FOLLOW THE DIVAS
Another live one from our 24/08 Two By Two Brewery show. Let me tell you a little about this song and how it feels to sing it. Don’t get me wrong, I ain’t no Stevie Caruso but do I try my best. This is a song Tommy Morrison and I wrote for Elkie Brooks. It features on her album “Pearls 3” and was also a single in Germany and other parts of Europe (but not the UK)
As I introduced the song I realised my mistake. It was preceded by a song featuring Jen and that was preceded by one featuring Kirsty and now I had to do a fairly demanding song myself. In other words, I had to follow the Divas. When I say “demanding” I mean this: I’m playing very little guitar. Barry is not playing most of the time. And Richard is leaving loads of space too (I think he does it on purpose). So it is a very exposed vocal. As I say, it may not be Caruso but a year ago I couldn’t even have imagined myself doing this let alone singing a full set of my songs. Oh, and by the way: I do get a buzz, when it gets to what I think is one of Tommy’s best lines (rest his soul): “Moving in circles, dealing in dreams”.
So having followed the Divas, I’ll let them follow me. Next, I’ll post Kirsty and Jen’s featured songs. Lots more to come boys and girls. Video Mark Mylchreest
