    Just to keep in practice with throwing topics off-thread, what's the 80's song that goes...

    "Lets dance... put on those red shoes and dance the blues...
    Lets play..."

    Just thought it perfect lyrics for Bill

    I believe that's 'Let's Dance', by David Bowie. Though I could be wrong!!

    Who's the quizmaster here anyhow???

    Jayne, It's Christmas, so I'm gonna give you that one 'Time of my life', even though you didn't get the Medley bit. You got close enough. No extra points for the bit in brackets. Sorry CJ.

    You do get one point though for 'The Greatest Love'. Well done Steven, 2 points for 'Crazy for you' and 'Every breath you take'.

    I guess that it's not Lou's choice of music though!!

    Latest scores:
    Franck, 6
    Graham, 6
    Lou, 2
    CJ, 2
    Steven, 2
    Jayne, 1

    Still another 6 to guess, and the link too....

    1. I'm goin' back in time and it's a sweet dream,
    It was a quiet night and I would be alright if I could go on sleeping.

    2. That this love I have inside is everything it seems.
    But for now I find it's only in my dreams.

    5. Circus life
    Under the big top world

    6. You keep me standing tall
    You help me through it all

    8. For the morning sun in all it's glory,
    Meets the day with hope and comfort too,

    9. I'll get to you somehow
    'Cause I promise now

    Steve

    To be honest, it's the ones that people haven't got yet that aren't my cup of tea.

    Have to admit I cheated (google). Could give all the songs/artists but that would be boring. I'm not totally sure what theme you had in mind, but I found all of these on a particular site (66.181.161.226 - to make it non-obvious to anyone not wanting to cheat), so I have an idea...

    1. The Best of my Love - The Eagles

    2. Change the World - Eric Clapton

    5. Faithfully - Journey

    6. Glory of Love - Peter Cetera

    8. Have I Told You Lately? - Van Morrison or Rod Stewart (my guess would be Rod)

    9. If Ever You're In My Arms Again - Peabo Bryson

    I'm guessing the link is wedding music?

    Well done Graham. 6 points for all correct answers. And 5 points for getting the link close enough.

    Current scores are:
    Graham 17
    Franck 6
    Lou 2
    CJ 2
    Steven 2
    Jayne 1

    A big lead for Graham.

    Next round to follow soon....

    Okie. Here's the next round. Remember, 1 point for every track (including artist/group), 5 points for the link. No using the internet to look up tracks until Boxing Day!!

    1. I'm gonna rouge my knees and roll my stockings down.

    2. Baby, you've got me beat up and down, inside-out, and across.

    3. Spread the whipped cream for at least an hour.

    4. When all of a sudden, somebody put this knife at my throat.

    5. How's about a few laughs?

    6. When I say do it, jump to it.

    7. And there's a lady in the kitchen making hot dog soup.

    8. I can tell by the way you walk that walk.

    9. All the downtown ladies call him treetop lover.

    10. A pint of rye and a case of slim jims for your masticating pleasure.

    Best of luck. And happy Christmas.

    1 point for the Louis Prima one.

    Those lyrics may be in Staying Alive. But they're also in another song. And it's that one I'm after

    Sorry.

    Erm, I'm terribly late to this, but no. 1 is All that Jazz, and it's from Chicago. I'd guess Ute Lemper but obviously it depends on yer cast list

    Cover versions??

    8. I Just Wanna (Make Love To You) Written by Muddy Waters, but most famously sang by Etta James. Oh, and Paul Rogers, too.

    Emma, 1 point for "All that Jazz" by Ute Lempur. "Big Bad Leroy Brown" is the right song, but not the right artist yet.

    CJ, 1 point for "I just wanna make love to you" by Etta James.

    Certainly is Rachel.

    One of my favourites too (and if that isn't a hint to the connection, I don't know what is ).

    1 point to you.
