Kim Wilde had a number of hits during the course of the 1980s and a few more in the 1990s. She even managed to have a hit entitled Cambodia!
Rocking Around the Christmas Tree I thought her biggest hit with Mel Smith
Just checked her chart entries in the UK. Kim got to Number 2 with Kids in America and You Keep me Hanging On. She, along with Mel Smith, got to Number 3 with that awful cover of that Christmas song. She also got to Number 3 with You Came - one of her songs I cannot remember. Incidentally, her follow up to Kid in America - Chequered Love - got to Number 4. That is a song I have heard sometimes on the radio.

I will take the safeness considering I never heard two of the songs! How long until Kol runs out of 80's songs we know and it's onto the Bon Jovi B-sides

I always thought Kim looked like Kelly McGillis from Top Gun so would mix them up
I think now she does gardening and Cadbury Darkmilk adverts

It wasn't me, but I did briefly think Hungry Eyes had a Hold Me Now kind of vibe to it on my first listen last night

Ah well, I pretty much knew that was coming. After barely scraping past Rounds 2 and 3, my goal was to make it to the halfway point and I managed that so am happy enough.
Three of the four I missed are completely new to me, so best case scenario is that I would have forced a tie if I had got #6 right.
"You Keep Me Hanging On" - I know the Supremes version but not that one.
"Crazy Train" - Lol, I guessed "Girl All the Bad Guys Want" by Bowling for Soup for this one. Which, y'know, is also a song with guitars sung by a man....close enough right?
"Don't Be a Stranger" - such a pretty intro, just listened to the whole song and it's a snoozefest. Kol already gave us the highlights in that clip.
I am kicking myself a little over missing "Would I Lie To You". I knew it sounded familiar but couldn't place a name or even a guess at the artist from it. I think Kol mentioned it was on MTV a lot in the early 90's so I'll use the "it was before my time" and "we only had four channels" excuses. Shame, 'cause I actually quite like that song.....or at least I used to before now.
Anyway thanks again for running @Kol and good luck to everyone left. I'll enjoy unofficially playing along with my fellow Losers in the Lounge.
And @nothing - bring me my cake, please!

Hard luck @Homer J. Fong, come join the mayhem in the LL.
13-11-2022, 10:15 PM
Close one Homer, unlucky
I piggybacked one, I suspect that just snuck me through, very lucky
I was the Hungry Eyes/Hold Me Now error. I had the right tune, just put the wrong lyrics into it

Speaking of piggybacking - @Irish Aris , you were no help to me whatsoever in Round 2. Your lack of knowledge of Smokie has been duly noted.
In fact, all my tokens were gone after Round 3 and not a single one of them did me any good whatsoever. So apologies if anyone tried to assassinate me tonight, I had nothing to leave you.

7 of todays songs were got by everyone. Scores are high. 1 unlucky play must leave though.
Normally at this stage I would present the hall of shame but there no wrong answers today. I will give you all the opportunity to listen to a little Bon Jovi
