Guess The Song

First topic message reminder :

How to Play
-- The first person (that would be I) must post a line or two from a song of their choosing.
-- Everyone elses' job is to try and work out which song it is originated from by posting on this thread.
-- once the questioner has confirmed a correct answer, the person who correctly guessed the song first them gets the opportunity to post a line of their own choosing...

Rules
-- The line must be easily recognisable from one particular song; not something that could be from any one of a number of songs.
-- Try to keep them amusing and original in order to keep the fun rolling.

Le's go!

"And the sign said 'long-haired freaky people need not apply'"

not G n R

Back in Black

yes

Tell your friends all around the world
Ain't no companion like a blue-eyed merle
Come on now, well, let me tell you
What you're missing, missing 'round them brick walls.

Led Zeppelin - Bron-y-aur Stomp

( we had a blue eyed merle collie )

Did you? We had the standard Border Collie. Gorgeous dog.
it's a great foot-tapping tune that.

yes he was a lovelly dog , and those eyes were piercing

try this one

Two, of a billion stars it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you

Sounds like a 70s disco song? American?

Rio - Duran Duran

yes

Haunting notes, pizzicato strings
The rhythm is calling

Vienna - Ultravox. it means nothing to meeeeeeee!

It doesn't mean a great deal to me either, but you're correct.

your up LB

you or someone else go ahead. I'm off to bed in a tick.

Wondering what I could make of my life, and whod be waiting,
Asking all kinds of questions, to myself, but never finding the answers,

In too deep - Genesis

yes

Taffy’s time’s gonna come one day
It’s a loud sweet voice and it won’t give way
A house is not a holiday
Your sons are leaving home Neil.

i have heard that before , but can't place the song

sounds like a Welsh band, no?

No, Scottish

its not Simple Minds is it ?

No.

I might have even done this song before on this thread, but with a different verse :-
Love is international
And if you stand or if you fall
Just let them know you gave your all

Aztec Camera ?

think you are right.

Kenny wrote:Aztec Camera ?

Yes, but what song?

well its not Young at Heart i dont think , so im stuck .....................i was just going on the Scottish band thing

no idea still... another hint please?

Chorus :-

The past is steeped in shame
But tomorrow's fair game
Life is for the living
<song title>

Might have to wait until Kenny gets back. Not too familiar with Aztec Camera.

Oh, it's 'Good Morning Britain'.

Luckless Pedestrian wrote:Oh, it's 'Good Morning Britain'.

yes it is

Someone else can have a go, I can't think of a line that isn't really obvious.

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out

U2 - Beautiful Day

yes

will need to have a think about the next one. Anyone else can have a go...

You said you'd return
You said that you'd be mine
'Till the end of time
Don't wait any longer

Why don't you come back (clap), please hurry

Paul Young - was it called Come Back and Stay?

yes

I really lost my head last night
You've got a right to stop believing
There's still a little love left, even so

Dont give up on us baby - David Soul one of the 1st records i bought

Kenny, we're still worth one more try!

Still looking for that blue jean, baby queen
Prettiest girl I ever seen
