Come on, say it with me…

BOOYAH!

In Mike Baldwin and soul, in part and in whole.

Oh yeah. Not sure how we drifted onto this topic, but there's already a link between The Smiths and Mike Baldwin actor Johnny Briggs thanks to The Leather Boys film used in the video for Girlfriend in a Coma. Dude really should have been a Smiths cover star!

Wow she was a very, ah... gifted woman

thought i was looking at zena warrior princess for a moment there,very arabian nights as well.

 

[Orange Crush]

I'm disappointed it's not Dana (Dana Rosemary Scallon)
who won the 1970 Eurovision Song Contest with "All Kinds of Everything". It'll have to do, though.

I know her more for her hymn Our Lady of Knock.

[Sister I'm a Poet]

Of course she was the original singer of this beautiful song. It kind of summarises how I feel about Morrissey, "I don't know how to love him/I don't know why he moves me..."

VERY COOL

That album cover for Dizzy Heights is raunchy

All covers in the new album, I think? Wonder what fist she'll make of STDIB, and why she chose it. Great song

[The Art Guy]

Cover art done by the same team that did California Son I see.

It's not. Credits to follow

 

[The Wild Turkey]

Dana did a nice job with the Bob song.

I prefer Morrissey’s rendition of it. That was an interesting listen though.

 

[The Wild Turkey]

On the radio last night:

Yep, this is one of the best Moz covers.
Dana just did somethin' of her own with it.
That Moz designed sleeve sounds kinda nice too.

Thanks! AWESOME

The choice of harpsichord makes the song really jump! Made me think of Jobriath’s first album, and love her delivery, plus the outro is so much better than Morrissey’s.
Glad it was chosen as the single! Very cool.
