babyatom's (old) BIG BLOG

babyatom's BIG BLOG was somewhere for me to air some thoughts and tell you about what I'd been up to between March 2003 and January 2006. I'm now here

Pop quiz!

After a run of songs I didn't fancy listening to this morning, a few beauties came on the iPod, one after the other. Ha, it's just like buses!

Song 1:
"I was dressed for success
But success it never comes
And I’m the only one who laughs
At your jokes when they are so bad
And your jokes are always bad
But they’re not as bad as this"
This was the first song that really got me hooked on John Peel's radio show - I used to record each night's show and listen to it at uni the next day.

Song 2:
"Husband don't know what he's done.
Kids don't know what's wrong with mum.
She can't say, they can't see,
Putting it down to another bad day"

No prizes I'm afraid, just my admiration.
