I used to have the single but it was sold when I got rid of my vinyl collection 20 years ago >>

around 1981/2 and probably the only one she released. Young English woman probably art student around 20 ish? She is singing about an experience she had when she was in Japan and she speaks most of the lyrics..."I/we went sightseeing today- I went to the Imperial Palace...I love, I Love..." and later on she sings "Ohh Keito" while some bloke sings "Ahh ahh ahh" in the background

I've just asked dh if he remembered this and he laughed for about ten minutes and then looked at me like this Hmm

a long shot ...does anyone remember???- probably got nowhere in the charts but I think John Peel played it once or twice for the novelty value Grin
