The last one is on one of the Knights, dunno what volume???...Its a good tune IMO pauly, if you like ya srcreaming biatches, the piano is lush
Just looked on oggs and its just the deconstruction one, im sure we have one with a piccy sleeve cos the piccy sleeve is mint too...
the vocal goes somat like...We crossed the line, we played around, we should ought to (??) and there were times we knew we'd gone to far, but theres no point in looking back, though the memorys still ???? Its just another love attack...Then its got a guy singing on it...and then it goes in to a big ohhhhhh oh oh oh, give it up, ya gotta gota gota give up
God I fooking love this tune...phones:
yeah its track 18 on this mix, the voals sound like cathy dennis and the corus sounds a bit black box with the whailing vocals
tis a beltin tune
I went to CJ's just after my 18th birthday, and it was indeed very shady!

Yeah i used to go Astoria it was kicking to fuk better than hac around jan 90+ for quite a while cant remember name of night but on exiting it it seemed like it was chapeltown.always loads of cars of black lads smoking weed king willy predator style.
One night 4 of us paid king willy to give us a lift back home for a 10er i think.he got a mate to follow in case wé were gona tax him.was a proper gent.had a promising football career with leeds kids(at time hx town wud av been more promising but...) But then he found weed and a car and and a parking spot outside Astoria so football got shelved.
I wud av done same fuk all that running around
