Songs I Wish I'd Written: Part Deux
Continuing the world famous series: Songs I'd Wish I'd Written, it's time for part deux. Deux means 'two' in French. Seriously, it may be one of the best songs of all time: Stevie Nicks - Edge Of Seventeen. I mean, she makes dove sounds and nobody bats an eyelid. You have to be at Stevie Nicks/Kate Bush levels of amaze to be able to pull off animal sounds.
Fun fact: the main guitar riff is apparently (read: clearly and obviously) 'inspired by' The Police's Bring On the Night. If we're throwing songwriting credits around, I wouldn't have minded writing that one too. Cheers, nice one.
I've linked to that one too, for a Brucie Bonus. You're welcome.
Songs I Wish I'd Written: Part I
Pretty simple concept really: these are songs I wish I had written. This is the first. Siouxsie & The Banshees: Spellbound. I mean, come on.
There will be more. They will be most excellent works of art.
