The two lyrics I put up last night weren't for pantry. Just two songs that came on

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 22/05/2021 07:49

Oh yeah, one was, wasn't it.

No you go for it. Pantry was too slow

Yup. Try this easy one...

Oh she's sitting with you
But her eyes are on the door

Morning all

Midge, hope you enjoy the time with your mum.

Rogue, how's the beacon this morning?

I’ve got a Nirvana one outstanding a couple of pages back on my little flurry. Plus a couple more by the same artist as my other outstanding one. I’ll try and bring them forward.

Honeyroar · 22/05/2021 10:36

@Honeyroar

1. Crystal bits of snowflakes All around my head and in the wind (80s)
Well I know your love is rough And the road ahead is tough But I just can’t get enough of.... (80s)

Don’t come knocking round my door
I don’t wanna see your face no more
Coloured lights can hypnotise
Sparkle someone else’s eyes
(90s)

My dreams were full of strange ideas
My mind was set despite the fears
But other things got in the way
I never asked that boy to stay
(80s)

Shadows blowin as the roses bloom
Looking down on a wonderland
(80s)

Monkey see monkey do
I don’t know why
Rather be dead than cool
I don’t know why
(80s)

Her love was mine
I know my sun will shine
(80s)

No 3 and no 6 still need guessing.
Honeyroar · 22/05/2021 10:37

@Honeyroar

But my outstanding one is nothing like that.

This is by the same person...

The futures in
Our present hands
Let’s reach right in
Let’s understand
(90s)

And this...

There were times I didn’t understand
And There were times I wouldn’t hold your hand
But now baby I’m here for you
Cause baby I’m so in love with you
(90s)

These need guessing too.

Totally agree with the spots and masks theory. I think I walk around with my gob open all day so my mask gets wet! I also seem to get forehead headaches. We’ve come to the conclusion that it’s because you can’t smile at customers so you end up over exaggerating other facial expressions to get across that you’re smiling! I’ll be glad when we don’t have to wear them. All day at work is too much!

I get you with the exaggerated other facial expressions 😂 It’s crap isn’t it wearing a mask all day isn’t it? At least it hides cold sores and curry breath …..
Fleamaker123 · 22/05/2021 11:59

Morning!

I've missed so much chatter!

Honeyroar, is no. 6 Terence Trent D'Arby?? Wishing Well??

Talking of masks, I was wearing one at work in class, and a pupil asked why is Flea angry? I'm not angry I said. Yes you are... and he pointed to the space between his eyes.. you've got a line 😂😂 Brutal!

For pantry:

Hey, teacher!

Sorry - late to the party as always

No Flea it’s a Nirvana one.

I was half in mind, I was half in need
And as the rain came down
I dropped to my knees and I prayed

NeedToKnow101 · 22/05/2021 18:10

[quote dexterslockedintheshedagain]@NeedToKnow101 I don't sadly. I should though, because whilst I'm a sucker for a Welsh accent of any description, hers and Kelly Jones from 'Phonics are my faves [/quote]
Just catching up after my night out out. You must listen to it Dexter. Her voice is rrrrrr. I think Welsh is my favourite accent. Well I've got loads of favourites tbh, but I do love a Welsh one.

NeedToKnow101 · 22/05/2021 18:12

@Honeyroar

I absolutely can’t stand Cerys or her Voice. Sounds so contrived to me.

I never knew The Alarm were Welsh. Despite living in Wales for a few years while at uni.

I’m a bit jealous of you guys with friends round or going dancing. I need to get a life. I seem to be content doing nothing still!

Lol!! Just saw this., 😂😂 it's not contrived she talks like that for 3 hours.. I'm not big into going out either, but it was a brilliant night and only five minutes walk from mine. (Hate travelling far and Uber's freak me out)

Honeyroar · 22/05/2021 18:22

I just totally went off her when she went on I’m a Celebrity. 😃

NeedToKnow101 · 22/05/2021 18:23

Love the festival idea Honey. We could do an 80s musical bingo event outside the trailer.

Missed loads of last night.. glad your mum can get out and about now Midge. ❤️

CoffeeBeansGalore · 22/05/2021 18:45

All 80s

It's 8:15
And that's the time that it's always been
We got your message on the radio
Conditions normal, and you're coming home

Move yourself
You always live your life
Never thinking of the future
Prove yourself

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ooh-ooh, ooh-woh
Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby

Although I'm not making plans
I hope that you'll understand there's a reason why
