Name that tune

No wonder the late seventies was a boom-time for divorce!

Strangers in the night Alea?

Yes, but if you listen to the lyrics, they don't care that their man is sleeping around, treats them like rubbish and generally ignores them - 'a woman in love loves only one man...'

Yes, well ...

They probably made quite a bit of money from it and didn't need a man!

If you want to hear a song which would really make feminists apoplectic, listen to this by the Three Degrees! I could hardly believe the lyrics when I heard it played on the radio a few weeks ago...

As you were...

ninathegrandad I really don't think so!!(only just tepid)!!

It was indeed "Bobby's Girl" as in
"I want to be (beat)(beat) Booby's girl" etc.
Dreadful song if you have your feminist hats on

I can only remember one of Susan Maughan's - Bobby's Girl

Um, no then,
is it the Haka?

Alea DH says "swing low"

I clicked the link - but that's cheating!

I can't believe you haven't clicked the link!

Anyway, if I am not treading on any toes

Da da Dee da Dah
Da da de da de da de Dah
De da de da Dah Dah
De da de da da de Dah

So who's next?
Nobody guessed it so I think you should have another go Alea.

???
No, Susan Maughan!

Alea, I don't need clues, as this sounds like the first record I ever bought,
hoots Mon! By something like Lord Rockingham?

I see it now!

It's difficult - there was once a music quiz on the radio and one item was to name a tune from a sort of tapping sound, which gave the rhythm but not the notes. I could sometimes get those.

No, Elegran!!!
Give up?
Click the link!

Alea Is that Delilah?

Yes, that is now my ear worm, but at least it's got rid of '12345 once I caught a fish alive' (my GD's current favourite!) so thanks Alea

And I apologise if that becomes today's "ear worm"!!

My brain hurts!!!

Another clue

Sounds like something from Les Miserables but it can't be

I will sleep on it

De de Dede (beat)(beat)de de Dah
De de Dede (beat)(beat) de de Dah
De de de de de de de de Dah-ah
Repeat first two lines
Dah Dah Dah de Dede Dah de da-ah.
(clue, an evening of retro pop songs from the 50's and 60's)
