Didn't realise what I'd started .
The thread's reminded of so many other songs I love > 'Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover' (although she irritates me the way she writhes around on stage), Stephen 'TinTin' Duffy, Japan's cover of 'I Second That Emotion', 'No More I Love You's' (although I prefer the original The Lover Speaks version). It's great when you can find something you love posted by somebody on Youtube, etc. I adore Hozier and I've been able to find other stuff by him online which generally doesn't get featured on the radio.

Debbie Gibson! I loved her so so much when I was 10, I used to daydream about her being my big sister

This is a brilliant thread, am also off to make a playlist.
