O/T Friday night is music night

[Brin]

Well worth a listen Brin. Not quite in Dusty's league but close

Lincs, totally agree not in the same league as Dusty. However, it was indeed a good rendition and sweetly sung and brave of her to take on a truly classic song. Some folk say there's only one Whitney and those that have tried to sing her songs have failed miserably, again I agree on that. It's as though some singers just fit the song hand in glove.

RU66/Pup, her's one that will throw you both ...... Funnily enough I think one of you will know this.

You got me on this one Brin. Too deep cut for me!

pup have I missed something? All I got was 2.20 minutes of an intro then nothing else?

Twas a bit tongue in cheek Brin. It's the b side to Hay Numan's Cars, an instrumental called Asylum which always struck me as terrifying with dooming piano and haunting string synth.

When I was a kid we'd go to Reighton Sands holiday village near Filey and they'd have a cafe fish bar near the entrance which had a juke box. On it they'd always have the Cars single. I'd used to sit and wait till it good busy with lots of families and kids, nice sunny days. Then I'd put Asylum on and watch sniggering like a little Butthead as the conversation would slowly stop and kids would return to parents. "WHAT THE **** IS THIS??!"

After a while the owner found out who was putting it on and barred me. Great fun whilst it lasted.

Put it on again, loud, through headphones. You'll see what I mean.

LolM for me it has to be this track by Elkie. She is now 80 years of age but still tours. She always visits the Sc.unthorpe area each year as my friends book to see her each year and apparently she can still hit the notes.
