Hi Criz!

Unfortunately, most of the ones I knew are already taken. There's one left though:

Well I know your love is rough
And the roads you take are tough
But I just can't get enough
......Chequered Love  by Kim Wilde

I'm sure I've seen #12 around somewhere on another quiz. :-\\..Can't think of the song, though :-[

This is a great quiz - but REALLY hard (in a good way, though! I like stuff that makes me think). :)

#12 has been nagging it me for days, I know I've heard it. Is it "Keep Feeling Fascination" from the Human League?

Subject: Re: Synth Pop Quiz (1 LEFT) (Extra lyrics added) (NO LIMIT!!!)

Written By: Criz on 09/25/05 at 11:08 am

I'm glad it makes you think :)

It's not the Human League I'm afraid - Gambo had the correct answer.

Keep trying for the final one though!!
