Sorry Flea, I didn’t put any of your Sonia hits up!

Honeyroar · 31/07/2021 13:54

So no 5 is in guessed…

Rogue1001 · 31/07/2021 14:29

Ahem!

Shiny got the title of the womack x2 wrong, and I got the beatles before Abhannmor got the very wet cover.
I am adjusting the points appropriately

Fleamaker123 · 31/07/2021 15:17

There's always another night for Sonia's timeless classics, Honey!

Was that the programme with Suggs presenting?

Honeyroar · 31/07/2021 15:17

It was the wet cover I was after because it was all 88 tracks. Plus you didn’t get a few titles (like Patrick Swayze) but I still let you get it, so don’t push your luck!

Honeyroar · 31/07/2021 15:18

It was Flea. He looked rather old!

UN Guessed.

What is no5

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 01/08/2021 16:56

This life. This love
All the sweetest I feel
So mysterious yet
So incredibly real

The first time-Robin Beck.

Came to me as I was drinking my Diet Coke because it was used on a Diet Coke advert!

Honeyroar · 01/08/2021 19:50

Correct Dexter with no 5.

midgemagneto · 05/08/2021 22:32

A wee theme

There's nothing quite like it for cooling the blood

That's neat that's neat that's neat that's neat

You know the nearer your destination
The more....

Rogue1001 · 05/08/2021 22:47

Mud, mud, glorious mud

Tiger feet by mud. I'm sensing a theme here midge...

midgemagneto · 06/08/2021 10:24

You have the theme

Just one more song unless I can think of more

Honeyroar · 06/08/2021 11:27

Is the theme relevant to you Midge? Are you getting heavy rain?

midgemagneto · 06/08/2021 11:38

Rogue was on it , a lot of mud , different phase states present and all on only a few hours rain ( so far !)

shinynewapple21 · 06/08/2021 16:40

Slip sliding away !

midgemagneto · 06/08/2021 17:41

By...?

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 06/08/2021 17:42

Paul Simon?

midgemagneto · 06/08/2021 19:15

That's certainly what I thought yesterday according to dh ... my memory for details is not colocated with the rest of my head

midgemagneto · 07/08/2021 17:05

Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I want to go home

I've traveled the land
With a guitar in my hand
