Dreamer



Dear James,

Less of your modernism, here's some cheesy bollocks from the 70s. You know where you are with cheesy bollocks. Curious Supertramp video from a Paris gig here. The singer's only purpose appears to be to do a bizarre strip tease and speak a bit of French.

Supertramp were one of Princess Diana's favourite bands. We were in the Coto supermarket round the corner the other day when "Lady in Red" came on on the tannoy and we sang along at the check-out. I told Josefina the old chestnut about how Princess Diana loved the song and thought it was about her. And people think I have a big ego. At a gig or something Princess Diana went up to Chris de Burgh and thanked him for writing the song about her. Little Chris had to point out that actually it was about his wife.
