Subject: Karen's *Difficult 80's* Lyrics Quiz (DONE)
This is a small collection of lyrics from less-popular songs of the 80's. Of course what's difficult for some might be a piece of cake for others. The idea is to have fun trying to figure these out. Because there aren't many, I would appreciate once again if you could limit your answers to 3. Thanks!
Well since no one is making any more guesses on this quiz I might as well tell you all what the ones that weren't answered are...
CB98 1. "Across the water on a 747" (Calling America/ELO)
Criz 2. "Carrying the weight of popular demand" (If I Was/Midge Ure)
J.C. 3. "There's no heat without a flame" (No Smoke Without A Fire/Bad Company)
4. "If I was a book you could read my mind" (Waiting/Elizabeth Daily)
W.L. 5. "Making love to a paper moon" (Boys Do Fall In Love/Robin Gibb)
DJMidas 6. "You said you could replace me" (In Your Letter/REO Speedwagon)
7. "Breakin' down the walls, breakin' all the rules" (We Are The Young/Dan Hartman)
W.L. 8. "I know who left those smokes behind" (Him/Rupert Holmes)
Criz 9. "Love's touch comes to mean so much" (French Kissin'/Debbie Harry)
10. "They said it could last forever; I don't know" (Heart To Heart/Kenny Loggins)
CB98 11. "He pulled that old Houdini" (A Fine, Fine Day/Tony Carey)
W.L. 12. "No way she's gonna get away" (This Time/Bryan Adams)
J.C. 13. "I've had enough, now I want my share" (What About Me/Moving Pictures)
W.L. 14. "You know the kind with the velvet collar" (Keeping The Faith/Billy Joel)
T.O.N. 15. "Who loved you from the start?" (Sweetheart/Franke & The Knockouts)
Criz - DJMidas 16. "Still taking all the heat" (I'm Not The One/The Cars)
J.C. 17. "New York, Moscow...Hong Kong, Tokyo" (Passion/Rod Stewart)

That's not a problem, DJ! I don't mind as long as it's slowed down and people aren't answering as much. BTW, both of those are 100% ocrrect! I will give Criz partial credit on #16 as she had the right artist but wrong song. ;)
