This will annoy the Smiths purists but I thimk the Dream Academy version of Please Please... is better than the original.
Elefant, hands down. Looks like I was on my own for the last vote (JeJune).
But you're not this time Miss P - it's Elefant for me too.
I love Kirsty Mc Coll's version of
"you just haven't earned it yet baby"
"But you're not this time Miss P - it's Elefant for me too."
Woohoo! Great minds think alike.
:-)
For the record, I've had that Elefant version in my head all week. Something about a New Year, and reflecting on ten years of marriage, makes the lyrics very relevant to me. Amazing considering they were penned by a single, celibate whippersnapper.
Thanks guys for hanging around my campfire.
We'll stay longer if you bring marshmallows.
"Whippersnapper" - LOL!
Since celebrating my last...*ahem* (we won't go into any actual numbers) birthday, it seems like just about *everyone* is a "whippersnapper" these days!
