May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
I had that final instrumental bit stuck in my head as an earworm for days last week…funking hell! Lol I’ve always had a little soft spot for Let There Be Love…it was the last thing of theirs I knew of before 2014’s mega fandom took hold. That’s how ignorant I was! The last thing I…
