Give me more, more, more, more, more
Until I spotted that it was this fabulosa singer's (54th) birthday today, I had actually forgotten all about Carmel!
I loved this song when it was first released twenty-eight years ago, and again when I lived in Plymouth fifteen years ago - one of our traditions on a Sunday lunchtime in the United Services pub was to put on some Latin-fused music to cheer and chill the punters. Here's More More More (with a video directed by none other than Lindsay Anderson):
Carmel and her band also pushed a lot of my buttons back in those confused coming-out days of the 80s with Bad Day:
And now I find that the lady is back on tour after a break of several years - London, Paris, and, er, Stockton-on-Tees! It would be excellent if I could nab a ticket...
Happy birthday, indeed.
