pushing me
To a man who make me happy

90's

From my outstanding ones with more lyrics where needed:

Don't wrap me up in cotton wool
You cannot treat me like a fool
Anyway if I was, you gotta let me be one
Okay give me your advice
It's not my fault if I can't be wise
Show me a person who hasn't been done

Look
But you gotta let me live my life
80s

I'm glad I opened your eyes
The have-nots would have tried to freeze you in ice

    • This line is the title of the song * *
    • As is this one * * Well, I was just passing the time I'm all alone, won't you give all your sympathy to mine? Tell me a story about how you adore me 60s This one is easier with fewer words, I think.

He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth bite to eat and he's rolling
Never changes a thing
The week ends the week begins
She thinks, we look at each other
Wondering what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
These crimes between us grow deeper

Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quiter time
Lights down, you up and die

Goes to visit his mommy
She feeds him well his concerns
He forgets them
And remembers being small
Playing under the table and dreaming

Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Driving in on this highway
All these cars and upon the sidewalk
People in every direction
No words exchanged
No time to exchange

50s, so slightly outside our usual window. You’re not going to get this one, I don’t think. My dad would’ve done.

Open up your window, let some air into this room
I think I'm almost chokin' from the smell of stale perfume
Originally 70s. Personally I know the 90s version
Mamma told me not to come, Three Dog Night/Tom Jones got by Critter

She thinks that I was with my friends yesterday
But she won't mind me lying
80s
FlouncingB named the artist and album, but not the song, so the points are still up for grabs, KB

My features form with a change in the weather
We can, we can work it out
80s
Mother’s Talk, TFF, got by Carnage

And then on the musical instruments theme:

Here we are in a fabulous place
What are you gonna dream here?
We are standing in this fabulous place
What are you gonna play here?
I know you love the high life, you love to leap around
You love to beat your chest and make your sound
But not here man - this is sacred ground
With a Power flowing through
And if I know you…
80s. I thought Honey would get this one.

  1. Here I am
And within the reach of my hands She's sound asleep And she's sweeter now than the wildest dream Could've seen her And I watch her slipping away 80s
  1. We're dancing in the shade of the summer sun
The drums are playing The change to come was yesterday In the heat beside myself I need to keep 90s
  1. I only smile in the dark
My only comfort is the night gone black I didn't accidentally tell you that 90s

I’m still laughing at Midge waxing her elbows. I also think the goo fighters would be quite good!
