I don't know who sang it,, but it's called glorious

The rain came down o'er the cold grey town as he carried you away from your father's hand that always seemed like a fist.
80s

Student band?

Deacon blue???

Dignity?????

I'm not sure, but I'm sure someone else will know it

Here she comes like a brand new day Belly dancing across the room In the moonlight I watch her sway 90's

A really wailey indie ish song. Something like marvellous?

Hello @ODFOx welcome to the thread. Not ringing any bells for me I'm afraid. I'm sure someone will get it shortly

Happy and I'm smiling.
Walk 3 miles to drink your water.
Released V early 70s. Recorded late 60s

I find a map and draw a straight line over rivers, farms and straight lines
Noughties

Ive forgotten what I started fighting for. It's time to bring this ship in to the shore
80s

Hello *@ODFOx* welcome to the thread. Not ringing any bells for me I'm afraid. I'm sure someone will get it shortly

Thanks for the welcome. It's a song I sing to the garden when I'm full of wine. Scottish folk rock. Did quite well in the charts.

Third one is I can't fight this feeling REO speedwagon

It might be Big Country ... but I can't remember the song name.

The song title is only mentioned once in the song and it isn't in the chorus. It is Big Country.

Bugger. It's 'over rivers, farms and state lines' not straight line twice, apologies.

Can't fight this feeling anymore.. REO Speedwagon

Big Country - Chance

It is Big country but can’t think of the name. It had a really nice instrumental melodic bit, almost oriental.

I think it was Andreas Johnson or somebody - Glorious

Carnage if Rogue hadn’t recently commented I’d have thought she’d stolen your name!

Yes Rogue for 74 75, The Connells

And for Glorious 👍

Yes it’s Carnage @Flea, thought I’d jiggle my name round a bit 😁

@CoffeeBeansGalore

Still left.

We're so incredibly utterly devious
Making the most of everything
70s

When your heart has been broken
Hard words have been spoken
It ain't easy
80s

Tempt me, tease me
Until I can't deny this
Loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah, come on
Yeah
2000

I have never ever ever hated a group so much as The Corrs.

That other one they did - Runaway 🤮🤮🤮🤮

They are even worse than Westlife …..and that’s saying something.

Corrrct for The Corrs Carnage. Sorry!

Hi everyone.

Everyone’s dancing their troubles away
Come join our party, see how we play
(80s)

Came back only yesterday
I’m Moving further away
Want you near me
(80s)

Two versions of the second one. Points for both. Both 80s.
