<div align="center">ROMEO VOID Never Say Never (1981)



If time itself was his demeanor
There'd be no sunlight or a glimmer
Of sunlight landing on the street,
Sunsuit girls must be discreet.
Sunsuit girls must be discreet,
Nursing their fathers locked inside
They masquereded as his bride

I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
But ther's something in your eyes that says "maybe"
That's never!
Never say never!

Slumped by the courthouse with wind burnt skin
That man could give a fuck about the grin
On your face as you walk by
Randy as a goat
He's sleepin' on papers but
He'd be warm in your coat
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
But there's something in your eyes that says "maybe"
That's never!
Never say never!

There's no easy way to lose your sight
On the street, on the stairs
Who's on your flight?
Old couple walks by
Ugly as sin
He's got her,
She's got him

I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
But there's something in your eyes that says "maybe", That's never!
NVR SAY NVR

Sun seems to move,
Across the sky so slow
It's us who's turning
With nowhere to go
Sun seems to move,
Across the sky so slow
It's us who's turning
With nowhere to go

I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
But there's something in your eyes that says "maybe", That's never!
Never say never! </div>
I Ran - Flock of Seagulls

I walked along the avenue.
I never thought I'd meet a girl like you;
Meet a girl like you.
With auburn hair and tawny eyes;
The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through;
Hypnotize me through.

And I ran, I ran so far away.
I just ran, I ran all night and day.
I couldn't get away.

A cloud appears above your head;
A beam of light comes shining down on you,
Shining down on you.
The cloud is moving nearer still.
Aurora borealis comes in view;
Aurora comes in view.

And I ran, I ran so far away.
I just ran, I ran all night and day.
I couldn't get away.

Reached out a hand to touch your face;
You're slowly disappearing from my view;
Disappearing from my view.
Reached out a hand to try again;
I'm floating in a beam of light with you;
A beam of light with you.

And I ran, I ran so far away.
I just ran, I ran all night and day.
I couldn't get away.
I can honestly say that I never EVER liked New Wave. I think the closest thing to New wave I actually like in any way may be INXS and I would have to be really drunk to actually listen to them.
Admit it Sean....you have a pristine copy of "Shaboo Shooba" at home that you listen to occasionally.....when you contemplate suicide, homicide...or some other cide that comes to mind.
I think he prefers the ultimately gay song "I need you tonight". We must ignore Sean. He did not grow up on MTV and he did not live through the horror and confusion that was brought on by Remote Control. A great show, but why is their a 30 minute show on a Music Video station?????

Antmusic

Well I'm standing here looking at you
What do I see?
I'm looking straight through
It's so sad
When you're young
To be told
You're having fun

So unplug the jukebox
And do us all a favour
That music's lost its taste
So try another flavour
"Antmusic"

Well I'm standing here what do I see?
A big nothing
Threatening me
It's so sad
When you're young
To be told
You're having fun

Don't tread on an ant he's done nothing to you
And there might come a day
When he's treading on you
Don't tread on an ant you'll end up black and blue
You cut off his head
Legs come looking for you

Stand And Deliver - Adam Ant

I'm the dandy highwayman who you're too scared to mention
I spend my cash on looking flash and grabbing your attention
the devil take your stereo and your record collection!
the way you look you'll qualify for next year's old age pension!

Stand and deliver your money or your life!
try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!

I'm the dandy highwayman so sick of easy fashion
the clumsy boots, peek-a-boo roots that people think so dashing
so what's the point of robbery when nothing is worth taking?
it's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake he's making

Stand and deliver your money or your life!
try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!

and even though you fool your souls
your conscience will be mine
all mine

We're the dandy highwaymen so tired of excuses
of deep meaning philosophies where only showbiz loses
we're the dandy highwaymen and here's our invitation
"throw your safety overboard and join our insect nation"

Stand and deliver your money or your life!
try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!

and even though you fool your souls
your conscience will be mine, all mine

da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa
da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa

Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Stand and deliver your money or your life!...

my FAV tune:

SEND ME AN ANGEL" Real Life

Do you believe in heaven above
Do you believe in love
Don't tell me a lie
Don't be false or untrue
It all comes back to you
Open fire on my burning heart
I've never been lucky in love
My defences are down
A kiss or a frown
I can't survive on my own

If a girl walks in
And carves her name in my heart
I'll turn and run away
Everyday we've all been led astray
It's hard to be lucky in love

It get's in your eyes
It's making you cry
Don't know what to do
Don't know what to do
Looking for love
Calling heaven above

Send me an angel
Send me an angel
Right now
Right now

Send me an angel
Send me an angel
Right now
Right now

Empty dreams can only disappoint
In a room behind your smile
But don't give up, don't give up
You can be lucky in love

It get's in your eyes
It's making you cry
Don't know what to do
Don't know what to do
Looking for love
Calling heaven above

Send me an angel
Send me an angel
Right now
Right now...
What's on Your Mind (Pure Energy) - Information Society


I wanna know
What you're thinking.
There are some things you can't hide.
I wanna know
What you're feeling.
Tell me what's on you mind.

