Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
80s

Ashes to Ashes, David Bowie

One line each from three bands - the first I ever saw. All 80s

A curious smell, an intangible crime

On the table, signs of love lies scattered

I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry

Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
80s

Bowie - Ashes to Ashes

@RogueMNerKnowsNoShame

All other guesses correct, but what's the link?

It's NOT Meghan markle

Thread one?

Love is so confusing ...

Is Blondie Heart of glass

For other ugly scenes
You did what you did to me
Now it's history I see

• Big in Japan Alphaville

You're running with me
Don't touch the ground
80s

Slave to Love, Bryan Ferry

And my link?

I do not like MM. Rip her to shreds was an attempt at humour.

@FlouncingBabooshka

Dexter - your second one is Robert Palmer Looking for Clues. I once posted the entire lyrics minus the title and nobody got it so I shall be mightily miffed if someone has beaten me to it tonight!

Yes FB, it is!

Sorry. Didn't realise we'd gone over a page.
Yes, needtoknow.
7 points.

Yes, all lyrics from thread 1, but NOT the lyrics posted, from elsewhere in the song.

Evening! I couldn't find you all!

1991 was NOT a good year for music...

I knew it!!!!!! A whole 7 points. I'm made up!

Hi Flea!

I have a whole load of very easy lyrics to post - it will be a bun fight...

Evening! You mean TOTP? No it wasn't.

Don't count your chickens @NeedToKnow101, she could swipe them just as quick 🤣

My 80s dreamboat

Until you realize
It's just a story
Until you realize
It's just a story

Love a dream of a love affair
That's, over, past & dying
Celebrate, the great escape
From lunacy divided

Bless my cotton socks, I'm in the news
The king sits on his face buttons all askew
All wrapped up the same (same)
All wrapped up the same (same)

@AJumpedUpPantryBoy

Here's 3 from me

All 80s

1. The devil will find work for idle hands to do

2. When you cycled by
   here began all my dreams

3. I wear Black on the outside
   'Cause Black is how I feel on the inside
   And if I seem a little strange
   Well, that's because I am

I can't think what no 2 is.

But 3 is unlovable

My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you
I've been running 'round in circles in my mind
80s

Rogue, this is REO Speedwagon, Can't fight this feeling

Don't count your chickens *@NeedToKnow101*, she could swipe them just as quick 🤣

😂😂 Roger that Coffee. the hand that give the, also taketh away.

@NeedToKnow101. - Teardrop Explodes. The last is Reward. I know the first one - I can hear it but can’t remember the title.

3 is reward.
