    Lyric Quiz

    This song was done in 1979 & 1981 by 2 different divas:

    Had my fill of party scenes
    One night stands & neon dreams
    Goodtime friends & fancy clothes
    Flashing highs & crashing lows
    So if that's what's on your mind
    I'll just take a pass this time
    I believe I'd rather leave it all behind.

    P.S. The 1981 version featured Patrick Cowley & Sherrie Payne.

    Lyrics quiz

    If the song you mean starts slow, almost spoken i think it's the track by Angela Bofill - Holding out for love, believe it's been done by some other people too, Cher and someone i can't recall right now.
    Played the Angela Bofill track and it suits the lyrics, remember her Too Tough ? also a nice one...

    Regards, Peter

    Hey SD,

    I agree with Peter that it's one of my fave tracks by Angela Bofill from the "Something About You" LP. I just saw this LP when I was looking for the Johnny Bristol LP to find some stats for Barry!!! (Yes, I'm an alphabetical order kinda guy!!)

    I never knew that Mr. Cowley and Miss Payne recorded this!!!

    Was there ever an extended version of Miss Bofill's version? I only have it on the LP.

    Yes, Peter, I love Too Tough from 1983 also. A much under-rated track & LP.
    Marky, I'm not aware of a 12" version which is a pity. Patrick Cowley & Sherrie Payne actually played/ sang on Angela's version according to the notes on the LP sleeve! (Narada used alot of well-known people to play on his records- must be why they were such high quality).
