i recall my uncles talking about the first time they heard elvis and saying nothing before or since moved them as much.

so basically they said you have had it son.

well i don't know if i'm hyper sensitive or what, but a couple a songs stopped me in my tracks.

the 2nd one might surprise you.

i like Scritti Politti but never realised they were formed in Leeds. Always liked his voice, a bit different!

I never get tired of listening to this,it is my all time favourite track and it gives me goose bumps every time that infinite guitar creeps in and the bass just growls along.
