Fleetwood - twinned with Royston Vasey
Hello, my love
I heard a kiss from you
Red magic satin playing near, too

All through the morning rain
I gaze - the sun doesn't shine -
Rainbows and waterfalls run through my mind

In the garden - I see west
Purple shower, bells and tea
Orange birds and river cousins dressed in green

Pretty music I hear - so happy
And loud - blue flower echo
From a cherry cloud

Feel sunshine sparkle pink and blue
Playgrounds will laugh
if you try to ask
Is it cool?, is it cool?

If you arrive and don't see me
I'm going to be with my baby
I am free - flying in her arms, over the sea

Stained window, yellow candy screen
See speakers of kite - with velvet roses diggin' freedom flight

A present from you - Strawberry letter 22
The music plays, I sit in for a few

Ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...

A present from you - Strawberry letter 22
The music plays, I sit in for a few

Ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...

DJ Barrie Jay.....you hero, my wife has this on vinyl and she wont let me near it. I LOVE some of the real 70's.

The mix to play is Tonite Mix, forget the rest. I have this on a DMM test pressing and I absolutely love it.

Really brings out just how amazing those lyrics are in that version. The arrangement of the original is a masterclass in electro funk but it's so damn groovy you maybe don't appreciate just how good the words and the vocal are. Seminal record.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: Deffo have to agree with u on that
