I’ve had decent jobs, wonderful relationships, sporting achievement, Bought houses, put big websites live, raised kids, installed a velux window that didn’t fall out.
But, if I’m lucky to have the chance, learning how to sing this song is what I’ll remember in my final moments
My greatest achievement in life, in LIFE, is learning ‘The Lone Ranger’ from Quantum Jump from a similar mag.

For example, I discovered R.E.M. through ‘Document’ and went from there. Subsequently, I don’t ‘get’ ‘Fables…’ in the same way, but I note ‘Fables’ is VERY popular in #5albums80sFinal
So …. 1/2
