Gene Gene
I just love him. I fell for him when I was six and my aunts gave me their copy of "The Gene Pitney Story," which I would stare at for hours while listening to "Blue Gene," "The Boss' Daughter," and "Backstage." I met him when I was 20 - he walked up to me after one of his concerts, stuck out his hand, and said "I like your freckles." I was flabbergasted and probably stuttered. He finally walked away. What a gentleman!

"it hurts to be in love", and this 10 year old bought the 45 & has never ceased to adore that record.
and why isn't "mecca" dragged out of the mothballs & used nowadays? so apropos with muslims hogging the headlines. (and it is also a fabulous tune).
Here's Mecca, doll: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_IXw1UOQJ8
Unfortunately, it's only the song. We should make a video! It's so fabulous.
yes, a video should be made, but then there'd be a fatwa against us (not a fat twat) and we'd have to go live with salman.
