Animal is a Ram Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Love it when you hear a line in a song that give away a song's age. Two of my personal favourites: And she won't be surprised and she won't be shocked When she's pressed the star after she's pressed unlock Ah, simpler times when you didn't need a password/thumbprint/face scan to get into your phone. For those under the age of 20, look up the Nokia 3310 for some context. Send a treasure token, token Write it on a pound note, pound note A pound note? Paper money to the value of £1? Get out of here. Points for those that can name the song/artist on each. Got any better ones, folks?

Stive Pesley Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 The first ones that spring to mind are Blondie "I'm in the phone booth - it's the one across the hall..." You're in the what and it's where now? and Joan Jett "Put another dime in the jukebox baby" Put a what in the what now? Animal is a Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaspode Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Not lyrics but the whole song: Paul Simon - Kodakchrome Diana Ross - Upside Down - "Respectfully I say to thee, I'm aware that you're cheating" - evidently written in the 1800s....(or Yorkshire) Edited December 7, 2022 by Gaspode Mucker1884 and Kinder 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please pass me my wine, we haven't had that spirit here since 1969. Beers, Wines and Spirits, therefore wine isn't a spirit. k********..
