Grey's The New Blonde by Henry Priestman. Johnnie Walker played it a lot on Radio 2 but it wasn't a huge hit...

This is a never published song by Jeff Buckley and Elizabeth Fraser. Heavenly.

Oh my god! That would be on my list too 😀
Love Liz Fraser and the Cocteau's so much & this pairing just finishes me off, considering how it ended for them.
Also love you for posting this (and wish they would release it one day, although I found a decent cover on Spotify) 🤗

So many.. I have quite broad (and at times obscure) taste in music.

But I will say this - a work friend said a few weeks ago “I wish I was a little bit taller” so I said “I wish I was a baller”. Instead of saying “I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her” she and everyone else around us just looked at me blankly, and I was very sad about it..

I’d have joined in.

Different Drum by the Stone Poneys (written by Mike Nesmith).

And, of course, Reno Dakota by The Magnetic Fields. Hence my username 🙂

Linda Ronstadt - what a voice ❤
