I lie it was 2001

[shinynewapple21]

Yay I did it!

[NeedToKnow101]

If you really love him
And there's nothing I can do
Don't try to spare my feelings
Just tell me that we're through
60s

This is for you Shiny!

[NeedToKnow101]

@shinynewapple21

Yes!!✅😘

If I'm doing a flurry on my phone, I find the lyrics, paste them into notes (remembering to number them of course), then copy and paste them all into the thread.

[shinynewapple21]

I wish today could be tomorrow
The night is long
It just brings sorrow let it wait

80s

So you never get that thing where you've typed out lyrics to 5 songs and then your MN app decides to shut down !

[NeedToKnow101]

No! Cuz I post them in notes first. (Smug face)

[NeedToKnow101]

Ive done a loose theme.. but it’s a bit confused between 2 themes..

1. Don't turn your back on me, baby
Don't turn your back on me, baby
Yes, don't turn your back on me, baby
Stop messing 'round with your tricks
70s

2 You know I can't stand it
You're running around
You know better daddy
I can't stand it 'cause you put me down
Oh, no
Lots of versions - best known is probably 60s

3 It's drivin' me out of my mind!
That's why it's hard for me to find
Can't get it out of my head!
Miss her, kiss her, love her
80s

4 The sweetest melody
Is an unheard refrain
So lower your sights, yeah
But raise your aim, raise your aim
80s

5 Difficult preaching is Posdnuos’ pleasure
Pleasure and preaching starts in the heart
Something that stimulates the music in my measure
80s

6 I've had nothing but bad luck
Since the day I saw the cat at my door
So I came into you sweet lady
Answering your mystical call
70s (disclaimer 😳)

[NeedToKnow101]

One more for my theme ..

Well, the night I was born
Lord I swear the moon turned a fire red
The night I was born
I swear the moon turned a fire red
Well my poor mother cried out
"Lord, the gypsy was right!"
60s

[NeedToKnow101]

Oh and this 80s acid house classic...

Hey-ya, ah, ha-hey-hey-hey-yah
Hey-yah, ah-ha ooh
Ooh-oo-hoo, ah-ha ha yeah (Hey-ya ah-ha)
Ooh-oo-hoo, ah-ha ha yeah (Hey-ya ah-ha)
He-hey-ya, hey-yah ah-ha ooh
Hey-yah ah-ha ooh
He-hey-ya, hey-yah ah-ha ooh

The only one I know from these is no 6.

It's cliff and devil woman.
For shame!

[NeedToKnow101]

Do you have one of these Rogue...?

[shinynewapple21]

Needtoknow your number 6 is Devil Woman Cliff Richard
(Waits for Rogue to ban me for recognising CR lyrics)

Correct Rogue although I was thinking of Kirsty Macoll's version.

[RogueMNerKnowsNoShame]

Is coffee around???? Thread is getting full.

Not for me, obvs, cos usual MN rules don't apply to me

[NeedToKnow101]

It's cliff and devil woman.
For shame!

✅ Rogue, but it's OK I put a disclaimer (crimes against music clause). We're all covered under it ❤️😘

Rogue would have to ban herself too! 😂😂

[RogueMNerKnowsNoShame]

Unfortunately I can't shiny, because I pipped you.

I'm sure I can find another reason to ban you though

[WhipperSnapperSteve]

@shinynewapple21

It started straight off, "coming here is Hell"
That's his first words, we asked what he meant
He said, "Where you from?" we told him a lot
We take a holiday, is this what you want?

90s

Have a Nice Day - Stereophonics (love their cover of Handbags & Gladrags, better than original, or is that blasphemy? 😳)

[WhipperSnapperSteve]

Rogue - your #4 is Poison Arrow by ABC?
