I've just scored 10/10 in a Facebook quiz, identifying which 60's song some excerpts came from. This inspires me to start yet another game thread (sorry), not necessarily using 60s hits.

Name the tune this line comes from (and add a line from another number)

"I could make you mine, taste your lips of wine . . ."

Not sure of title but it starts 'sugar pie honey bunch' by possibly the four Tops.

They ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles

Something to do with New Orleans?

"goodbye you moonlight ladies" (I think)

I'm going to stop looking at this thread as I can't place any of the lyrics but as soon as someone posts an answer I think 'Of course!' blush

grannylyn65 Thu 27-Apr-17 17:41:50

I have to keep checking!!

shysal Thu 27-Apr-17 23:16:16

I thought LadyGracie's was David Bowie's Here Comes the Night.
I am like Kitty, know them as soon as I see the answer.

This ain't no technological breakdown.

shysal Thu 27-Apr-17 23:21:50

Sorry Bbnan, I didn't answer yours blush. I don't know it.