Here i am in silence,
Looking round without a clue.
I find myself along again.
All alone with you.
I can see behind your eyes,
The things that i don't know.
If you hide away from me,
How can our love grow?

I wanna know
What you're thinking.
There are some things you can't hide.
I wanna know
What you're feeling.
Tell me what's on your mind.

I know I could break you down,
But what good would it do?
I could surely never know
That what you say is true.
Here i am in silence,
It's a game i have to play.
You and i in silence.
With nothing else to say.

I wanna know
What you're thinking.
There are some things you can't hide.
I wanna know
What you're feeling.
Tell me what's on your mind.

I wanna know
What you're thinking.
There are some things you can't hide.
I wanna know
What you're feeling.
Tell me what's on your mind.

I wanna know
What you'er thinking.
There are some things you can't hide.
I wanna know
What you're feeling.
Tell me what's on your mind.
<center>What Do All The People Know
The Monroes


you know I told you once tonight
that you could always speak your mind
you work so hard to say what's right
I watch you do it all the time

and when I called you on the phone
you said that I could be the one
but here I'm standing all alone
and you're out lying in the sun

tell me
am I getting in too deep
every night I'm talking in my sleep
lately I am so confused
I really don't know what to do

could you be the one I'm thinking of
could you be the girl I really love
all the people tell me so
but what do all the people know

you know I told you once tonight
that you could always speak your mind
you work so hard to say what's right
I watch you do it all the time

and when I called you on the phone
you said that I could be the one
but here I'm standing all alone
and you're out lying in the sun

tell me
am I getting in too deep
every night I'm talking in my sleep
lately we're just holding on
to something that will soon be gone

could you be the one I'm thinking of
could you be the girl I really love
all the people tell me so
but what do all the people know

do you think i'm blind to what you do
do you think I really care for you
or is it just another game
that you and I pretend to play

do you think we both should let it show
do you think we both should let it go
or is it just another game
that you and I pretend to play

tell me
am I getting in too deep
every night I'm talking in my sleep
lately I am so confused
I really don't know what to do

could you be the one I'm thinking of
could you be the girl I really love
all the people tell me so
but what do all the people know

all the people tell me so
but what do all the people know

all the people tell me so
but what do all the people know</center>
Hey, I for one LOVE metal, but I also love New Wave. Here's one that's not really a New Wave song, but it is 80s ish. I should keep it on topic, but....

Kayleigh
Do you remember chalk hearts melting on a playground wall
Do you remember dawn escapes from moonwashed college halls
Do you remember the cherry blossom in the market square
Do you remember, I thought it was confetti in our hair
By the way, didn't I break your heart
Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart
So sorry, I never meant to break your heart but you broke mine

Kayleigh, is it too late to say I'm sorry
And Kayleigh, could we get it together again
I just can't go on pretending that it came to a natural end
Kayleigh, oh I never thought I'd miss you
And Kayleigh, I thought that we'd always be friends
We said our love would last forever so how did it come to this bitter end

Oh oh yeah

Do you remember, barefoot on the lawn with shooting stars
Do you remember the loving on the floor in Belsize Park
Do you remember dancing in Stilletos in the snow
Do you remember, you never understood I had to go
By the way, didn't I break your heart
Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart
So sorry, I never meant to break your heart but you broke mine

Kayleigh, I just wanna say I'm sorry
But Kayleigh, I'm too scared to pick up the phone
To have hear you've found another lover to patch up our broken home
Kayleigh, I'm still trying to write that love song
Kayleigh, it's more important to me, now you're gone
Maybe it'll prove that we were right or it'll prove that I was wrong
Quote:Hey, I for one LOVE metal

You had BETTER be referring to music and not me gah dammit :fuckoff:

Marillion....always a good choice to get mellow :thumbs-up:
