Almost there, peeps - another frustrating working week is crawling slowly to its denouement.
It also happens to be the 60th birthday today of the multi-purpose Miss Siedah Garrett, a lady who spent much of her career "20 Feet From Stardom", as backing vocalist for the likes of Queen Madge, Pointer Sisters, Brand New Heavies, Quincy Jones, Donna Summer and Jennifer Hudson. A modicum of chart success beckoned in the mid-80s when she was chosen as duettist with former Tempations vocalist Dennis Edwards on the minor hit Don't Look Any Further [a song that went on to be a massive hit for M People a decade later]; she struck gold with her duet with the then-"King of Pop" Michael Jackson on I Just Can't Stop Loving You, then back into the shadows she went...
...until she was "rediscovered" in 2007 by Brighton's finest, The Freemasons - and aren't we glad they did?
Thank Disco It's Friday!
Adore that song. "Rain down, love"? I hope it doesn't.
Have a good weekend, dear reader!
