Leading on from first records you bought, songs that make you cry, songs that make you dance etc. How about a game of guess the title of a song and the singer, from a single line of lyrics? try not to Google, but guess it, more fun.Whoever is correct first, does the next one.

So, mine is
There she was, just a walkin' down the street.........

wotanuisanceABC123 Mon 16-Nov-15 17:42:27

Yeh!! By Kingston Tio apparently. I always thought it was by Lonnie Donegan but I bought a c/d of 1950,s stuff.

Ana Mon 16-Nov-15 17:32:00

There I took her life
