May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
One day…let it be me! I can well understand why they want to work with the same, established people. I totally get it. And I’m not looking for a photography gig! Or even a graphics gig. I don’t know what it is I want… An “OK” that my little niche shop is…ok? Which it probably…
I love this version of the song. Love the musicality of it as much as what gets recorded for the Sons And Fascination album version.
I know! But I like sharing my birds when I draw them…just…on the off chance Jim lurks and will see. Silly, I know…
The Action Man boys with their new piece of Simple Minds treasure…as gifted to them via moi :-)) Happy listening, boys!!
Shit just got REAL! Maybe I can make a genuine GO of this thing???! I hope so! I really do! OMG!

Yeah, she’s a spaceface…
I had time on my hands and wanted a bit of fun in the doom and gloom, so… Please, nobody take this seriously. It’s just some fun!
The title track this week! Absolutely adore the German 12″ Mix as well! And will FOREVER love my reply from Jim re: my favourite exact point of the song. Still one of the most awesome things he said it me…even if he was taking the mick a little :-))

And…while we’re on the subject of Europe! I’m voting remain! Imagine the nightmare of travelling to one of those Proms gigs if we Brexit?! (I face the visa thing having an Australian passport anyway…but you Brits don’t!) But that is not my only reason for my remain vote…
