Hi Gis !
Now I know I'm getting old when people start referring to songs from the 80's as 'old' ! :'(
It is not the song I was thinking of and I can't find the words to # 13 in it.
Sorry Gis

1. I THINK this is Foreigner's "That was Yesterday", but I don't remember the "now" being tagged on the end of the line...
11. A Flock of Seagulls -- "Wishing (if I had a photograph)" (The artist jumped right out at me on this one, but I had to mentally go through a couple songs because "Space Age Love Song" kept entering my head.)
12. Orchestral Manuevers in the Dark -- "Secret"
Kryllith
Subject: Re: FB's 80's Lyrics Quiz
All Correct Krill-man !
You are probably right about # 1 - I do them from my head on the train in the morning.......so ther eis lots of scope for errors !

You're quite right it's 'they make me sad they make me glad'.
What I meant was wasn't Shakey's a cover of an old 50's or 60's tune?
Subject: Re: FB's 80's Lyrics Quiz
6 is "I Ran" by A Flock Of Seagulls.
Subject: Re: FB's 80's Lyrics Quiz
#9 is "The Dead Heart" by Midnight Oil.
Subject: Re: FB's 80's Lyrics Quiz
Well as DJ Midas beat me to the answer to 9, 15 is 'Sounds of Then' by GANGgajang, often incorrectly referred to as 'This is Australia'.

I'm not sure to be honest - I only remember Shakin' having a couple of hits in Australia, and the only one I can actually remember is Green Door.
Perhaps some of our other contributors can help with this one ?

# 3 So I Followed It's Parade, With All The Fancy Lion Tamers (Song was sung by a female singer - the band she was part of was well known in the 60's then in the 80's (I think) 'updated' part of it's name to something more futuristic)
Dreams by Grace Slick is one of my favourites.I should have known...
