Always liked that but wasn't aware of it's religious nature until fairly recently.
Which just shows how much notice I take of most lyrics.
Sounded dreadful when I ran it just now until I realised it was on the laptop crap speakers, had unplugged the stereo. Silly me.

Nope, AI told me that and that tells you all you need to know about AI


Very happy to know what really was No. 1 on that auspicious day... I do know I was definitely feeling a lot of love around then

It's a still a great track... Brings back huge great memories... Radio 4 did a whole documentary about it the other day - worth a listen

You keep talking about AI, what's artificial insemination to do with your 18th birthday.
