agent 47 Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 By the way, another '80's classic popped into my head just now ...Family Man by Hall & Oateshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvSoSq2m9zM&feature=relatedShe had a sulky smileShe took her standard pose as she presented herselfShe had sultry eyes, she made it perfectly plain that she was hisfor a priceBut he said leave me aloneI'm a family man and my bark is much worse than my biteHe said leave me aloneI'm a family man but if you push me too far I just mightShe wore hurt surprise as she rechecked her make-up to protect herselfDropped her price and pride she made it totally clear she was his for a nightShe gave him her lookIt would have worked on any other man aroundHe looked her up and downShe knew he couldn't decide if he should hold his groundShe turnedTossed her head unlike her opening move her final exit line He waited much too long but by the time he got his courage up she was gone Then he screamed leave me alone I'm a family man and my bark is much worse than my biteHe said leave me aloneI'm a family man, but if you push me too far I just might Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators timm525 Posted October 15, 2010 Author Administrators Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Has our conscience shown?Has the sweet breeze blown?Has all kindness gone?Hope still lingers on.I drink myself of newfound pitySitting alone in New York CityAnd I don't know why.Are we listening?Hymns of offering.Have we eyes to see?Love is gathering.All the words that I've been readingHave now started the act of bleedingInto one.So I walk up on highAnd I step to the edgeTo see my world below.And I laugh at myselfWhile the tears roll down.'Cause it's the world I know.It's the world I know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bren 10 Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 There are so many 80s songs I think are great, its my absolute favorite music, but if I had to pick ONE, Id say it has to be Phil Collins (I can Feel it)Coming in the air tonight- I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh LordI've been waiting for this moment, all my life, Oh LordCan you feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord, Oh LordWell, if you told me you were drowningI would not lend a handI've seen your face before my friendBut I don't know if you know who I amWell, I was there and I saw what you didI saw it with my own two eyesSo you can wipe off the grin, I know where you've beenIt's all been a pack of liesAnd I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh LordI've been waiting for this moment for all my life, Oh LordI can feel it in the air tonight, Oh Lord, Oh LordAnd I've been waiting for this moment all my life, Oh Lord, Oh LordWell I remember, I remember don't worryHow could I ever forget, it's the first time, the last time we ever metBut I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no you don't fool meThe hurt doesn't show; but the pain still growsIt's no stranger to you or meAnd I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord...

Guest kleine miss jackie Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 This song isn't from the lovely 80ies, but it sounds like the 80ies... http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2aa3q_def-leppard-when-love-hate-collide_music Def Leppard - When Love And Hate Collide You could have a change of heart, if you would only change your mind Instead of slamming down the phone girl, for the hundredth timeI got your number on my wall, but I ain't gonna make that callWhen divided we stand baby, united we fallGot the time got a chance gonna make itGot my hands on your heart gonna take itAll I know I can't fight this flameYou could have a change of heart, if you would only change your mindCause I'm crazy 'bout you baby, time after timeWithout youOne night alone Is like a year without you babyDo you have a heart of stoneWithout youCan't stop the hurt insideWhen love and hate collideI don't wanna fight no more, I don't know what we're fighting forWhen we treat each other baby, like an act of warI could tell a million lies and it would come as no surpriseWhen the truth is like a stranger, hits you right between the eyesThere's a time and a place and a reasonAnd I know I got a love to believe inAll I know got to win this time[Repeat Chorus][sOLO]You could have a change of heart, if you would only change your mindCause I'm crazy 'bout you baby...Crazy...CrazyWithout youOne night aloneIs like a year without you babyDo you have a heart of stoneWithout youOne night aloneIs like a year without you babyIf you have a heart at allWithout youCan't stop the hurt insideWhen love and hate collide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisIsForRique Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 Long Way To GoI'm new here and this is my first post. I loved the song "Long Way To Go" by Phil Collins and Sting that appeared in "Sons and Lovers", the season 2 finale:While I sitting here trying to think of things to saySomeone lies bleeding in a field somewhereSo it would seem we've still got a long long way to goI've seen all I wanna see todayWhile I sitting here trying to move you anyway I canSomeone's son lies dead in a gutter somewhereAnd it would seem that we've still got a long long way to goBut I can't take it anymoreTurn it off if you want toSwitch it off it will go awayTurn it off if you want toSwitch it off or look awayWhile we're sitting and we talk and talk and we talk some moreSomeone's loved one's heart stops beating in a street somewhereSo it would seem we've still got a long long way to go, I knowI've heard all I wanna hear todayTurn it off if you want to(Turn it off if you want to)Switch it off it will go away(Switch it off it will go away)Turn it off if you want to(Turn it off if you want to)Switch it off or look away(Switch it off it will go away)Switch it off, switch it offSwitch it off, switch it offSwitch it off, switch it offSwitch it off, turn it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
