Welcome to the thread @BikeRunSki. Have fun!

Can't place yours at the moment but I'm sure someone will shortly.

X post! I was right 😄

I'm off to bed. Night all 😴

I watched 'Lion' tonight and am emotionally drained.
Good night everyone.

Hi all

to anyone wondering, the deleted post above mine is either a troll or a bot or a bot troll. The night watch has at least 3 current threads about them. They're spamming mn with porn, apparently.

Happy, happy, happy drunk tired me!
I've just been to my first bookgroup live and in person since February 2020. It was sooooooo lovely.

And (don't tell anyone) but one of our group is a friend of mine who has moved 4 hours away, and she was there and I haven't seen her in so long and (still promise you won't tell anyone) we hugged!!! Twice.
It was just... human and normal and lovely. And we majorly disagreed about the book, which always makes the conversation zing (everyone else was wrong, obvs!)

You guys have been busy! I'll go though it tomorrow and repost anything from mine that was outstanding and award (or, most likely) deduct points as appropriate.

What were (some of you?) watching that led to this bounty?

I need to go to bed now!

G'night

And love to you all. Not sending hugs, because I've been a bad and naughty rogue this evening and I'm probably infectious and unclean.

@RogueMNerKnowsNoShame

For honey and anyone else with their feet up...

I think these are still outstanding from the other day...

Good evening Mr & Mrs America and all ships at sea,
The candidate is taking the country by storm.
70s

The sick and the hungry are unable
Protect them and those who may live in fear
We as the young wish to say in this song
God bless great America
60s, I think

Riot shields
Voodoo economics
It's life, it's life
It's just business
90s

they all loosely have an election/voting/protest theme

Morning all

You're not going to get these 3 I think? (apologies if anyone has, I'll pick that up in a moment). They are:

Elected, Alice Cooper
Power to the People, which I thought was John Lennon but google credit Curtis Mayfield
Electioneering, Radiohead

No way would I have got those Rogue. I doff my cap to you.

@Fleamaker123

The girl on the seesaw is laughing For love is the color This place imparts

85

Did anyone get this one? I think it's prince. Paisley park.

So, to recap, these are still outstanding from me yesterday.
More lyrics?
Was needtoknow not about yesterday? Some of these I thought she'd get.

4. What you want from me
   Tell me, maybe I could be there for you

5. Get the party goin' on the dance floor

6. You know it's one thing to say you love me
   But another to mean it from the heart
   And if you don't intend to see it through
   Why did we ever start?
   I wanna hear you tell me
   You don't want my love

Honey knew it was Kylie, but not the track.

10. I think about the implications when alone between the sheets
    When all the huggin' and kissin' is tearin' my heart apart
    All people standin' hand in hand, celebratin' all different colours

11. Now I tremble
    At your name.
    Nothing in the world will ever
    Be the same.

This is the truly atrocious one. No guesses? It resonates with 11a which got guessed (see next post)

12. You wrapped me 'round your little-bitty finger

13. Rags to riches or so they say
    Ya gotta keep pushin' for the fortune and fame

14. And I can’t help myself

Shiny, I hope you’re having a lovely weekend away. Just nice to look at some different walls, huh!

And the ones that got got:

1. Hot temptation!
   Black Box, Ride on Time got by honey

2. Do you feel my heart beating
   Do you understand
   Bangles, Eternal Flame got by honey

3. I'll give you ten good reasons to stay
   Jason Donovan, Too Many Broken Hearts got by shiny

4. Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife
   Turning me up and turning me down

Something’s Gotten Hold Of My Heart
So Honey gets ½ point for Gene Pitney, but it’s a duet. Shiny named Marc Almond for ½ point, but neither of you got the duet-ness for the full point. It was really dexter who correctly identified that it was a duet, but gets no points because both of them had already been named. Sorry dexter!

7. You know it's one thing to say you love me
   But another to mean it from the heart
   And if you don't intend to see it through
   Why did we ever start?
   I wanna hear you tell me
   You don't want my love
   Honey knew it was Kylie, but not the track.

8. I hear your voice
   It's like an angel sighing
   Madonna, Like a Prayer got by shiny

9. We had a quarrel and I let myself go
   I said so many things, things he didn't know
   Lisa Stansfield, All Around The World got by shiny

11a) And I wondered was I destined to spend my life alone
Oh girl you answered my question
This time it's working you've given me new hope

Climie Fisher, Love Changes Everything got by Flea. No one guessing the one above? There is a link to this song, hence the 11/11a. I was sure coffee would know it!

14. I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop

Alice Cooper, Poison got by dexter. Check out the username, dexter…. Rogue knows no shame!

16. Even when you're home You won't pick up your phone And take my call When I see you on the street You stare down at your feet You won't talk at all

Puke, Puke, Puke, Puke, Puke
Sonia, You’ll Never Stop Me Loving You got by Honey. I was amazed you got this... I’d NEVER have recognised it.

17. I know that I'm a prisoner To all my Father held so dear I know that I'm a hostage To all his hopes and fears

Mike and The Mechanics, The Living Years got by shiny

And finally, couldn’t resist…
Teach me to harvest, I want you to grow in my hand
Alison Moyet, Love Ressurrection
Correct, Flea, but for a bonus point, can you tell me why I couldn’t resist including this track in my list?

Does anyone else have anything outstanding from yesterday?

Yes Rogue 👍Prince, Paisley Park

Not sure about the Alison Moyet connection... Was it a love resurrection at your meet up yesterday? ☺️
I felt a pang of envy reading your post, I really want to see my old school friends, I think it's gonna be emotional!

Hello all

Hope you are having a nice Sunday.

Rogue, is there a theme to your list, or just a reason that you included Love Resurrection?

Flea/coffee, meeting my mate definitely wasn't a love resurrection. Although I do love her, it's just in a platonic way.

That song wasn't one I'd planned to add to my list, but something about the original post promoted me to do it. I thought it would be obvious to all of you. No?

Prompted not promoted.

Cheers brittney

Sorry Rogue, not sure the brain is working properly atm 😄

Afternoon

Glad you had a good time yesterday Rogue .

A guess here but is your number (11) Love changes everything by Michael Ball ? I think it's a song from a musical ?

😲😲😲😲

Shiny, you are duly awarded 10,000 points, and the loss of all street cred for ever.
Many congratulations

It's from aspects of love

Not sure I had any street cred in the first place

Well you did, because you're on here (obvs). But now.... 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Do you guys want more lyrics? Some of my ongoing ones are quite easy, you'll def know them

Add to them Rogue & give us a chance 😘

You lot have no hope, coffee, but ill give you more lyrics in a bit x

The Kylie one was probably Put your hand on your heart and tell me.

What numbers are left Rogue?
