My outstanding:

Darkness on the edge
Shadows where I stand
I search for the time
On a watch with no hands

80s - one of my favourite bands

Well done Dexter!

Is that Dreams by Heart?

Thanks for the new thread Coffee..
Correct Honey to mine and to being tonight thread-ender! ✅✅😘
The original is Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. I love the Japan version.

@Honeyroar

Is that Dreams by Heart?

Yes!

I love the Japan one too. Now you’ve mentioned the original I remember it. Not half as much character to it imo.

Thanks for the new thread Coffee

Think I'm going down to the well tonight
And I'm going to drink till I get my fill
And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it
But I probably will
80s

Thanks for the new thread Coffee

In fact Japan are probably another 80s band that I quite liked during the 80s but didn’t appreciate just how good they were.

Glory days by Bruce Springsteen

Right, this pile of shite has been stuck in my head for three days, but Glory Days got rid of it. See if you know it...

Said I’d met somebody new
So fine
(80s)

Now here you are begging to me
To give our love another try
Girl I love you, I always will
But darlin right now
I’ve gotta say goodbye
(80s)

Luther Vandross - I Really Didn't Mean It....

My father loved a bit of Luther. Please don't cast aspersions into my musical taste because I know this song...

Good grief you've been hard at it here! I checked in at the old place to find cobwebs

Seems I missed the ones I knew

Eclectic is good

Thanks Coffee 👍

Hello everyone - hope you’re all well and happy.

Thanks for the new thread Coffee. I’ve slightly lost the run of things lately (too much time spent trying to sort house stuff out).

I loved Japan, Honey. I saw them live at the Hammersmith Odeon - I I think it was 1981. They were amazing, especially Mick Kahn, the lovely bass player. I wore an ankle length dress (black, naturally) and peacock feathers in my hair. Those were the days.
