Holding Back the Years: an 80s Music Tribute (Friday Frivolity)

One of our favorite shows used to be “Whose Line is It Anyway?” and I loved when they would improvise a scene using song titles. So for our Friday Frivolity host theme of 80s music I wrote the following scene a la Whose Line.

Setting: a group of friends at a night club in Funkytown.

Cast:

  • Jack & Diane, two American kids growing up in the heartland
  • Mickey, he’s so fine I lost my mind
  • Sara, storms are brewin’ in her eyes
  • Amanda, gonna take you by surprise
  • Billie Jean, more like a beauty queen from a movie scene

Sara: I Love Rock n’ Roll.  

Mickey: It’s Still Rock and Roll to Me  

Amanda: Shout! Karma Chameleon!

Jack and Dianne: Two Hearts. Crazy Little Thing Called Love. Glory of Love.  Together Forever.  

Billy Jean: I Want to Know What Love Is

 

Mickey: Who’s That Girl.  She Drives Me Crazy

Amanda: Who Can It Be Now?

Sara: Jessie’s Girl

Mickey: Oh Sheila! Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car!  Need You Tonight

[Mickey chases after woman in the crowd]

Billie Jean: Every Rose Has Its Thorn

 

Jack:  Baby, Come To Me. I Just Can’t Stop Loving You

Dianne:  Anything For You. Every Breath You Take

[Mickey returns]

Mickey: Maneater! Where Do Broken Hearts Go?

Billy Jean: Owner of a Lonely Heart  

Sara:  Another One Bites the Dust

Amanda: Don’t Worry Be Happy  

Sara: Let’s Dance!  Let’s Go Crazy! Flashdance . . . What A Feeling

Amanda: Rock me Amadeus!    

Mickey:  Venus! Here I Go Again. Come On Eileen.  Don’t You Want Me?  

[Mickey chases after another woman]

Sara: Time After Time

Amanda:  Let’s Hear It For the Boy  

Sara: With or Without You?

Billie Jean: I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For

[Sara and Amanda go out on the dance floor]

 

Jack: Endless Love

Dianne: Saving All My Love For You  

Jack:  Greatest Love of All

Dianne: Heaven Is a Place On Earth

Jack: The Way You Make Me Fee.  

Dianne: Forever Your Girl. Kiss

Billy Jean:  You Give Love a Bad Name. 

Jack: Beat It

Billie Jean: On My Own. Red Red Wine.

[Billie Jean heads to the bar]

Jack: Careless Whisper. I Think We’re Alone Now 

Dianne: Baby, I Love Your Way

Jack:  Invisible Touch

Dianne: Take My Breath Away

Jack: Can’t Fight This Feeling

Dianne: Do That To Me One More Time

Jack: Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now

Dianne: Satisfied

       

Mickey: The Flame!

Sara: St.Elmo’s Fire!

Amanda: Chariots of Fire!

Billie Jean: Eternal Flame!

Jack and Dianne: We Didn’t Start The Fire  

Billie Jean: Could’ve Been

Sara: Blame It On the Rain

Amanda: I Love A Rainy Night

Jack and Dianne: Hard to Say I’m Sorry

Billie Jean: Escape (The Pina Colada Song)!

Mickey:  One More Try. Hello! Got My Mind Set on You. Baby Don’t Forget My Number. Call Me.  [chases after a female firefighter]   

Sara: Addicted to Love

Billie Jean: Out of Touch  

Amanda: Sussudio

Now on to the link-up! 😀
Friday Frivolity LINKY PARTY - the blog link-up for all things Fun, Funny, Happy, and Hopeful!

 

For those that are not on our mailing list, Sarah will be taking some maternity leave from the weekly party. She will be linking up and visiting and hopes to rejoin us as host when she is up for it.  In the meantime, Amethyst is joining us as a permanent host. The four of us will still be visiting you all and sharing your awesome posts.





Featured Post from Last Week:

In a fun twist, since we now have multiple hosts and co-hosts we will also have multiple FEATURES…. but you will have to go check out the other blogs to see if you were featured there! 😉
Do you want to keep your family’s focus on the Resurrection this Easter? See if one of these Christ-focused Easter traditions will help.
I chose this post from Of the Hearth for some Christ-Focused Easter Activities. We did a Lenten Calendar similar to the one she mentions last year full of activities focusing on prayer, fasting and almsgiving. And I really like the use of bulbs to explain new life.

    Thanks so much for featuring my post on Christ-focused Easter traditions! I love the bulb idea, too, but we didn’t have any, so we just planted seeds. 🙂
