Oh it's a freebie. OK.

"Show me how you do that trick

The one that makes me scream" she said

"The one that makes me laugh" she said

And threw her arms around my neck

"Show me how you do it

And I promise you I promise that

I'll run away with you

I'll run away with you"

*thinks*

Hm. Sounds familiar. But what's the title....

Is this "Paradise" by the band "Remedy", featuring lead singer Bob Jones?

Am I close?

I feel no chagrin at being unable to answer this one. :lol:/>/>

George

Maybe not, but go to YouTube sometime and check out the songs I put up recently.

They're quite good.

You've come close to the title, andI have never heard of the band Remedy.

So, no.

So, no.

So, then,

is it "Just Like Heaven" by The Cure, featuring lead singer Robert Smith?

I know the song. Just not sure about who sang it.

There's 2 correct answers to that.

"Some silicone sister with her manager's mister told me I got what it takes.

She said, 'I'll turn you on sonny, to something strong if you play that song with the funky break.'

And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see if it was safe to go outside.

And little Early-Pearly came in by her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride.

Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer playin' backyard bombardier.

Yes and Scotland Yard was trying hard, they sent a dude with a calling card.

he said, do what you like, but don't do it here.

Well I jumped up, turned around, spit in the air, fell on the ground

Asked him which was the way back home.

He said take a right at the light, keep goin' straight until night, and then boy, you're on your own."

"Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun.

Oh, but Mama, that's where the fun is."

Blinded by the light "some silicon sister with a manager mister told me I got what it takes"

The name of the band is not coming to me.

Is it Commander? something.

Well, if you told me you were drowning

I would not lend a hand

I've seen your face before my friend

But I don't know if you know who I am

Well, I was there and I saw what you did

I saw it with my own two eyes

So you can wipe off the grin, I know where you've been

It's all been a pack of lies

It's all been a pack of lies

Well I remember, I remember don't worry

How could I ever forget, it's the first time, the last time we ever met

But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no you don't fool me

The hurt doesn't show; but the pain still grows

It's no stranger to you or me

"In the Air Tonight", Phil Collins.

Phil said he has no idea where weird stories about the origin of this song come from.

Some people said it has something to do with Phil seeing a man able to help a drowning

victim or something and refusing to help. So Phil finds out who he is, and sends him

a front-row ticket. He then sings this (brand new) song entirely at the guy, who then

goes home and commits suicide.

Phil said a lot of his songs are about divorce, and that's all I've heard about this.

Yes. I heard it was about his divorce too. Hey if lost that my money in my marriage

I'd probably write about that too.

"Hey now woo, look at that did he nearly run you down

At the end of the drive, the lawmen arrive you make me feel

Alive, alive, alive.

I'll take my chance, 'cause luck is on my side

Or something, I know what you're thinking.

I'll tell you something, I know what you're thinking."

"She don't need to understand.

And I might find her if I'm looking like I can."

"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

Like a birthday or a pretty view.

But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you."

"Moving on the floor now babe you're a Bird-of-Paradise.

Cherry ice-cream smile, I suppose it's very nice.

With a step to your left and a flick to the right

You catch that mirror way out West.

You know you're something special and you look like you're the best."

"...and she dances on the sand,

Just like that river twisting through the dusty land.

And when she shines, she really shows you all she can"

I guarantee this follows my older rule of only songs released 1985 or earlier.
