@Honeyroar

Tough is the leather that’s strapped to my skin Strong are the bonds that we make (80s)

I remember the things that we used to do
A kiss in the rain til the sun shines through
I try to deny it
But I’m still in love with you
(80s)

These are unguessed and I am not getting any hints
Honeyroar · 12/09/2021 11:07

First one is an 80s boy band.
Second one a solo female

shinynewapple21 · 12/09/2021 21:10

Honey - your second one is Natalie Cole, miss you like crazy

Honeyroar · 13/09/2021 21:46
