10 Lines #9 - Eighties earworm edition

[khaosworks]

Once again.

Ten first lines from my iTunes playlist right now. Guess the songs. Bonus points for guessing the artist and album, or guessing the version that I have (if it's been covered), where applicable. Play fair now, no Googling.

Today's theme: the Eighties. Warning: if you remember this decade, earworms may result. To be honest, these are not that difficult... I just wanted to infect people with earworms.

1) "Remember that piano, so delightful, unusual."

2) "Moving on the floor now, babe, you're a bird of paradise."

3) "I don't wanna hear about it anymore."

4) "Josie's on a vacation far away."

5) "You should have seen by the look in my eyes, baby, there was something missing."

6) "Hast du etwas zeit für mich..."

7) "You know I never — I never seen you look so good."

8) "It's early morning, the sun comes out."

9) "I found a picture of you - Oh..."

10) "Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while."

I can't remember the artist to #4, but I know that was... dang. I think it was called "I Don't Wanna Lose Your Love Tonight"?

#5 was called I'm Gonna Keep On Loving You, I think.

#10, at least, I know straight off. That's Alphaville's "Forever Young".

No earworms here, I'm afraid. I've been stuck with "Go Summon Up The Dead Ones" in my head for three days and none of those are capable of trumping it. I'm going to have to listen to "Come On Eileen" for that to happen.

2) Duran Duran, "Rio" (from Rio, I think)
6) Nena, "99 Luftballoons"

Dammit, I *know* 4 and I'm going to kick myself for not getting it.

Aagh! I can't believe I didn't recognize that one..."TDTM" is one of my fave hair-metal rave-ups from that period.

2) Duran Duran, "Rio"
4) The Outfield, "I Don't Want To Lose Your Love Tonight"
7) Chris DeBurgh, "Lady In Red"

Interesting choice for #7, but "Lady in Red" actually starts, "I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight..."
