Lyrics Game

[Arthur Richards from Kent]

HELP!

[Rogue Mermaid]

Alas, the thread has been dead for several weeks now.

Here's a some kinda easy and cheesy 80's lyrics to ponder:

Am I a fool,

at least my friends think so

Que sera sera

[Arthur Richards from Kent]

did people actually listen to new music in the 80's it's probably depressed mode

[Rogue Mermaid]

It was Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam - "Lost in Emotion"

Here's a different one, a very easy one:

Just look at the world around you,

Down here on the ocean floor,

Such wonderful things surround you,

What more is you looking for?...

[Mad Matt]

Under the Sea - from Little Mermaid

Do I get flogged fer knowin' that?

[Rogue Mermaid]

Yup, you get one free flogging .... and you get to give out the next set of lyrics

[Mad Matt]

Night-time sharpens,

heightens each sensation . . .

Darkness stirs and

wakes imagination . . .

Silently the senses

abandon their defences . . .

Slowly, gently

night unfurls its splendour . . .

Grasp it, sense it -

tremulous and tender . . .

[Rogue Mermaid]

Well after two months with no answer I'd say you stumped everyone Matt. I'm just going to throw out a new set of lyrics to get things moving (hopefully):

Josie's on a vacation far away

Come around and talk it over

So many things that I'd like to say

You know I like my girls a little bit older

[Hester]

Night-time sharpens,

heightens each sensation . . .

Darkness stirs and

wakes imagination . . .

Silently the senses

abandon their defences . . .

Slowly, gently

night unfurls its splendour . . .

Grasp it, sense it -

tremulous and tender . . .

Phantom of the Opera, "Music of the Night"

... which if funny, because I'm not much of a Webber fan, but I just saw Christine's post about PotO in Vegas.

However, Rogue Mermaid does indeed have me stumped.

Cheers, Hester

Go ahead an post a new set of lyrics Hester.

I always think mine are easy and 50% of the time I'm wrong. One of these days I'll figure out that I'm the only one who likes 80's pop

Hi, Rogue:

Geez ... 80's pop should be right up my alley, but I'm still stumped ... although my taste is to the alternative side of the genre, and across the pond.

Okay, let's see what I can come up with from that era:

I saw two shooting stars last night

I wished on them but they were only satellites

It's wrong to wish on space hardware

I wish, I wish, I wish you cared

Cheers, Hester

[PirateSSe]

"Robert De Niro's waiting,

talking Italian."

I love my 80's!

[Hester]

I wish, I wish, I wish you cared

Oops, sorry, I forgot I'd left that set of lyrics hanging before I went away on vacation for a month.

Since no-one got it during that time, I'll end the suspense and tell you that it was Billy Bragg's "A New England" (also covered in the 80's by the late Kirsty MacColl).

I had to google Piratesse's quote. The answer surprised me, because I remember the group but not that song. Anyhow, I won't give it away ('cause googling is cheating), but I think I'll look it up on BearShare to hear what it sounds like.

Cheers, Hester

The last post was from last September, so I'm going to attempt to resurrect the lyrics game. Here's a new set of lyrics:

Whats got you so jumpy?

Why cant you sit still, yeah?

Like gasoline you wanna pump me

And leave me when you get your fill, yeah

It's been awhile. So if you are new to the game here is how it works:

1. Someone posts a set of lyrics

2. Everyone guesses what song the set of lyrics belongs to (try not to just google it)

3. The person who posted the set of lyrics says who guessed the song correctly.

4. The person who guessed correctly posts the new set of lyrics.

[Boots MacGee]

That would be POISON Unskinny Bop I believe (big hair flashback)

Here's mine:

Rainbows are visions

But only Illusions

And rainbows have nothing to hide

[Red-Handed Jill]

"Rainbow Connection" from The Muppet Movie, I believe.

Here's mine:

Peeling the skin back from my eyes, I felt surprised

that the time on the clock was the time I usually retired

to the place where I cleared my head of you;

but just for today, I think I'll lie here and dream of you.

"Uncertain Smile"

[Red-Handed Jill]

Yep

[The Doctor]

Now if you have a taste for this experience,

And you're flushed with your very first success;

Then you must try a twosome, or a threesome

And you'll find your conscience bothers you much less.

Because murder is like anything you take to.

Its a habit-forming need for more and more.

You can bump off every member of your family,

And anybody else you find a bore...

[Capt. Sterling]
