Before you brush your teeth later, what 80’s song you gonna sing into your toothbrush while pretending it’s a microphone?

Do you sing?  I like the song a lot.  This post was edited by . at January 26, 2019 6:34 PM MST

Yeah, I can sing OK. Not like The Dream Academy, though.

Boy, I really love this song and group. Oh,  I already said that, I guess! Ha!
:)

I just listened :) I didn’t think I knew it at first but I recognize a part of the song...maybe the chorus was in commercial or something. I really like the whole song. I’m gonna buy it:). Good choice, thanks Welby :)

Thanks, Jaimie. The song is lovely to me, yes.
:)

And the group Jakaranda sampled the actual Dream Academy recording for their kick-a** song that includes the chorus. Jakaranda's song is "Never Let You Go" and it was used in the Lindsey Lohan movie "The Parent Trap."
Check this out, too, if you get a chance. I love it, too. I like that Jakaranda made a totally new song out of the chorus and used The Dream Academy's recording.
:)

Yes!!! That’s exactly were I knew that part of the song from! Thanks, that was driving me nutz lol. I did just buy the song you originally posted. Thanks introduce it to me. 

you're very welcome, jaime!
sorry, typos

I' mglad I helepd out to figure out where you knew the song
:)

:)

I came across your question here, again, by chance. I'm happy you liked The Dream Academy's "Life in a Northern Town." I thought I'd add another song by them that I like (though I truly like everything I've ever heard by them). Maybe you might like this one, too, if you get a chance to listen.
I find it lovely.

"Indian Summer"

Nice :) I like the northern town song more, but this one is good too. Thanks, Welby :) 

You're welcome, Jaimie.
Yeah, "Life in a Northern Town" is in a class all by itself for me. I can say I truly adore that song.
:)

Like I said, I like everything I've heard from The Dream Academy, yet, "Life in a Northern Town" is over-the-top phenomenal for me. I've yet to ever tire of listening to it. This post was edited by WelbyQuentin at May 11, 2019 5:58 PM MDT

I think I told you earlier in this thread( hard to remember cos it’s an older one) I end up buying that song on iTunes. I love it :)

Yup -- I love it, too.
Yes, I remember you told me you bought the song after listening.
:)
You recently shared that you bought another song I had posted on the site but I can't remember at the moment what that other one was.
:)

I can’t remember what it was either...I was just trying to go through all my iTunes Cos I’m sure if I saw it I would remember, but I have so many songs I gave up lol. 

That's OK, ha!
:)

I know was a song by a woman and was an older song. 

"Ode To Billie Joe" by Bobbie Gentry?

" . . . Billie Joe McGallister jumped off the Tallhatchie Bridge" is part of the quasi-chorus

Yes!!! That’s it! I’m gonna move it in My  music library now that I know the name, so I can find it now:)

Excellent!
I just told someone the other day that that song, if I had to choose, would be my choice for the "Best Song I've Ever Heard." Like Mary Poppins, it's 'practically perfect in every way to me.'
:)

Yeah I really like that one :) I’m gonna have to make an answermug playlist in my library soon for all the music I’ve been introduced to here :)

You probably are addressing Cara's "Flashdance" song -- great song!

I was just hoping maybe you might be addressing it for "Life in a Northern Town."
:) Ha!
:)

No importance, though, obviously.
