Giving it a listen on YouTube, can honestly say I've never heard the song before. I'm more interested in the evidence she's become highly regarded by critics Me and @Clorox Bleachman must read very different music magazines/websites to be quite frank. Anyway your turn to come up with a decent one by the looks of it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,476 Posted February 1, 2020 Ok, here's a savage street cred (what's that?) killing one: This band has been dead longer than Nigel Hawthorne (just). Embarrassingly, I know many of their songs nearly word perfect, the consequences of a teenage fling. This song is their biggest UK charting hit – it didn’t get to number 1 but did chart higher than perhaps their two most famous tunes. It was however a number one in Australia in the mid 90s so cool? Think DI’s theme team, but not planets, that should be affirmation. Anymore clues and we’ll need a coffee machine. PS The Goodies. Right, that should give an answer within 5 mins...

TQR 14,399 Posted February 1, 2020 It's a choon, I'm not even ashamed to say it! Truly Madly Deeply is horsewank though... Right... Rock song that charted pretty well from the 1990's, references someone from long before that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TQR 14,399 Posted February 1, 2020 Warmer, in the sense that it's someone in the title. It's someone older than all the Beach Boys, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TQR 14,399 Posted February 1, 2020 It's worth saying the name in the title is only in the title, the song doesn't mention this person at all. YW has got the time frame correct at least 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
