New Wave Outpost Forum

What's your favorite sappy love type song you could never admit to your friends back when that you liked. One of mine would have to be from Prefab Sprout "When Love Breaks Down " . Come on , we're adults now , you can tell [;)]

James Ingram & Patti Austin, "How Do You Keep the Music Playing" from General Hospital. I WAS ROOTIN' FOR YA HOLLY AND SCORPIO!!! [:o)][V]

OK, I'll confess to a few.

Chicago - If You Leave Me Now
Walter Egan - Magnet and Steel
Suzanne Vega - Gypsy
Bob Welch - Sentimental Lady

I ususally hate this kind of stuff, but once in a while a song finds the chinks in my armor.

I'm usually immune to these types of songs - except for these:

Champaign - How 'Bout us
Stevie Wonder - Ribbon in the Sky
Vanessa Williams - Save the Best for Last

Well, since we're also listing non new wave , I'll have to add Boz Scaggs " Love Look What You Done to Me " and Phil Collins " Against All Odds ".

"sniff"- Beth by KISS -"sniff"

Time was on my side for so long, 'til it said "so long" to me.

Try Olive's very cool remake of it. It's totally surprising how good it is in an electro-pop version.
