Remember the music game we had a couple of years ago?
A sort of name that tune, you write a line from a song and others have to guess the song title, and ( if possible) the artist.
Whoever guesses correctly gets to write the next line from a song.If a poster doesn’t come back quickly to say’yes, that’s correct’ just go ahead ahead anyway and have your turn.
It sort of works!

Gilly is that from 'You Can Thank your Lucky Stars'? - not sure if that's the title, but I'm hearing the song in my head! Also can't remember who sang it...

Gilly was yours a Dean Friendman song

Lucky Stars by a Dean Friedman, Gilly?

Credence Clearwater Meno.

Went to see them in the 70s at the Manchester Free Trade Hall.

I never saw them but my brother was a big fan and he was my hero so his music was my music

I love Bad Moon Rising, the soundtrack to ‘An American Werewolf in London* grin one of the cult classics.

In These Shoes by Kirsty Maccoll, Chewbacca?

The light shines down the valley
The wind blows up the alley..
Anyone?
