On page 176 of the Oct. issue of _Q_ magazine, there's a contest where
25 examples of opening lines to UK Number 1 records are given. Readers
have to name the songs.
Item 10 is the following:
"10. Out on the wiley windy moors/We'd roll and fall in green/You had
a temper like my jealousy/Too hot, too greedy . . ."
Sound familiar, anyone? :-)
About an hour ago I heard "The Sensual World" on the radio (KITS) again.
That makes it four times in a 24 hour period. I called up the DJ, Rob
Francis, to comment about this.
"Yeah, that's a good song," he said. "But it's a little different
than anything she's put out until now."
"Everytime she comes out with a new song, it's quite differnt than
anything released previously."
"I suppose that's true."
"By the way, do you have the 12" or the 7" single?"
"Actually, I couldn't say. I played a radio cartridge somebody
made a few days ago."
So I told him about the double-grooving on the 12", and he seemed
very interested. I also told him that I managed to hear the whole album,
and that two tracks I am particularly impressed with are "Deeper
Understanding" and "Rocket's Tail".
"Thanks for giving me that information," he said. "I'll be sure to
mention all this stuff when I play the song again tomorrow morning.
Be sure to keep in touch!"
Wow! Oh to be in Love! :-) :-)
