I was eating my breakfast yesterday when, on Melody Radio (my parents choice NOT mine!) a song came on by a group called Loving Spoonfull. Now, the song was pretty insipid cack (it was on Melody, after all) but the singer's voice was very, very similar to Stuart Murdoch's. Anyone else heard of this group/singer?
Yes, as my father is an international lounge singer, and I had to grow up unconciously learning words to songs by Billy Joel, Frank Sinatra, the Righteous Brothers, and so so so so so so so so so many more. Sometimes I sing along in elevators or bookstores without realizing it. When somebody sings the first line of a song and laughs, saying they don't know the rest of the words, i can always finish it. I think that's why I turned to (what was then called) "alternative" music as a pre-teen: in hopes of finding songs that I didn't already know the words to and that dad would never attempt to play on the piano. With my luck, he'll discover B&S too. Ever-exagerrating, Kristen ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
