1980s music challenge, part two!

Original post by sweetadeline

Back by popular demand! This part (51-100) is even harder than the first one, I think. Again, the idea is to name the song and artist based on the lyrics below. Good luck!

I'll come back once in a while during the day to update the list with the ones people have guessed right!

ETA: UPDATED LIST BELOW!

51. Someone open up a door and let me out of this place
52. You tell me you love me, why’re you looking away?
53. I often pray before I lay down by your side
54. He’s gotta be strong and he’s gotta be fast
55. I could move off to the left for a while, or I could slide to the right for a while
56. Bring on the new messiah
57. We will both discover how friends turn into lovers
58. Hold your body close to mine
59. You know I told you once tonight that you can always speak your mind
60. You cannot go against nature
61. Droppin’ science like Galileo dropped the orange
62. Though it’s oh so nice to get advice, it’s oh so hard to do
63. They say I’d better stop or I’ll go blind
64. Let’s say a prayer and pray for the other ones
65. I have scaled these city walls
66. To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind
67. You’re the only one I wanna touch
68. Sign says “stay away, fools!”
69. Can’t keep my eyes from the circling skies
70. Let’s play wild like the wildcats do
71. At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
72. Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye
73. White skin in linen, perfume on my wrist
74. What’s a boy in love supposed to do?
75. You leave in the morning with everything you own in a little black case
76. I want to walk in the open wind
77. 18th century brain in a 21st century head
78. Two men out and three men on
79. I’m sorry but I’m just thinking of the right words to say
80. New York, London, Paris, Munich…
81. Can’t get no connection, can’t get through, where are you?
82. Girl, don’t play the fool
83. First he took my heart, then he ran
84. You’re moving in circles won’t you dilate
85. When I’m faced with the knowledge that you just don’t love me
86. Your will is not your own
87. Don’t come back here, yankee
88. I feel the magic between you and I
89. Some feel the heat and decide that they can’t go on
90. Don’t masquerade with the guy in shades, oh no
91. Good luck it finally struck like lightning from the blue
92. There is freedom within, there is freedom without
93. You shoulda been gone, knowing how I made you feel
94. Whistle through your teeth and spit
95. They get so angry, like pouty children
96. You’ve only got my heart on a string, and everything flutters
97. No money man, could win my love
98. You’ve got me spellbound, what else could it be?
99. Don’t wait up for me, I won’t be there
100. Is it all in my mind, cause it seems to hard to believe…

#88 isn't Life is a Highway?



Nope, but maybe 'Life is a Highway' has a similar line in it?

Here's a hint on #88: it's a song from a very popular movie in which 'no one puts baby in a corner.'



Hungry Eyes! Not sure who sings it though.



Yes! And remember: no one puts baby in a corner. No one!

That's the song title! The artist isn't Peabo, though. It's a tough one!

Yes! That's the title. And one of the singers was just mentioned by Slipperboy: Peabo Bryson.

(Now it's stuck in my head, too...)
