Some of these may test your memory of your favourite songs from yesteryear :no: and newer! :baby:
Lyrics Quiz
*
Name the songs, also if you know the artiste 8) put their name down but some songs have been sung by other artistes so it is the title that counts.
*
1. “To dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, with all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves - let me forget about today until tomorrow “
*
2. "I can't be holding on to what you got when all you've got is hurt".
*
3. “I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but its you I cant replace”
*
4. “Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you”
*
5. “Don’t need a virgin priest
But I need someone I can cry to
I need someone to protect”
*
6. “Don't think I need anything at all.
No! Don't think I'll need anything at all.”
*
7. “So many dreams I kept deep inside me
Alone in the dark but now
You've come along”
*
8. “And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, the words of the prophets”
*
9. “Love can bend and breathe alone
Until the end it finds you a home
Don’t care what the people may say”
*
10. “She's a big teaser, she took me half the way there
She's a big teaser, she took me half the way there now”

8. Sound of Silence – Simon & Garfunkel
9. Fairground – Simply Red 3. Every Breath You Take – The Police
10. Day Tripper – The Beatles
And niggling:
4. “Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep

I keep humming ‘I Drove All Night’ but I’m sure it’s Roy Orbison singing and I didn’t think he did that song (in fact he might have been dead by the time it came out) :no:
Good quiz though, thanks Dave :graduate:

That puts the rest of us to shame. :-[

See here Steph ...

YOU are sooooooooooooo good on music (and other things of course ! ) :clap2:
-
The one that I did get was no 3 - Every breath you take - Police.
No 4 - Now you mention it - youre right it is "I Drove All Night", but like you its not Roy Orbison that I'm thinking who sang it.
-
Celine Dion recorded it as well Kitz (not that I KNEW that, I just spotted it when I googled for the You Tube thingy for Steph ) ... :) Perhaps that's who you were thinking of ??
-
Got it (with the help of google) cause I was thinking female singer.
Possibly Celine Dion-I Drove All Night (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NV5nqF6mVCQ).
Although Cindy Lauper (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUjOs-_A2Ls) also did a cover of it which I also remember - probably my fav version and the one I was thinking of.
-
That puts the rest of us to shame. :-[
Ooooh sorry :-\ it involved much mutterings for some of them believe me, I got some funny looks in Asda yesterday ::)
Thanks for the vid Kate, I'm not so crazy after all then. I thought 'that's it' when I read Cyndi Lauper Kitz, but I'd never have associated Celine for some reason - probably because I shut off when she's on lol!
-
A rather testing one this week.
I threw in the Celine Dion clue as a wild card and it threw you a bit but here are the answers.

They were all winners of the Oscar for Best Actor in that specific year
