...three cheers go out to Our Patron Saint Marc Almond OBE!
Worship me now
Come here in my chamber
Recline on the velvet
I've been waiting for years
And it's high time you felt it
In the arms of your worshipped master
Arms that can break you
And create you after
Worship me now,
Beat the rush, beat the crowd
You've got to worship me now
We do, Marc. We do.
The New Year's Honours List in full.
How I adore Ms Marc. When I first saw him, my thought was immediately "Oh no, Not ANOTHER One," fearing the photo was the lead in to his obit. And then there was your year end wrap up. Chills, darling, chills.
ReplyDeleteAlso, back on this plane of existence, Marx looks like Nosferatu from some angles. Don't tell him I said that.
He'd appreciate the comparison, I'm sure - he has done songs about serial killers before... Jx
DeleteNow on OBE is nice but Dame Marc Almond does have a certain ring to it.
ReplyDeleteIt'll be on the cards soon, no doubt :-)

I've always held a torch...
ReplyDeleteHAPPY NEW YEAR, Sweetie!!
SXXX
"She is the torch
DeleteAnd she is the theme
She could be a dream but
Oh boy - is she real
Try to avoid her eyes
To avoid her words
They will hit you
With all that you feel"
Happy 2018 to you too, dear!

This put a big grin on my Face
ReplyDeleteHis too, I'd imagine... Jx
DeleteI don't imagine he thought he'd ever end up meeting the Queen when he was recording Sex Dwarf
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine HM The Queen thought so either :-)
Delete"I'm a Rolls Royce
Look its so huge!
It's big and it's gold
With my dumb chauffeur
Looking to procure
Run little doggie
Lure a disco dolly
Run my little sex dwarf"
So different, so very different from the home life of our own dear Queen. Jx
