The last one is captain sensible and happy talk.

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 03/05/2021 12:34

Is 5 bjork?
Oh so quiet?

I'm not sure that fits with your theme though????

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 03/05/2021 12:37

I know it ISN'T, but for no 3, all I can hear is losing my religion. And I know it isn't, but it's the that's me (in the corner) bit. I can't hear anything else!

Dedicated to the ones in education. Check out Fascinating Aida on YouTube. Excuse the language but very funny (especially the dogging one 😁).

Correct to this and Happy Talk. ✅✅😘 Bjork just relevant as it has laughing in the lyric.

Thanks Dexter 😘

Fleamaker123 · 04/05/2021 18:33

The freedom that you wanted bad
Is yours for good, I hope you're glad
80's

Trying to make some sense of it all
But I see it makes no sense at all.
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor?
I don't think that I can take anymore.
70's

He's got this dream about buying some land
He's gonna give up the booze and the one-night stands
70's

I pretend I can always leave
Free to go whenever I please
But then the sound of my desperate calls
Echo off these dungeon walls
90's

Evening everyone 🙂

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 04/05/2021 18:55
  1. The beautiful south, a little time.
  2. Stuck in the middle with you. Steelers wheel????
  3. Baker Street gerrymandering Roffey, who's also on the track above.

Not sure of no 4.

Evening all.

And thank you, flea x

Yes Honeyroar, by Tina Arena 👍

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 04/05/2021 19:39

Dunno. I was rushing cos I was full of joy at recognising 3 and wanted to get in before anyone else got the chance. Couldn't believe it when I saw what I'd posted!

I even read it out to DH.

NeedToKnow101 · 04/05/2021 19:41

You've got to have a dream

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 04/05/2021 19:47

If its a 60s musical, is it funny girl?

I don't know the musical well enough to know if that's right, but it fits with your theme
