    Killer Oldies

    OK, here are some oldies.... which should narrow them down to a few thousand 8) . Try to guess these slow tunes. Good Luck. :D

    Star system = degree of difficulty



    1) **

    Somethin' goin' wrong
    someone's on the phone
    3 o'clock in the morning, hey
    talkin' 'bout how she can make it right
    happiness is when you really feel good about somebody
    nothing wrong being in love with someone


    2) *****

    Please stay with me now
    don't you let me go
    I can make it somehow
    I got to let you know that I
    will make it some how, some way
    though I wouldn't own the day
    what I'm doin' gotta pay some way
    some how

    3) *****

    I would season everyday of my life with you
    you better let me tell ya
    I will show you just what it means to be true girl
    you better let me tell ya
    cause I'm the love that's come and gone
    baby, i'm the lonely one
    but, why should a man be lonely
    when he had someone like you
    how can I make you believe
    that I got to have you baby
    got to have you baby
    yes I got to have to you baby


    4) *

    Many guys have come to you
    with the line that wasn't true
    and you pass them by
    though your endless sorry
    and their lines don't mean a thing
    why don't you let me try
    now I don't wear a diamond ring
    I don't even know a song to sing


    5) ***


    One day child
    I won't have to listen to your lying
    and that day I will be able to make up my own mind
    you know I think I can finally realize (yes I have)
    and now I think I can put you out of my life


    6) *

    You're surely must know magic girl
    cause you changed my life
    it was dull and ordinary
    you made it sunny and bright
    now, I was blessed the day I found you
    gonna build my whole world around you


    7) ***

    the sun is shining there's plenty of life
    a new day is dawning
    sunny and bright
    but after I've been crying all night
    the sun is cold and the new day seems old

    #1 is "Love & Happiness" by Al Green.

    "La La Means I Love You" was originally by The Delfonics (produced by Thom Bell). Swing Out Sister did cover it.
    "Lost inside adorable illusion...."

    K-Bee #7 is correct =3 points
    Com-King #4 is correct =1 point
    DJ-Pir #6, #1 is correct = 3 points

    great jobs guys :D


    a clue for the other 2

    #3 is a vocal group (males) from the early 70's
    #6 is a band who was over the top during the 70's, but failed to do anything in the 80's....
