🎵 80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 39 ⭐

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Come on in.
Post a few lyrics of a song from 70s, 80s, 90s with the decade & we will try to guess the song & artist.

The only thing I could think was the Neil Diamond song which goes something about 'pour me a drink and I'll tell you some lies' but that was just from the clues and I don't think it is that .

It's not Neil Diamond but someone very similar from that era and from the same area!

A bottle of red, a bottle of white
It all depends upon your appetite
Meet you anytime you want
in our ..........

Starts off slow, fast bit in the middle then slow again! Telling a story.

Sorry Goody, not getting it .

Okay will post the answer!

It's Scenes from an Italian restaurant by Billy Joel. Love this song.

Absolutely NOT!

Don't know the song, Goody.
Will have to look it up

I'm not sure it was actually a single but is on his greatest hits CD which I have!

Some for the weekend. There isn't a theme as such but all the following songs have one thing in common.

1 Theres no comfort in the truth, pain is all you'll find (80s)

2 My blood's sweet for pain
The wind and the rain bring back words of a song (80s)

3 You know he's never gonna stop movin'
'Cause he's rollin', he's the rolling stone (70s)

4 It's ok, dont go away, i feel bad when you're closing the door (80s)

5 Your face is just beaming
Your smile got me boasting, my pulse roller-coastering (90s)

6 I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze (80s)

7 Don't it always seem to go (70s)

8 I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs (90s)

9 Alone here in the kitchen
I feel there's something missing (70s)

1. George Michael, Careless whisper

Correct.

3 is Baker Street- the late great Gerry Rafferty.

9 is Up the Junction by Squeeze. One of my all time favourite songs!

6 is A different corner by George Michael. Is that not been on here a few times recently?! 😀

7 is Big Yellow Taxi- Joni Mitchell.

@AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes

All your guesses are correct. A different corner is there because it fits the 'theme'.

5 Your face is just beaming
Your smile got me boasting, my pulse roller-coastering (90s)

Simply red, for your babies

6 I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze (80s)

George Michael, different corner

Evening! Don't think this one has been done before...
'But to lose you would cut like a knife'
80s

Ha ha

I'm not sure, but would that be George Michael @NeedToKnow101 ?

A few from me

1.	 Are we all strangers?

Does anyone really care?
90s

2.	 Tired of doing day jobs

With no thanks for what I do
70s

3.	 Watching the tele and thinking about your holidays

80s

4.	 Oh, I walk out into the sun, I try to find a new day

But the whole place just screams in my eyes
80s

5.	 People can change, they always do

Haven't they noticed the changes in you?
80s

6.	“A movie or a measure?"

I'll have a cup of tea
70s

7.	You know this scene is very humdrum

And my favourite song's entitled 'boredom'
80s

8.	 You always said we'd meet again  someday 

80s.

9.	 Confidence taken in

By a suntan and a grin
80s.

10.	 The sound is in my ears

I can't believe the things you say
They echo what I fear
80s

Break the window by the town hall
Listen, a siren screams
80s

I've realised what this one is @FlouncingBabooshka but only because I went to post lyrics from this song myself- I thought it was familiar !

1. Sugar Minott - Being with you

That's the only one I can get Shiny. Pathetic. I know number 2 but can't quite get it.
Yes to George Michael btw.

And I've probably got 5 wrong too. I think the artist is wrong.

1. People can change, they always do

Haven't they noticed the changes in you? 80s

I don't care about anything else but being with you?
Can't remember the artist..Smokey?
