Hi people, Being as there are a 'few my first time' stories going around I thought I'd share mine.......sounds stoopid but it's actually very true..... The week before Wuthering Heights was released, Radio 1 was promoting it, as they do, and the very first time I heard it was in the recovery room of a dentist, no really.....having just had several teeth out and being somewhat the worse for wear thanks to the influence of the gas, I was quite calmed by the sound of this ethereal, angelic sound emanating from the radio.....made all the more ethereal by my stunning lack of coherence at the time....... I assumed it was one of those brilliant songs you hear in your dreams and wish you could write down 'cos you just know it'd make a million.......then forget instantly. Well this one didn't let go and a week later Radio Luxembourg had it as their 'PowerPlay' . Every Hour on the Hour..... I was gutted because it wasn't 'my song', but thrilled that it really was every bit as good as I remember it! sigh........ This of course sparked a love which has stretched from that moment to this......with the exception of 'Babooshka', of course....hehehheheh! .......and no I DON'T mean that Kate reminds me of a trip to the dentist.......although my family would claim otherwise..... ;-) Take Care Will Yum!
