The first song I remember hearing
I remember my mum singing along to You Belong to Me by Jo Stafford. She’d have the radio on doing the housework and would sing along to the classics from the Great American Songbook, like Bei Mir Bist Du Schön by the Andrew Sisters, which I always thought was called My Beer Mr Shane. Phonetically, it’s quite an intelligent mistake.
The song I secretly like, but tell everyone I hate
I don’t really have guilty pleasures. If I like a song, I can defend it, every time. I’m no stranger to shame, but I wouldn’t liken it to music.
