Dear James,
A few months ago I was trying to work out the name of this song in my head that went "Emaline I think you're swell and you really give me hell". Couldn't find a sausage. I'd got the lyrics all mixed up into a twisted version of a Ben Folds Five number. Then while looking for number ones of 1969, like you do, I came across this toppermost of the poppermost hit from January that year.
A typical Leeds lad, in 1978 Barry Ryan married Her Highness Tunku (Princess) Miriam binti al-Marhum Sultan Sir Ibrahim, the daughter of the Sultan of Johor. It didn't last.
And here's Ben Folds Five getting an unlikely "Shouts Out" during a CNN finance program.
