Dear all

Nothing to do with flying at all....
I am having a post wedding celebration "do" in October and part of the entertainment is a pop quiz.
The lucky Mr Rebe and I have compiled a list of songs for the quiz but think they are too easy. Does anyone have some good obscure songs I could add into the mix?
Any suggestions appreciated!!!
Rebecca

I saw them live supporting Squeeze in the early 80's. Very tall hair.

Here's another few that may be apt;

PJH - Good advice :) ! This is our wedding "do" number 3 and mainly consists of our friends and younger relatives. Dread to think of the abuse if we go it wrong!

A modern love story (at the time) - very obscure, only heard it once as a Kid then found it again 2 years later, did try and find it on an Emirates flight once, I was bored

See what you've started here Rebecca? Such a blast from the past, takes me back...

I'm an 80s teen fed on a diet of pure 80s pop and 60s/70s Tamla Motown and Soul by my parents (who worked in clubs during the 70s).

And up in my loft I have my old record case with my collection of 45s and in that case is the Robin Beck / First Time single. Pure magic!

Hope you 'do' goes well.

D'oh! Good catch. Being a huge fan of Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds and Rockpile that should have been my first choice....except it is about somebody marrying the wrong chap.
