That 80's Tune

[Lorash]

Guess the song! Post a line or two from a favourite song that came out in the 80's (preferrably the first line or two (or verse, if you like), but only if it doesn't blatantly reveal the song title). Play nice and fair! No googling if you want your answer to count!

If someone guesses the song name and artist correctly, post a clue of your own.

Everyone Stumped? The original poster can then add however many more lines as needed untill it's guessed, or just post the answer and a new clue and let your own Ego expand in the knowledge that you do indeed rock!

First song:

"I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
And the touch of a world that is older"

[AslanC]

I'm on a Mexican... Radio! I'm a Mexican... Whoa Ohhh! Radio!

Wall of VooDoo!

Love that song :)

"I had to escape, the city was sticky and cruel"

Anyone?

[AslanC]

No one? This one should be easy... at least I thought so :(

[AslanC]

Okay as per the rules, here comes the next line...

"Maybe I should have called you first
But I was dying to get to you"

Anyone?

[AslanC]

"I Drove All Night" by Cyndi Lauper

Is anyone playing anymore?

I leave it up to anyone else to start a new song. :)

[coldcut]

It sounded familiar, but I disqualified myself due to Googling.

[WingedAvenger]

While I'm thinking of a song to post, here's an 80's lyric quiz (http://www.yetanotherdot.com/asp/80s.html)!

[AslanC]

Neat test, I somehow got 134 out of 100 questions :)

Okay someone post something here. :(

[One Hit Wonder]

Okay :D

"Went to a party last Saturday night.
I didn't get laid, I got in a fight."

[Alumette]

"It Ain't No Big Thing" by Lita Ford?

Assuming that's right, here's the next song:

"I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TV
Two of a billion stars it means so much to me..."

[One Hit Wonder]

Right artist, wrong song title, Al :D

[Alumette]

Right artist, wrong song title, Al :D

Gah! I knew it! I know the chorus goes "It ain't no big thing..." but I didn't think that was the title. Seems like the title is something with death in it... arg! Curse my ancient brain!

<bangs head against a wall>

Edit: Okay I just Googled it. I remember now and I feel really dumb.

[One Hit Wonder]

Hehe, sokay Al. Yours is gonna drive me crazy all day, cuz I know it, but it's just not coming to me atm, and I gotta go get ready for my last performance of my show followed by the striking of the set, so when it finally does come to me, I'll be miles away from my computer. Bah!

[AslanC]

One Hit's is "Kiss me Deadly" by Lita Ford, love that song :) Has anyone seen the Runaways movie/documentary?

Alumette's is "Rio" by Duran Duran :) That video was the sexiest video I had ever seen when it came out.

:)

Here's the next one.

"Do you believe in heaven in above?
Do you believe in love?"

[Lorash]

Real Life - Send Me an Angel

next!

This one is a fun one, but the lyrics might be hard, so I'll post a bunch:

"Get up...
Get down...

Radio, video
Boogie with a suitcase
You're livin' in a disco
Forget about the rat race
Let's do the milkshake, sellin' like a hotcake
Try some buy some fee-fi-fo-fum"

[AslanC]

"Talk about... Pop Musik! Talk about... Pop Musik!"

The imfamous band known as M

Nice one...

Next up...

Like Lorash's, this one needs more than one line... so here are the first 4..

"If I tell you
If I tell you now
Will you keep on
Will you keep on loving me"

[AslanC]

Anyone? Come on, this one is easy :)

[Lorash]

Ok, I'll bite: Sade's 'Sweetest Taboo'

next! (super easy)

"Close your eyes, give me your hand, darling"

[Dynamo-Man]

The Bangles, Eternal Flame. I loved her so much back then...

Ok, how about this:

"I could start dreamin'
But it never ends."
