Love The The. One of my teen soundtracks

BasiliskStare · 17/01/2022 19:33

Well in which case @Honeyroar I hope you don't mind if I regift it to @NeedToKnow101 now you have listened to it

I used to love them.

Honeyroar · 17/01/2022 20:47

😄yes regift it!

Honeyroar · 17/01/2022 20:47

And thanks for the thought!

AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes · 17/01/2022 21:17

Thanks @BasiliskStare the song Infected is familiar but don't know the other song.
Had a Google there, the song I'm thinking of is called Heartland. Don't think I've heard it since about 1986!

AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes · 17/01/2022 22:25

With auburn hair and tawny eyes
The kind of eyes that hypnotise me through

80s

Honeyroar · 17/01/2022 22:33

That’s A Flock of Seagulls - I Ran

AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes · 17/01/2022 22:42

Take off your eyes, bare your soul
Gather me to you and make me whole

80s

Rogue1001 · 17/01/2022 22:43

Hazel O'connor.
Will you

AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes · 17/01/2022 22:43

@Honeyroar

That’s A Flock of Seagulls - I Ran
Correct @Honeyroar.
Rogue1001 · 17/01/2022 22:44

I keep missing loads

Rogue1001 · 17/01/2022 22:44

The The. I can see the album cover!

Rogue1001 · 17/01/2022 22:45

(In my mind)

AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes · 17/01/2022 22:46

Correct @Rogue1001.

Get well soon Hazel.

That was quick both of you, just finished typing!

Honeyroar · 17/01/2022 22:49

It’s about time I posted some lyrics!

I have a picture Pinned to my wall (80s)

I’m at the stage
Where everything I thought meant something
Seems so unappealing
(80s)

Nothing, nothing, nothings gonna Step in my way (80s)

Mother Nature isn’t in it
300 million years
Goodbye in just a minute
(80s)

Steam in the subway
Earth is afire
(80s)

Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You’re just like a dream
(80s)

Hot sticky scenes
(80s)

I ain’t never gonna work Get down in the dirt I choose to cruise (70s)

But then you let me down
When I look around
Baby you just can’t be found
(80s)

Where did you come from baby
And ooh won’t you take me there
(80s)

Honeyroar · 17/01/2022 22:50

@AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes

Correct *@Rogue1001*.

Get well soon Hazel.

That was quick both of you, just finished typing!

Yes really sad about her. Fingers crossed for her.

AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes · 17/01/2022 23:00

It is sad @Honeyroar, Will you is such a brilliant song, one of my favourites.

Honeyroar · 17/01/2022 23:02
