Okay, the movie quote game is too rough for me- time for a little shifting of gears- let's try songs instead!
I'll give out a lyric from a tune, and anyone interested can try to name the song. (Bonus points for naming the band as well.)Here goes:"Think of the tender things that we were working on..."Good Luck!

I know I've heard that before but I can't pin it for the life of me. Anyone else care to give a shot at HP's song?
HP is there any thing else about this game people should know? Like how the next song for guessing gets posted? Is it like the movie game or do you have some thing else in mind?

I'm having this topic pinned
. This area of the forum has topics move by faster than the sci fi & fantasy area.

Oh Oh!!! I think I know this one

please remind me!!!
I am a HUGE 80'S music fan, however mostly Austrlaian 80's stuff. If anybody quotes any lyrics from anything but the 80's I'll have no chance.
(Later Edit:)
PS I just read what HP wrote about not knowing anyting newer than 10 years.... I hear ya Mate!!!!

If the above is classed as a win, please let me know cause i'll post some lyrics for you to guess
In the meantime, here is a link the a classic aussie song from the 80's, its quite significant as the the bald bloke gyrating out the front of the band like a an epileptic chicken is just recently been elected as a Federal Minister (in other words, this man could potentially run our country, although he's currently in charge of Environmental matters)

"I hread my voice call out your name"
if thats too tricky then i'll post some more lyrics. Should be a pretty easy one.

I'll give it to you, you got the song title!
(The band is Simple Minds, by the way.)
Oh, and I didn't even have to click the link to know you were referring to Midnight Oil! I have four of their CDs!
(I'm still working on your own quote, it does sound familiar...)

Yes i listened to a Cold Chisel tape al the way around Europe in 1993, so whenever i listen to them (which I do all the time) it reminds me of all the places in Europe
If you love 80's music then there is a whole horde of Australian bands that had fantastic 80's stuff, in particular Cold Chisel, Crowded House. Check them out on You Tube if you get the chance, I'm sure you'd love their music
Now any chance anyone knows the answer to my "Name That Tune" questions!!!!
