FC's Excellent 80's Lyrics Quiz

[Kahuna]

20/ Hold me Now (or Warm my Heart,not sure on title)----Thompson Twins

[Footy Chick]

Bah. By the time I discover the cool quizzes all the easy ones are gone

Anyhoo:

7 - If I Was, Midge Ure

will have to think about the remainder...

Well I did warn you...

the above answer is correct...

[Footy Chick]

20/ Hold me Now (or Warm my Heart,not sure on title)----Thompson Twins

Got it right first go

[spell_check]

3) Some like it hot - The Power Station

[Footy Chick]

3) Some like it hot - The Power Station

Yep, that's the one spelly!

[Pseudo]

20. You asked if I love you/what did I say?
Hold me now - Thompson Twins

Shenanigans!

You ask if I love you,
What can I say?
You know that I do
and that this is just one of those games that we play

[Footy Chick]

I think you'll find thats the first verse.. my line was taken from the 2nd

C'mon Pseudo, Im expecting you to get no.19, you 80's genius you...

[Pseudo]

C'mon Pseudo, Im expecting you to get no.19, you 80's genius you...

That actually helped; I figured it had to be something tacky if you were taunting me with it, and tacky it is. Unfortunately I don't know the artist or even the actual song title. But the chorus goes something like "searching, looking for love, I've gotta find a man". Right?

Pretty tough quiz BTW. If I'd come across it before 3/4 of the questions had been answered I reckon I might have gotten only 5 or 6 of them.

[Footy Chick]

Yep, you're on the right track there Pseudo.

In saying that's a tough quiz, I am now certain I would whip your proverbial behind in a game of Name that tune 80's (of which these lyrics aren't from, btw...)

You have been challenged...to a duel

[Booney]

80's music.
