Last week’s lyrics proved really difficult. (That, or nobody’s reading these. I suspect it’s some combination of the two.) Better luck this week!
- “Friday I’m in Love” by the Cure, guessed by Kim
To see your shoes and your spirits rise - “All the Young Dudes” by Mott the Hoople, guessed by Occupant
Funky little boat race - “We Are the Sleepyheads” by Belle and Sebastian
I felt a whole lot better after that - “Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word” by Renee Stahl (orig. Elton John), guessed by Occupant
What have I got to do to make you love me - “Sunshine Superman” by Mel Torme (orig. Donovan), guessed by Occupant
When I say we’ll be cool I think that you know what I mean - “Nothing Compares 2 U” by Sinead O’Connor, guessed by Clayton
It’s been seven hours and fifteen days - “Stoned Love” by the Supremes
Put the present time at hand - “I Would Die 4 U” by Prince, guessed by Kim
I’m your messiah and you’re the reason why - “Hold Me in the River” by Brakes
It had been written down in law as a security cost - “Let Go” by Frou Frou
Can’t you see that all that stuff’s a sideshow?
6 – Nothing Compares 2 U – Prince, Sinead O’Connor
2. “All the Young Dudes” by Mott the Hoople
4. “Sorry Seems To Be the Hardest Word” by Elton John
5. “Sunshine Superman” by Donovan
#8: Itsy-bitsy-teeny-weenie yellow polka-dot bikini, by Brian Hyland.
Well, no, but I just wanted to prove I read this.
1. Friday I’m in Love by the Cure
8. I Would Die 4 U by Prince (who, I am just now realizing, invented text-speak)
Funny, I was just listening to Donovan today while I was feeding rattlesnakes. But Occupant beat me to the punch
And yet Prince has declared the Internet dead. Ironic, don’t u think?
Wow. I really can’t imagine Mel Torme singing that song…
It’s from this album.
