Great opening lines from DEBUT singles

[crasher]

Two swans in front of his eyes
Colored balls in front of his eyes
It's number one for his Kelly's eye
Treble-six right over his eye

A big shot's voice in his ears
Worlds of silence in his ears
All the numbers account for years
Checks the cards through eyes of tears

 

[Stato]

They changed the opening line to "are we really 65 in the charts" after being booted off the tour with the pistols for having a song in the charts if I remember correctly.

Although I may have just made that up.

You didn't make it up. It was on the Peel Session version. Starts around 3:45.

Hey Sucker!
What the hell's got into you?
Hey Sucker!
Now there's nothing you can do.
Well I haven't seen your face around town awhile
So I greeted you with a knowing smile....

l remember one night the kid cut off his right arm
In a fit to save a bit of power
He got fifty thousand watts
In a big acoustic tower

Stars in your eyes,
Little one,
Where do you go to dream,
To a place,
We all know,
The land of make believe

I assume that this was an attempt to smuggle a song that wasn't even their first number one let alone their debut single onto the thread on the basis that you thought that either no one would be have a clue on Bucks Fizz singles, or that it is some kind of joke which you find funny but is lost on the rest of us

 

[Tarpon]

My, my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself

 

[El Presidente]

Foreign tongues in familiar places
Surrender the thrills to the very core

 

[studio150]

My, my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself

7th single

[Hiney]

This makes me wish that Plaistow Patricia was a debut single

Yes.

But his contribution was still very good indeed.
