@Honeyroar

I had a google Needtoknow and it was Freeze, but the singer was a black lady, not the bloke that sang AEIOU.

Oh yeah that's right it was a female singer in Southern Freez. She had a really nice soft voice.

Afternoon all. Damn, I missed so many.

Lovely to see the bread lyric. My mum loved (loves?) that album

CoffeeBeansGalore · 28/03/2021 13:25

Afternoon all

Hello Steve, nice to see you 👋

At break of day when that man drove away, I was waiting
I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more
1960s

Well, it's not far down to paradise, at least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away and find tranquility
Oh, the canvas can do miracles, just you wait and see.
Believe me.
70s

That is Sailing - Christopher Cross. I love that song, also the one he did (I think was 80s) from the Dudley Moore film.

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 28/03/2021 17:35

Afternoon everyone.

Hope you are all having good weekends.

I'm revelling in not having that Sunday sinking feeling as work looms.

Honeyroar · 28/03/2021 17:50

Oh lovely are you off already? They’ve another week here.

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 28/03/2021 18:31

Finished on Friday which is very early - also odd as the majority of pupils had only been back a fortnight.

I'm not complaining though - I'm certainly ready for a break. Shame the weather today has been dire, wet and windy.

KatherineJaneway · 28/03/2021 18:36

Tonight's the night we've waited for
The time to sing and dance like never before.
The street's alive with such a carnival air
An all night dancing party everywhere.

Shakatak, down on the street Used to love that!

It was one of those nights
One of those nights when you feel the world stop turning
You were standing there
There was music in the air
70's

KatherineJaneway · 28/03/2021 18:49

@Fleamaker123

Correct Grin Really good tune

Hello Steve. How are things with you?

Fleamaker123 · 28/03/2021 21:01

Yes Honeyroar 👍

NeedToKnow101 · 30/03/2021 08:49

Morning everyone!!!!! Hey have we missed our 1st birthday? When was the first thread started? 🍾

Honeyroar · 30/03/2021 10:22

Morning!
I bet Midge will know!

shinynewapple21 · 30/03/2021 10:37

Morning Smile

I think it was in May sometime .

I've just tried to do a search but '80s song lyrics' as a search bought me up every thread with any of those 3 words in , eg '80s adverts'; 'songs that make you cry'.

Honeyroar · 30/03/2021 13:10

I think it might be May too.

midgedude · 30/03/2021 13:39

What is special about Thursday 28 may 2020?

Morning all
