80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 27 🌟

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Sorry Folks, didn't realise how close we were to the end!

Come on over 😊

Sounds like you’ve had a rough time of it Steve. Glad you’re home now - hope you feel a lot better.

Yes, Shiny, it’s Oh Lori ⭐️ - anyone know the band?

@Honeyroar

That makes sense Shiny, I was thinking that my mother, who has everything else wrong with her, sailed through her jabs without affect.

Righto, some lyrics. It’s the singer’s birthday.

1. I hear her voice and start to run into the trees

1. Night after night she lay alone in bed

1. Getting bigger and sleeker and wider and brighter

1. You’ll have to adapt or you’ll be out of style

They are songs by The Cure.

Yes but you’re going to have to expand on that Steve! I said it was the same singer and Coffee already guessed no 3.🤣

I think it was the Alessi brothers - (where the hell did I dig that up from !!!)

Good evening all 👋 xx

@WhipperSnapperSteve

Yup, namechange fail! They flooded me with antibiotics and morphine for diverticulitis and pancreatitis. Nice to be back home.

Glad to hear you’re back home @Whipper

@WhipperSnapperSteve you don't do things by half! Glad you are hime & feeling better.

Hello Carnage 🖐

Rats - *home 🙄

Yes, correct Carnage ⭐️ - it was Alessi Brothers.

Google tells me they are 67 now!

Was The Cure answer Robert Smith?

Got

Jumping someone else's train.

Happy birthday, Robert

Honey:

1. But it's just the same a stupid game.

1. Vanilla smile and a gorgeous strawberry kiss.

1. I wish I could stay asleep today.

Steve, I'm so sorry to hear this. I know a couple of people who've had pancreatatis, so my heart goes out to you. I hooe they're managing you well now. All the best n hugs

1. I wish I could stay asleep today.

That's Close to me, the Cure of course!!

Get well soon @WhipperSnapperSteve ❤️

Well done Rogue👏

Yours are -

1. Let’s go to bed.
2. Hmm don’t know
3. Close to me (and how I feel!)

An easy theme... not the Cure

Some people might say my life is in a rut
But I'm quite happy with what I got
People might say that I should strive for more
But I'm so happy I can't see the point
70s

Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
00s

The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growing thin
70s

Too many shadows, whispering voices
Faces on posters, too many choices
80s

More to come.. but bumped into a colleague..

The ice age is coming us from the clash London's calling

Ah, rogue got Charlotte sometimes

Small piece of lyrics history....that song came up quite early on and despite the cure being incredibly popular no one could get it , it may have made it into the quiz for that reason

Needtoknow, no 2 I’m getting a lily Allen vibe.

No 4 is west end girls the pet shop boys

Mint car, honey. Gorgeous, happy song!

Are you preparing a quiz, midge?

Morning everyone!
Hope you're all ok, sorry to hear you've not been well WhipperSnapperSteve, that sounds tough xx

Some people might say my life is in a rut
But I'm quite happy with what I got
People might say that I should strive for more
But I'm so happy I can't see the point

The Jam, Going Underground

Is the theme London?

No quiz at the moment .. overloaded again ( and trying to fit in a holiday in the van )

Grief so many people been poorly, take care all. Whipper , that sounds horrid

I heard this yesterday, fits with Needtoknow's theme

Photographs of fancy tricks to get your kicks at sixty six
He thinks of all the lips that he licks
And all the girls that he's going to fix

70s

Oh I love that one!
Elvis Costello - I don't want to go to Chelsea

@Bluesheep8
