Name the song the line is from Part II

I don’t remember leaving the planet for any significant length of time during the 90s, but obviously I did...in 1994. I don't know how else to explain why I drew such a blank on that one, Tony. Sorry.


Cyndee, I think yours is Kentucky Woman. Another great Neil Diamond song.


This one is from 1985:

Some break the rules, and live to count the cost
The insecurity is the thing that won't get lost
And you want her, and she wants you
We want everyone

Good choice on that one, Jim. It’s “No One is to Blame” by Howard Jones I think.

A big hit on both sides of the Atlantic from 1970:

She's really got a magical spell
and it's working so well
that I can't get away

Love Grows - Edison Lighthouse

*********** NEW ***********

Take away the love and the anger,
And a little piece of hope holding us together.

Edited to add - I don't know if this one will fly - In the USA it was very high on the Alternate Rock charts (which must have really amused the singer). From what I have read, those charts are determined by top radio play - which is why I thought that it had a chance. Here is what Wikipedia says about the US Alternate Rock charts -

Alternative Songs (formerly Modern Rock Tracks and Hot Modern Rock Tracks) is a music chart in the United States that has appeared in Billboard magazine since September 10, 1988. It lists the 40 most-played songs on modern rock radio stations, most of which are alternative rock songs. The chart was introduced as a companion to the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and its creation was prompted by the explosion of alternative music on American radio in the late 1980s.

The chart is based solely on radio airplay. As of 2008, approximately 80 radio stations are electronically monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week by Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems.[1] Songs are ranked by a calculation of the total number of spins per week with its "audience impression", which is based upon exact times of airplay and each station's Arbitron listener data.

The singer is English and has a huge discography - but not too much in the USA. This song was 1990.

I'll post the answer soon if it it still looks dead.

Oops. Tony wins.

I didn't see the movie Tony, but I can't imagine how I managed to miss a song sung by those three artists. Oh, well.

OK I guess that one won't fly.
It was Kate Bush singing Love and Anger.

Floor is open. Anyone?

OK, Tony.

From a 1971 album by a well known English artist and his wife, two tracks were selected to be released as singles -- one in the UK and the other in the US.

The single released in the UK became a minor hit, peaking at #39 on the charts. This single, released in the US, did better, climbing to the #1 spot:


I had another look and I had a cup of tea and a butter pie.
(Butter pie?)
(The butter wouldn’t melt, so I put it in the pie)

Jim, I think that was "I'm So Sorry, Uncle Albert," or whatever it was called. Maybe by Sir Paul M?

I don't have another one ready right now, so if I'm right, the floor is open.

Good Morning All,

I really like that “Admiral Halsey” by Wings there. It’s a Classic Rock and Soft Rock staple.

This jazzy tune hit the top ten #10 in 1982:

I'm tryin' to show how much I love you
still believing in romance
You're taking way too many chances
with my love
