Friends, I am trying to compile great songs from 80's and 90's in this thread. I believe, most of us have grown up listening to songs from this generation. Please help me compiling by posting songs of your choice. Any genre is welcome.
Let me do the first honor by including this song called "Careless Whisper" by WHAM. WHAM was a band of two talented artists: George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley, before they decided to split later on.
This song is dear to me and always will be because it was the first english song that my tiny ears as a kid listened to, and boy what a song it was to start with.
Enjoy!!
Artist: George Michael (WHAM) Title : Careless Whisper
=====================================
Time can never mend the careless whispers of a good friend To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind there's no comfort in the truth pain is all you'll find
Should've known better
I feel so unsure as I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor as the music dies, something in your eyes calls to mind the silver screen and all its sad good-byes
I'm never gonna dance again guilty feet have got no rhythm though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend and waste the chance that I've been given so I'm never gonna dance again the way I danced with you
Time can never mend the careless whispers of a good friend to the heart and mind ignorance is kind there's no comfort in the truth pain is all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again guilty feet have got no rhythm though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend and waste this chance that I've been given so I'm never gonna dance again the way I danced with you
Never without your love
Tonight the music seems so loud I wish that we could lose this crowd Maybe it's better this way We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
We could have been so good together We could have lived this dance forever But noone's gonna dance with me Please stay
And I'm never gonna dance again guilty feet have got no rhythm though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend and waste the chance that I've been given so I'm never gonna dance again the way I danced with you
(Now that you're gone) Now that you're gone (Now that you're gone) What I did's so wrong that you had to leave me alone
"Head Over Feet" by Alanis Morissette This song was released at the end of the year '99, I believe.
I had no choice but to hear you You stated your case time and again I thought about it
You treat me like I'm a princess I'm not used to liking that You ask how my day was
You've already won me over in spite of me And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault
Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole You're so much braver than I gave you credit for That's not lip service
You've already won me over in spite of me And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault
You are the bearer of unconditional things You held your breath and the door for me Thanks for your patience
You're the best listener that I've ever met You're my best friend Best friend with benefits What took me so long
I've never felt this healthy before I've never wanted something rational I am aware now I am aware now
You've already won me over in spite of me And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault
Smile an ever lasting smile a smile can bring you near to me don't ever let me find you gone 'cause that would bring a tear to me this world has lost its glory let's start a brand new story now my love you think that I don't even mean a single word I say
it's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
talk in ever lasting words and dedicate them all to me and I will give you all my life i'm here if you should call to me you think that I don't even mean a single word I say
it's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
it's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da
this world has lost its glory let's start a brand new story now my love you think that I don't even mean a single word I say
it's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
it's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
it's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away ................................................
Sometimes late at night I lie awake and watch her sleeping She's lost in peaceful dreams So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark And the thought crosses my mind If I never wake up in the morning Would she ever doubt the way I feel About her in my heart
If tomorrow never comes Will she know how much I loved her Did I try in every way to show her every day That she's my only one if my time on earth were through She must face this world without me Is the love I gave her in the past Gonna be enough to last If tomorrow never comes
'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life Who never knew how much I loved them Now I live with the regret That my true feelings for them never were revealed So I made a promise to myself To say each day how much she means to me And avoid that circumstance Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel
So tell that someone that you love Just what you're thinking of If tomorrow never comes
Since you've been gone There's something I wanna say Since you've been gone There's no one taking your place Since you've been gone I've just been foolin' around Since you've been gne This world's been turned upside down Didn't think I'd find a girl that I could not forget Anything we started not so long ago - ain't over yet
Since you've been gone Staring at your photograph And I know it won't be long An' I know you're coming back
You turned me on Since the first time I set eyes on you You turned me on Ooh the things you want me to do Don't get me wrong 'Cos you're not the only girl I've ever had But since you've been gone Girl you know the thought of you's driving me mad All I do is think of you I lie awake - lie awake And no matter how I try this loneliness - you know I can't take
Since you've been gone Staring at your photograph And I know it won't be long An' I know you're coming back
Since you've been gone There's something I wanna say Since you've been gone There's no one to stand in my way Since you've been gone So scared of losing this time Since you've been gone Girl you know that I can't get you out of my mind
Since you've been gone Staring at your photograph And I know that I was wrong An' I know you're coming back Since you've been gone Tried my best to read between the lines If some things are hard to say You better tell me one more time Since you've been gone Since you've been gone

He take the thunder from the mountain, he take the lightning from the sky, He bring the strong man to his begging knee, he make the young girls mama cry.
You got to hidey-hide, you got to jump and run; You got to hidey-hidey-hide, the old man is down the road.
He got the voices speak in riddles, he got the eye as black as coal, He got a suitcase covered with rattlesnake hide, and he stands right in the road.
You got to hidey-hide, you got to jump up run away; You got to hidey-hidey-hide, the old man is down the road.
Aaah!
He make the river call your lover, he make the barking of the hound, Put a shadow cross the window, when the old man comes around.
You got to hidey-hide, you got to jump and run again; You got to hidey-hidey-hide, the old man is down the road. The old man is down the road.
Aaah! You got ta, you got ta, you got ta, hidey-hidey-hide!
