Terrific song from Matt Monro… you don’t get to hear it very often these days!
Seems kind of pertinent…

When I clicked on this song, it really sounded familiar but I’d never heard of the group, so I looked it up and found that Banararama sang a version of this song in the 80s, the one I actually remember, I never missed a Top of the Pops episode in those days. :grin:

Ah!
Top of the Pops, happy days!
I don’t know about you Rose but as a kid I’d sometimes record it on my compact cassette player although I’m probably showing my age.
Mind you, there’s probably some on here that used an entirely different means of recording the show :wink:

Oops! :grimacing:

I actually used to record from the radio onto a cassette, on my stereo, while listening to the UK Top 40 on Capital Radio every Sunday afternoon.
