Walking down the street, kicking cans
Looking at the Billboard, oh so bland
Summing up the people, checking out the race
Doing what I'm doing, feeling out of place.
80s statuesque iconic diva

Is that Grace Jones?

It sure is Dexter.. ✅😘 which song?

Slave to the rhythm?
She was SCARY

To help rogue gain control , my outstanding one

The worst crime I ever did was playing rock snd roll
But the money s no good

Not Slave to the rhythm... fits Honey's fire-quenching theme.

I can’t think of a rainy Grace Jones song. Pull up to the bumper is the only other one I can get!

My miss/Mrs one is a good old disco type song. I found a compilation cd with it on in my car with it on.

Walking in the Rain!

Hey baby what’s your name?
Is it a Mrs or is it a miss? Eh?
If you’re by yourself I’d like to take you for a ride
We could check the scene and we could reggae down
(80s)

Kool & The Gang
Let's go dancing

That made my head hurt!

Walking in the Rain!

Just walking along
My clothes are soaked right through to the skin
I haven’t a doubt
This is what life’s all about
(80s crazy group with loose pants...)

is the second one Madness? The sun and the rain.

midge, I can hear the stranglers in my head, I think. But I can't get to the title.

I REALLY want to know what needtoknow's magic mushrooms one is.

Correct! ✅. Have another donut Dexter! 🍩 (not a mumsnet offensive donut, another crispy creme one.

Stands quietly in line and waits to be offered a donut

midge - get a grip of yourself?????

Yeah yeah !!

Jam, apple or custard?

"Have another donut Dexter!"

Errmmm..... I kinda accidentally ate another two today .....

@RogueMNerKnowsNoShame

midge - get a grip of yourself?????

I was wondering what Midge had done to offend you, then I realised it was the song title

Yes Rogue it is The Sun and the Rain. Did my clue give it away. (Chucks a donut like a fish at a seal).

I just presumed Rogue was bollocking Midge. I’m a bit worried about our Rogue. She’s been terribly (unusually) polite lately. I breathed a sigh of relief when she told Midge to get a grip, now I’m worried again.

She just wants the donuts I think

I used to love that song when I was eight! Another one I'd forgotten.

A cheese do-nut

My mushroom one is She brings the rain, by Can.
A musically advanced ex put it on a mixtape for me back in the day,
