funny, while zapping on the tv i suddenly heard the first single i ever bought: ‘listen to the radio’ by tom robinson. 20 years old, co-written by peter gabriel and still a nice tune actually! back then i probably did not have a clue that it came from an album called ‘glad to be gay’…
You throw off your coat, pick up the post
And put a coffee on
Lie down on the bed, lay back your head
And smoke a cigarette
Listen to the radio
Atmospherics after dark
Noise and voices from the past
Across the dial from Moscow to Cologne:
Interference in the night
Thousand miles on either side
Stations fading into the unknown
do you remember your first single?
