I suppose we need Curly to issue the final judgement, really.

You would like him very much. Heart of Saturday Night, Rosie, Ol' 55, Jersey Girl. Tremendous stuff from old Tom there.Quote:

Didn't she also do that one about talking in your sleep? She did. Here it is. Prepare to cry yourself sick:Quote:

I've been listenin' to your dreams and gettin' very low
Wondering what I can do
Maybe I'm being foolish
'Cause I haven't heard you mention anybody's name at all
How I wish I could be sure it's me that turns you on
Each time you close your eyes
I've heard it said that dreamers never lie
You've been talkin' in your sleep
Sleepin' in your dreams
Wish some sweet lover
Holdin' on so tight loving her the way
You used to love me
Talkin' in your sleep with lovin' on your mind
:cry:
Yes. We can obviously agree about that. It also has the benefit of being short. Too much time in Van's company can become irksome in my experience.Quote:

Let's be clear. You refuse to accept that All Mod Cons is simply brilliant so all your views and comments regarding music are deemed null and void.Quote:

Oh, I'm not going to even acknowledge that you've been absent. I'm just going to seamlessly accept you back into the fold like you've never been away. I'm not one for these gratuitous displays of affection.Quote:

Its not a bad album, far from it. Well short of genius though. I would put it in the 'decent' category.Quote:
