Sinister: John Denver/Father Ted
1. IYFS says that "Hilary went to the Catholic Church because she wanted information The vicar, or whatever" It's a beautifully dismissive way of putting it. But as we all know, it's priest/Father. Which brings me to Father Ted (rather weak B&S link, but better than no B&S content). The latest issue of HOT PRESS (Dublin, Ireland) says that Brian Eno will appear as a priest in the final episode of the final series of Ted. It even shows a photo of him in his clerical togs. Quite a sight. 2. <"One of them was "Leaving on a jet-plane" (Don't laugh you bastards!!), don't ask me :who wrote this 'cos I'm hopeless at anything pre '77. Erm, John Denver...also wrote " Annies song" which makes me go all goose< Although John D wrote it, the "popular" version was by Peter, Paul and Mary (some of whom had different real names!). I remember that the B-side of their version had very good lyrics - if I can still remember after 25 years they must have been.
