Too good to be true

RIP, James Caan

Phew. Another tedious weeek is almost over. Soon be time for a bit of a "boom-boom" bop - and this one fits the bill very nicely!

We all need a little Boystown Gang in our lives...

...so Thank Disco It's Friday!!

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much

At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you

Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak

But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you

I love you, baby
And if it's quite alright, I need you, baby
To warm a lonely night, I love you, baby
Trust in me when I say

Oh, pretty baby
Don't bring me down, I pray, oh pretty baby
Now that I found you, stay
And let me love you, baby
Let me love you

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much

At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you

I love you, baby
And if it's quite alright I need you, baby
To warm a lonely night, I love you, baby
Trust in me when I say

Have a good weekend, dear reader!

There's nothing else to compare

It's Pride Eve, Gay Xmas Eve, dear reader - and we're all very excited indeed! Our outfits are as complete as they're going to be, we've worked out a plan of sorts of how to get our stupid wristbands and get back out to watch some of the parade without being "corralled" into a space at the back designated for "individuals", and we're booking a taxi to get to Our Sal's pub early enough to be able to dress and get our traditional "breakfast" sorted before the shenanigans start...

Ahead of the Big Day, I have to go to the office (but only for half a day), where I will sit counting down the hours no doubt. Meanwhile, to get our celebrations underway...

...something old (from Miss Ellis-Bextor, who will be gracing the main stage in Trafalgar Square at the end of the parade):

Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Murder On The Dancefloor

...something new (the brilliantly odd new video from from sex god Jake Shears):

Jake Shears - Creep City

...something borrowed (the camp-as-Christmas Boystown Gang, who famously made an old Andy Williams number into a poppers-driven gay anthem):

Boystown Gang - Can't Take My Eyes Off You

...and finally, something Golden (from the Patron Saint of Gaydom herself, Our Princess Kylie)!

Kylie Minogue - Golden

Thank Disco it's Gay Pride Friday!

You feel like heaven to touch

And so we hit "Gay Xmas Eve" - for tomorrow it is World Pride!

As is traditional for the "last knockings" of any given week, it's time to get ourselves revved up for a party! To get us in the mood for the biggest party of the year, what better than to stick on the handlebar moustaches and leather in a vain attempt to cover up the fact that we are merely the "Safety Gays" for Miss Jackson Moore, and bop along (badly in this case) to Can't Take My Eyes Off You?

It's the Boystown Gang - Thank Disco It's Friday!

Boystown Gang - Can't Take My Eyes Off You

Camper than a row of tents!

[Thanks to Madam Arcarti - again - for the suggestion.]

"The sight of you makes me weak...

...There are no words I can speak"

Another fantastic piece of cheesy pop to bring a little light into a muggy Monday morning - here's the Boystown Gang with their inimitable interpretation of Can't Take My Eyes Off You:
