Originally John Fogarty (CCR) but yes, from the 80's: Status Quo - first act for Live Aid

I don't think this one has been used before ...

Sunday bloody Sunday U2

Not completely sure whether the title is correct, maybe a Sunday too much?

Well then, here I go again. It's been in the charts worldwide, again one of my favorite artists.

Let's fall in love, get married, have a baby

Hopefully this will help a bit:

OK - from the latest lyrics I'm pretty sure that's a Prince song...but which one...hmmm

fkoene · Post by **fkoene** » Wed Apr 17, 2024 9:57 am

The artist, formerly and presently known as Prince is correct Plummy.

Sorry, sort of chaotic week at work, so giving more clues slipped my mind. But here's the next line:

By chance his girlfriend came across a needle and soon she did the same

I didn't google the words but looked up a track list for Prince - and reckon by a process of elimination that it's - Sign Of The Times...?

You're right again, Plummy. Back to you.

This should go in about 3 seconds...

I hear you singing in the wire
I can hear you through the whine

Plummy, slightly longer than 3 seconds. Wichita Lineman.

I thought it might have been used before but my search said not. All yours Jill...

Thank you Plummy.

Although this song doesn't appear to have been put up before, it shouldn't be too much of a challenge for the little grey cells.

But it's home
The only life I've ever known

Ha!

My over-stressed little grey cells are stuck between "Here We Go Again" and "Lonely Street of Dreams".

Peter, hopefully the following lyrics will relieve your suffering.

I was born in a trunk
Mama died and my daddy got drunk

Are we talking The Animals and Tobacco Road here??

Yes we are Plummy, although the song has been covered by several groups including The Nashville Teens.

Over to you.

I think I have this on an obscure, later MUD album as well. Good old BOOM radio in the UK playing stuff like this. I'll pop something new up shortly...

plummy · Post by **plummy** » Wed Apr 24, 2024 6:39 pm

OK - something a bit rocky - from the 80's

I got to have a shot
'Cause what you got is, oh, so sweet
You got to make it hot
Like a boomerang I need a repeat

plummy · Post by **plummy** » Sun Apr 28, 2024 10:31 am

OK - a couple of clues. The next line is the song title.

US band (trio) one with an ironic name.

Wolfmiester · Post by **Wolfmiester** » Mon Apr 29, 2024 11:17 am

Definitely ZZ Top then ... "Give me all your lovin"?

I thought that my clues would give it away! Yes, correct Wolfie

Wolfmiester · Post by **Wolfmiester** » Tue Apr 30, 2024 7:34 am

OK, this was a big hit in the UK, but have not checked anywhere else. So apologies in advance ...

First 2 lines though.

"Never mind the starts in the sky
Never mind the when and the why"
