I used to have some of the lyrics from how soon is now on my bedroom wall as a sad teenager. Gutted to miss them on here!
So did I!

Correct Carnage. Nice to “see” you.

Honeyroar · 19/05/2021 22:24

Ooh Ugly Kid Joe sang I hate everything about you, I think. They were great lyrics, but I could never decide whether I liked the song or not.

Interested in this thread?

CARNAGE!!!!! I've pm'd you. Go check!

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 19/05/2021 22:41

Pantry, were we human and did we need to be loved, just like everybody else did???

Fleamaker123 · 19/05/2021 22:42

Correct Rogue and Honeyroar 👍
I think the lyrics get a bit dodgy as the song goes on!

Hi Carnage!

Lay a whisper On my pillow Leave the winter On the ground (80s) It must have been love, Roxette
Originally called Christmas For The Broken-hearted until it was picked up for Pretty Woman and a couple of lyrics were changed.
Honeyroar · 19/05/2021 22:55

I hate it anyway Steve! An ex boyfriend played it for hours when I told him I wanted him to move out!🤣

CoffeeBeansGalore · 19/05/2021 23:24

That's a shame Honey. I sctually quite like it but I have no awkward memories linked to it.

WhipperSnapperSteve · 19/05/2021 23:31

Eek, sounds like a right prize of a bloke.

I love Roxette though - Stars was playing on the radio when DD was born Smile

Hi Roguey, I’ve replied to your PMs 🙂 xxx
CarnageRoundTheMaypole · 20/05/2021 07:09

Good morning all 👋
Sorry for not keeping up, I’m the worlds worst!

The good news is, things are getting back to (some sort of) normal at work (NHS). There is light at the end of the tunnel 🙂

(the waiting lists are understandably long, so it’ll get busy again soon, but trying not to think of that…..)

@Fleamaker123

And I don't like a thing about your mother And I, I hate your daddy's guts too

90's

I take it you heard this on the radio on Wednesday Flea ?
RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 20/05/2021 07:56

Morning all.
I didn't realize you were nhs, carnage.
Thank you 🙏🦸‍♀️💝

@RogueMNerKnowsNoShame

Morning all. I didn't realize you were nhs, carnage. Thank you 🙏🦸‍♀️💝
Ah no, what are you thanking me for, I should have said I’ve not been on here for a week or so as Ive been busy with work tbh 🤦‍♀️.

I mentioned the NHS in context of the bit about things getting better, though I get people will have sussed out what I meant 🙂

Morning Smile

Sick and tired, I don't know why
Skin and bones, touch the sky
Sex and lies, can't bring me down
'Cause I sold my soul
All over town

90s

shinynewapple21 · 20/05/2021 09:42

They tried to take me to a doctor
But it's too late for me
Then they took me to a preacher
That they saw on their tv
Who said that for a small donation
My lost soul would be saved
I said I don't think so preacher
I'll come back another day

90s

shinynewapple21 · 20/05/2021 09:44

Praying for the wave to come now
It must be for the very last time
It's twelve o'clock till midnight
There must be someone to blame

90s

My head's stopped working 😳

I think I can hear OMD in my head, but aren't they 80s?
RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 20/05/2021 17:35

We all owe thanks to the NHS after the year you've just worked, carnage

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 20/05/2021 17:46

Rogue, agreed. NHS workers have worked tirelessly - lets not forget that as well as COVID, they had to with things like idiots falling off horses.....which they did magnificently.

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 20/05/2021 17:47

But I still have no idea about any of the songs

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 20/05/2021 17:51

Were you one of those idiots, dexter? I seem to remember when you first joined the thread you saying you were hurt

Honeyroar · 20/05/2021 17:55

How are you doing now Dexter? Hope you’re feeling much more like normal. Have you ridden since?
