Apologies if I've missed anyone. All welcome to come & play!

I was dreaming of the past
Shiny got Jealous Guy, but named a band when it’s a solo and didn’t mention original artist, so I’m not giving points and this is still partially outstanding in my eyes

Shiny you were robbed!

Rogue, I have to take issue with you here - the cover of Jealous Guy was indeed Roxy Music, not Bryan Ferry solo.

"I see the people happy
So can it happen for me"

Is Kate Bush, is it Sat in your lap?

O judge
O mum and dad
Mum and dad

Is this Oh Superman by Laurie ... Anderson???

@Rogue1001MNer

Here's a bonus lyric in compensation. Also 80s

Patti packed her bags, left a note for her mama, she was just seventeen

Rod Stewart Young Turks

@Rogue1001MNer

Breaking through

80s

I wish for my world of make believe And the rebel in my souls says go And the rebel in my soul says go Can you hear it breaking through? Can you hear it breaking through?

@Rogue1001MNer

Toe to toe

80a

I think someone guessed spandau ballet and true for this.

Which it is.

But, ooops....

But it's also this, which is what I was thinking of...

Toe to toe
Dancing very close
Barely breathing
Almost comatose
Wall to wall

@Rogue1001MNer

Sweet nothing

80s

Om my golly gosh. I've just realized what song this is from.

Shame on you all

Shame on me

What do I see?

Sweet nothing

@Rogue1001MNer

Time is short

80s

Shame on us all AGAIN

We should all be banned from this thread!

'Cause time is short and and life is cruel but it's up to us to change

@FlouncingBabooshka

Isn’t the cherry ice cream one Rio?

Finally!!!!

I can't believe it took til now to get that one.

And correct with come on Eileen too, FB

Honey, not bow bow wow, but I can see the way your mind is going even though you can't; and it's in the right direction!

@Honeyroar

Your shame on you (Dex) semi conscious state one is Madness - Grey Day.

Correct, honey.

I hope any madness fans are suitably embarrassed

@Honeyroar

I can’t believe I didn’t get Cherry ice cream smile. I saw it earlier but thought it had been guessed!

I was stunned. I think of you as such a duranie

You're right. Opps. Who do I owe points to?

Ah, didn't read properly. Sorry shiny.

Spreadsheet now adjusted to add your point.

Fb has points docked, obvs, for publicly shaming me (even though I seem to have done my best to publicly shame myself over the last 24 hrs! My points are docked too)

@Turnitupto11

"I see the people happy So can it happen for me"

Is Kate Bush, is it Sat in your lap?

Correct Turnitup. Fb will be kicking herself for missing this. Tbh, not one of her best

@Turnitupto11

Very good. Yes

Pantry, correct with Rod the mod

Rod Stewart, Young Turks got by Pantry

Still outstanding:-

Why don’t you come in?
I’ve got lots of space for everyone
Why don’t you, my friend?

I’m bored

I don’t want to go to school

I wish for my world of make believe
And the rebel in my souls says go
And the rebel in my soul says go
Can you hear it breaking through?
Can you hear it breaking through?

What do I see?

Sweet nothing, threatening me

'Cause time is short and and life is cruel but it's up to us to change

Toe to toe
Dancing very close
Barely breathing
Almost comatose
Wall to wall

I'll post answers to any still un-got tomorrow x

I apologise for my answer.
I am suitably ashamed.

Apologies because the way I wrote it wasn't very clear.

I'm bored

I don't want to go to school

Two lyrics from same song. Separated by a gap cos the next line is from a new verse.

Does that help?
