Google trending searches makes the world outside my nostalgia bubble seem pretty terrifying

Why is Megan Markle's baby causing earthquakes in Southern California and how are the Young Farmers and their teen moms, Haille Berry's mermaid, Super Rugby, and a statue of Trump involved

and more importantly, how can I avoid ever finding out

@zensaiyuki oh! Of course. Thompson Twins, Squares and Triangles.

@zensaiyuki I feel like the second phrase should be something like 'a different state of mind' or 'a different point of view'

@zensaiyuki I feel, if the riff goes something like:

D-D-D-E-E-D-(G)
D-D-D-E-E-D-G

where (G) is the octave below middle C

as on

@zensaiyuki It's so frustrating! I hear it in my head but I can't pin it to a song. No, it's not Elton John.

It goes low, then it goes high. Up an octave, I think.

Yeah, I wanna think a 90s hit. Something a little alternative? But classic old rocker-y? I dunno.

It's got like the *vocal rhythm* pattern of Don't Go Breaking My Heart, but, not that at all.

@zensaiyuki Ah! Elton John with Kiki Dee, Don't Go Breaking My Heart, 1976.

At least that's what my brain tells me, but, I don't actually hear that guitar riff. Weird.

@zensaiyuki Ah! Elton John with Kiki Dee, Don't Go Breaking My Heart, 1976.

@zensaiyuki Good guess but not that one, sadly.

Ugh 'Dance Dance Dance' from 1983 is giving me that annoying I-almost-remember-this riff vibe twice:

that chugging intro circa, say 0:7-0:13

and that fake trumpety segue, or the first half of it, at 1:37-1:40

I know I've heard both of them in another song(s) but I can't pick which.

Was another song quoting this, or was this quoting another, or are they both Georgio Moroder tracks, or....

omg 'Limahl' (Christopher Hamill) was British! I always thought he was some Nordic thing like A-ha. How weird! That's a really Bearynstyn moment.

And Beth Andersen!

@starbreaker yes! But if you accumulate TOO MUCH, you become CIO.

You know the rules
And so do I-I-I
You wouldn't get this
From any other guy-y-y-y

Make believe I'm everywhere
Given in the light
Wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Make you understand

We've known each
Other for so lo-o-ong
We both know
What's been going o-o-on

Your heart has been aching
But you're too shy to say
There upon a rainbow
Is the answer that I'm never gonna

Give you up
(ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Never gonna
Let you down
(ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Never gonna
Run around
(ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

@JoYo It's better now!

Written on the pages

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around
And fly a fantasyyyyyy
Dream a dream
And what you see will beeeee
