In case you don’t know the Beautiful South, allow me to introduce them to you. (Whoever you are.) Here is their song, “Song for Whoever.”
Oh Shirley, oh Deborah, oh Julie, oh Jane
I wrote so many songs about you
I forget your name (I forget your name)
Jennifer, Allison, Phillipa, Sue, Deborah, Annabel, too
Jennifer, Allison, Phillipa, Sue, Deborah, Annabel, too
I forget your name
I love them!
My favorite is their video for A Little Time!
Casdok-
Glad to know you like them, too. (And thanks for stopping in!)
merrymishaps-
That is a brilliant video. Thanks for sharing it. I actually had never seen any of their videos before last night, when I was poking around for a song to post.
Love, love, love. I also love finding out I share music taste with bloggers I like to read, but I guess it shouldn’t come as a surprise.
Ooooo, I loved the Beautiful South back in the day just as I loved the Housemartins that came before them. Wasn’t it the Housemartins that titled one of their albums “The People Who Grinned Themselves to Death.” My kind of band.
rima-
Yes, I’m not too surprised we have overlapping taste. You who recently mentioned wearing your Depeche Mode concert t-shirt.
Mad-
I don’t know too much of the Housemartins, but I do like them. It is a great album title.
