This is my first single I bought

Seemed like the real thing only to find
Mucho mistrust loves gone behind

I wanted to BE Debbie Harry. I still do, but as she was then, not now. I don't think she's aged well.

Dh says melvin and the blue notes He says that simply red may have also covered one of their songs He says we were singing the communard version
your dh is correct, midge. But I can't quite make out his username. So he gets no points and yours are wiped for cheating

Did I have points?

Whooo whooo !
