Was it Doris Day who sang the Eggs in the morning one?

Is no 5 chas n dave, rabbit rabbit???

If so, isn't it 80s?????

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 04/04/2021 13:29

I deffo know no 6. Gah!

FlouncingBabooshka · 04/04/2021 13:41

Shiny, Flea and Rogue - all correct have some 🍫!

I think you’re right Rogue, 80s not 70s (I couldn’t be bothered to check Blush)

You probably do know 6. It’s an album track from a very successful 90s album. I’ve posted another track by the same group very recently.

FlouncingBabooshka · 04/04/2021 13:44

How Do You Like Your Eggs in the Morning wasn’t Doris Day Coffee (I would have guessed that too). It’s a duet - famous man but I’ve never heard of the woman.

CoffeeBeansGalore · 04/04/2021 15:43

@FlouncingBabooshka thank you for that. What I was hearing in my head was her voice so will be interesting to find out who it actually is! I'm sure it was in a musical . . . But then again my brain is mush at the moment 😄

I'm having a guess that the 1940s one is about an Easter Bonnet!

Honeyroar · 04/04/2021 16:00

Today surely it’s Egg-o and the Bunnymen.

shinynewapple21 · 04/04/2021 16:01

Good one Honeyroar 🤣🤣

shinynewapple21 · 04/04/2021 16:43

I have a feeling the song about Andrew Lloyd Webber is Crowded House , but I have no idea what the title is.

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 04/04/2021 17:55

Happy Easter everyone - hope you have all had a lovely day.

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 04/04/2021 19:27

Ah poop.
Always late to the party me!
Happy Easter everyone!

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 04/04/2021 19:30

@FlouncingBabooshka

Happy Easter everyone.

Here’s some around a theme. Mostly the titles but some of the acts may be the thing that fits the theme and one is a complete
cheat!

  1. 80s
Come on everybody Come on everybody
  1. 70s
Baby, if you just say you care I'll follow you most anywhere Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx And in the darkest night I'll keep you safe and all right
  1. 70s
But now I know that I'm the fool Who won your love to lose it all
  1. 80s
Conquering myself Until I see another hurdle approaching
  1. 70s
Now you was just the type of girl to break my heart in two I knew right off when I first clapped my eyes on you

6.90s
Not everyone in New York would pay to see Andrew Lloyd Webber
May his trousers fall down as he bows to the queen and the crown

  1. 50s
How do you like your xxxx in the morning I like mine with a kiss
  1. 90s
Turn, turn, I wish you'd learn There's a time and place for everything I've got to get it through
  1. 40s
On the avenue, fifth avenue, the photographers will snap us, And you'll find that you're in the rotogravure. Oh, I could write a sonnet about your xxxxxx
  1. 80s I want to love you, feel you Wrap myself around you I want to squeeze you, please you I just can't get enough And if you move real slow, I'll let it go
I've just realized no 8 is the Stone Roses. I Am The Resurrection.
RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 04/04/2021 19:32

Shiny, I hope you're wrong about the Andrew Lloyd Webber one being a crowded house track, because I absolutely can not think of one of their songs with a (possibly tenuous) Easter theme.

although I only had one of their albums, so def not a crowded house expert.

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 04/04/2021 19:33

have you been working today, dexter?

shinynewapple21 · 04/04/2021 19:43

I'm no expert either Rogue, DH has a couple of their albums which we listen to quite often but I never see the track titles .

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 04/04/2021 20:24

No Rogue, I'm off now until the 13th.
We've had our 6yo DGD , which has kept me occupied! I don't think she's stopped talking all day - we're all shattered!

Honeyroar · 04/04/2021 22:02

Evening all. I have barely guessed any of these, and you’d all guessed the ones I knew anyway. But I’m earnestly eating Easter egg while reading your posts. 😋

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 04/04/2021 22:04

Is that from Babooshka's list dexter? Have I missed another bloody beatles one? Ffs.

And you have a 6 Yr old grandchild? You must've been a young mum (assuming you're around our age)

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 04/04/2021 22:36

No Rogue, it's not and yes, it is the Beatles.
DGD is technically my step GD, as she's DHS's son's little girl. But DH and I are the same age - 52. She's a cracking wee thing, but constantly on the go. My heads still spinning from her incessant chatter and questions Smile

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 04/04/2021 22:38

DHS? Don't they make furniture or something?!
I meant "DH's"
