London, June 4, 1987 · May 5, 11:54 PM
It’s Camden parkway and you’re so defeated, but so optimistic, so in love with everything… there’s a spring in your step… walking towards your place that has a rooftop view across the railway towards the Zoo that wakes you in the morning…
Hearing this reminds you of that London. Played once a year, especially when cooking spicy food in a New York high rise, windows and doors open to the sun, park blossoming below.
oh the date given..?
Random I suppose, in that great list song (Girl V!!) that appears a third of the way into the disc, the one that everyone says ‘Oh it sounds like Madonna’ although everyone knows that it came first …
Anyway, it’s that feeling:
London Belongs To Me
which is a nicked title in the great tradition of Brit Lit Pop, so
meander like the Thames through
a most enjoyable London record.
