@NeedToKnow101

Correct Carnage ✅😘 I now have an ear-worm of a mix of walking on sunshine and how deep is your love.. singing away under my mask on the way to work 😍🕺🏽
“Night fever night fever…….you can walk on sunshine”. It fits, I suppose 😁😁
CarnageRoundTheMaypole · 27/05/2021 08:50

@ssd these are outstanding from last night

Somebody told her that there was a place like heaven
Across the water on a 747
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world
80s

And this one

I know we're different now
Different as night and day
But still I want you
I just want you to stay

I wanna take this chance
I want to be with you
Cuz what you're looking for
I am looking for too
80s

Hi Folks. This was a pm I sent to most of you at the end feb/beginning of march.
(apologies if I missed anyone out)

Hey you!

As another awards night is peeping over the horizon at us, I was wondering about doing another after show disco?
I'm doing it early so that there's a reasonable chance that any song you pick you might have forgotten you've chosen.

If you want to play, send me some songs you like to dance to.

In honour of the current thread, I'm thinking let's go for cheeeeese! Guilty pleasures. Songs you love to dance to but don't really want to admit to liking.
Two of the ones I've picked are ones where (in the dim and distant past) the first notes have started and I've said "ooo I love this one" and then been like "ummmm Blush " (but stayed and danced anyway)

If you didn't get this pm, or didn't reply to it, or just want to add to it, then pm me before tomorrow night and I'll add your songs to the playlist.

Steve - you only sent me two songs and stated an intention to add to the list, but you didn't.

Mostly it's a matter of luck @ssd whether you happen to open the thread just as the lyrics are posted

No it's not 😂😂
NeedToKnow101 · 27/05/2021 18:01

Rogue I'll try and think of a few more songs 🕺🏽💃🏽😍

Fleamaker123 · 27/05/2021 21:36

Is the thread a year old tomorrow... Sorry trying to catch up!
Rogue I've sent you my list of cheese 👍

Honeyroar · 27/05/2021 22:01

Yes it’s the anniversary tomorrow. Feels like it’s been longer to me.

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 27/05/2021 22:24

What was the first lyric you posted on the original thread?

Mine was
The truth can't hurt you it's just like the dark
It scares you witless
But in time you see things clear and stark

I wonder what happened to the OP @ItsNotJaneFonda - does she know what she started - or is that one of us under a different name?

midgedude · 27/05/2021 22:26

Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 27/05/2021 22:39

No idea what my first lyric was.

We ought to link to the first thread. I bet midge has got a link. Midge, have you?

I know I know yours, pantry, but my mind is blank 😆
