So I'd like to know where, you got the notion

On the silverscreen
He melts my foolish heart in every single scene

90s hit, but much older track.

@RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat

Play the game fight the fight

Paul McCartney, Frog Chorus

@RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat

So I'd like to know where, you got the notion

Rock the boat, Hughes Corporation??

All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
70s and then I think 90s

Here in our paper houses,
Stretching for miles and miles
Old men in stripy trousers rule the world with plastic smiles
80s

We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully
Wonderfully pretty!

@RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat

all 80s unless otherwise stated

Your lights are on, but you're not home

Addicted to love, Robert Palmer

No reason, just seems so pleasing

70s

I got me a car, it's as big as a whale

80s

Elton John,

Nik Kershaw

I won't let the sun go down on me

She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
She leaves me in a cool, cool sweat

70s

@RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat

I got me a car, it's as big as a whale

Love Shack, B52's

Carnival
The wheels fly and the colours spin

@RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat

She drives me crazy She gives me hot and cold fever She leaves me in a cool, cool sweat

70s

Queen, crazy little thing called love

They try to tell us we don't belong
That's all right, we're millions strong
This is my music, it makes me proud
These are my people and this is my crowd

I'll take you down, I'll take you down
Where no one's ever gone before

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby

@RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat

Carnival The wheels fly and the colours spin

U2, unforgettable fire

Love that song, but it makes me feel a bit sad

See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone

@RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat

They try to tell us we don't belong That's all right, we're millions strong This is my music, it makes me proud These are my people and this is my crowd

Kiss, Crazy Nights

I'd rather live in his world (live in his world)
Than live without him in mine (world, world)
(It's his, his and hers alone)

Hits many times since the 60s onwards

It's dying now
She knows I'm crying now

60s, but I only have interest in the 80s version. You need both for the points, obvs
Don't get the 80s one wrong!

Misjudged your limits
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted

Straddle the line in discord and rhyme

Oh, my child
You got so much
You're gonna take away my energy
70s
