Once again...Name that 80's Tune!

[Common Sense Party]

Post a few lyrics from a popular song from the decade of the 1980s, and we try to guess the song and artist.

A few rules:

1) It must be a song other people would have actually heard in the 80s. Don't try for the uber-obscure.

2) Guessers--no Googling. You can only guess from memory. If you don't know one, move on.

3) If you're posting the lyric, you can look it up first--and robably should, to make sure you have the phrasing right.

HAVE FUN!!!

9. The Zoo - Scorpions

I know the other ones you listed too, but this one was the most ridiculous.

[Common Sense Party]

11. Ridiculous in what way? n/t

[Symarip]

20. The way guys with bigger perms than my mom

and bad German-to-English translation skills can be. But, y'know, if you relate to 'here I am, rock you like a hurricane' than that's your business.

[Common Sense Party]

25. Hopefully your mom's perm doesn't suffer from the same pattern

baldness that Klaus Meine's suffers from.

And yes, I like the Scorps. To each their own.

[Common Sense Party]

3. I bit off more than I can chew...Only so much you can do n/t

[nomorenomore08]

21. Jesus and Mary Chain - "Happy When It Rains"

That whole 'Darklands' album is just classic - might even be better than 'Psychocandy,' in some ways.

[Arugula Latte]

24. Love that song.

:thumbsup:

[Common Sense Party]

29. Agreed. I love Darklands. I was ambivalent about Psychocandy.

[Common Sense Party]

[nomorenomore08]

Great guilty-pleasure song, but Jesus, why'd they have to take off the make-up around that time? The KISS guys are uglier than Lemmy, for God's sake, and at least there's only one of him!

[Common Sense Party]

23. I was kind of hoping they'd just put paper bags over their heads

a la The Unknown Comic

[Common Sense Party]

[Arugula Latte]

153. Oui!

[nomorenomore08]

31. "I'm walking in the rain, to end this misery..."

And no, it's NOT a cover of Del Shannon's "Runaway," it's a quoting of those lyrics in a different song. But which one...?

[Common Sense Party]

34. It could have been done in a different kind of way

But that ain't you

[Common Sense Party]

161. But that ain't you you play tough when you play n/t

[Common Sense Party]

35. Baby, ain't it somethin' how we lasted this long n/t

I went to jr. high and high school in the 80s. I can't tell you how much seeing lyrics from Flock of Seagulls or Tears for Fears or Adam Ant or any other 80s band just almost drowns me in nostalgia.

51. "My beacon's been moved under moon and star / where am I to go ...

/ Now that I've gone too far..."

[Common Sense Party]

54. When the Bullet Hits the Bone - Golden Earring

I never knew what that beacon line was.

[Mad_Dem_X]

111. Actually, it's "Twilight Zone"

[Common Sense Party]

132. Oh that's right. "Help I'm slippin' into the Twilight Zone"

[Common Sense Party]

80. (Anything! Anything!)

Take the skinheads bowling - Camper Van B

[Symarip]

82. I had a room mate who swears he's the inspiration for that song

Given the time and place CVB was around and when he supposedly hung around, it's quite possible.

[Common Sense Party]

90. He wasn't a skinhead, was he?

[Symarip]

91. Crazy you should mention that

I believe he might have been. Or, he just liked to look really sharp.

[justabob]

I don't know what band it was though...

[Common Sense Party]

94. And in a lover's rage, they tore another page n/t

[redqueen]

214. That's too easy.

How has no one guessed this?

It's Journey...

...

One Heart? Is that the name? Or Who's Crying Now?

[Common Sense Party]

241. Who's crying now. I was surprised no one got that until now. n/t

[Symarip]

95. You've been around for such a long time now Oh maybe I could leave you but I don't know how

And why should I be lonely every night
When I can be with you, oh yes you make it right


(This song was done twice in the 80s - the original being the artist who penned it as well... Kudos to anyone who can name both artists)

[Mad_Dem_X]

112. I only know one: Tracey Ullman (sp?)

[Symarip]

114. Right!!!

But Kirsty MacColl wrote it and sang it first as a minor UK hit. She eventually recorded with The Pogues and The Talking Heads and had an interesting solo career in South America. She was struck by a boat in a bizarre hit and run accident in Mexico in the early 2000s and passed away.

[Common Sense Party]

96. Cuz if there's something better, baby, well they haven't found it yet n/t

[flvegan]

146. Whoa-oa-oa, your love is like Bad Medicine

[Arugula Latte]

97. Louise is a girl, I know her well / She's up on the pavement, yes she's a weather girl

And I'm staying up here so I may be undone
She's inappropriate, but then she's much more fun

[Arugula Latte]

154. No one? ... Okay, it's "Perfect Skin" by Lloyd Cole. A little tricky.

[Corgigal]

98. I was listening to this song...shouldnt be too hard

Everytime I think of you
Everytime I think of you
Everytime I think of you it turns out good

Everytime I think of you

[Common Sense Party]

100. Could it be..."Everytime I think of you" by the Babys?

Not sure why that title just popped into my head.

[Corgigal]

101. yep yep..you're too good

No idea why I'm listening to it now..but I was

(Since mine seem to go unanswered a lot, I've decided to add hints: this is a song from a collaborative effort that surfaced in the late 80s between two seemingly unlikely partners.)

[LaydeeBug]

125. Pet shop boys? God that lyric is singing over and over again...

but I just CAN'T name the song.

It'll come to me at the most inopportune time. The song says "All my life" in the exact same cadence as "Love my way" from the psych furs, but I know that isn't it. :hi:

202. That seems unlikely.

I liked that one hit he had. I don't remember anything else I've heard of his.

[Arugula Latte]

206. His big hit was "Crazy"

Here is the "Gone Daddy Gone" video. It's buggy!
