BREAKING News for Kirsty MacColl's Desperate Character!!!
The video says it all!
It's been a long time coming!
Naturally, I will remove Desperate Character from my channel after the reissue, but until then, soak it up and keep ears to the ground!
Thanks very much to everyone who's listened to the tracks, posted them as links, commented, etc.It made the whole thing worthwhile.
God bless Kirsty!

This one's for a friend of mine who loved this cover (The Clash being the original, as if you needed telling) but couldn't find it anywhere. It's been a while since my last Kirsty track but there's very little left to post and what is left I don't have! Rumour has it Union Square Music are releasing a 2-disc compilation with unheard bits, so keep your ears to the ground! This is from a live sho...

Kirsty covered this Isley Brothers song in 2000 for the BBC with the Union Chapel Gospel Choir for a New Year's broadcast. Kirsty was ill at the time but, bah, it hardly shows. Unfortunately I don't have the video footage, but here's the audio. Enjoy!

タモリさん「あっイッちゃった…///」 安齋さん「汚えw」
Wow never heard this version, only was aware of Christie Allen’s version
Great song!
その場でドピュー
Your name froze on the winter air An empty bench in Soho Square Forgotten now I turn away Just save me for a rainy day But don't be sorry I don't want to hear it baby My feet froze in the winter chill I knew I'd probably get ill But I was praying we could fill An empty bench and still You're so sorry But I don't want your pity baby It's all yours now please don't tease The pigeons shiver in the naked trees And I'll do anything but Please don't hurt me Just kiss me quick 'Cause it's my birthday And I feel so small I don't know why But no I'm not too old to cry An empty bench in Soho Square If you'd have come you'd have found me there But you never did 'cause you don't care And I'm so sorry baby I don't mind loneliness too much But when I met you I was touched And that was good enough for me But do we always have to be sorry Why can't we just be happy baby? One day you'll be waiting there No empty bench in Soho Square And we'll dance around like we don't care And I'll be much too old to cry And you'll kiss me quick in case I die Before my birthday One day you'll be waving there No empty bench in Soho Square No I don't know the reason why I'll love you till the day I die But one day you'll be waiting there Come summertime in Soho Square And I'll be painting stars up in the sky Before I get too old to cry Before my birthday I hope I see those pigeons fly Before my birthday In Soho Square on my birthday
This songs lyrics struck me as a vignette of the " after the fall" conversation between Satan and Eve about " what now"? It still sounds that way today.
SHOULD HABE BEEN A SINGLE !
I wish this version was on Spotify 😢
I have seen her bench in soho Square So sad
I’ll end it.
Im still waiting there😢 Miss you every day K Born 7 days after me 1959
Little sister❤
A beautiful song about the shadow side and dark archetypes which are a part of who we are inside!
We loved Kirsty and her music every song she wrote was from her beautiful soul and what a tremendous talent the world is a colder place now that she is not with us.She never got the recognition that she deserved one of the greatest songwriters ever and vocalist.We love ❤️ and miss you terribly.
Dave or Fred Berk wrote this and Johnny Moped recorded it way before this version.
Timeless classic.
God bless you Kirsty ... Always a sad anniversary this ... and this song gets me the most .😢
23 years ago today. RIP Kirsty, you're still missed by so many 😢❤
I am listening to Kirsty today. The 23rd anniversary of her death. I drink in remembrance and have lit a Christmas candle. All my thoughts are of Kirsty today and of all the happiness and entertainment she gave me and many others.THANK YOU KIRSTY. REST IN PEACE LOVED ONE❤❤❤😢😢😢😢
Kirsty, oh Kirsty
Great sound
Love Bette and the rest of the Deaf School crew. Loved all of Bette's singles and the album 'Rythm breaks the ice' her version of Prince's When you were mine' fabtastic and introduced me to Prince's incredible talent. Does anybody know if Bette's album is available anywhere on CD?
Thank you for uploading.
Did this also not get issued due to the Stiff UK record presser strike like 'They Don't Know' suffered? Anybody answer that?
I saw on her official site that she was dropped by Stiff just before the record was due to be released ie October 1979. Song was co written by Pete Briquette and Simon Crowe of The Boomtown Rats and featured Rat Johnnie Fingers on piano .
For you little sister
Back in 1988 my late girlfriend turned me on this beautiful song. I lost her to cancer, this will always be her song❤🎶
This is from 1991...
Great version and with Lee Thompson on saxophone 🎷
tiananmen masacre if you dk
このバンドも日本人コメントで日本語の空耳コメントが発生してるとは夢にも思ってないだろう
You can hear the Boomtown Rats in this circa 1980
A very hypnotic song. Pleasantly hypnotic. "Just once, Little Sister... "
I've got this album. Had it since new in 1981. Thanks to WHFS, I heard it and bought it immediately. Almost mint condition.
Brilliant!!
It’s a testament to how tremendous Kirsty was that we are all missing her years later
When we most need her "New England" RIP Legend 😘
I don't want...❤
D +
unspeakably beautiful... haunting, wonderful, painful, gorgeous... all at the same time, this song.
Maybe it’s too pop for 80s but for now it’s too gold
Quand j'ai entendu cette chanson pour la première fois, je l'ai beaucoup aimée, mais il y a quelque chose qui me fait pleurer et je ne sais pas pourquoi, magnifique.
Kirsty was fantastic. What a voice, what a talent.
She just made it okay for Goths to wear yellow 😐
What a gorgeous song by such a gorgeous talented woman. Go put some flowers by her bench in Soho Square. ❤❤❤❤❤
Beautiful song....I visited the bench in Soho square with her name plaque...my Dad was brought up in Soho too.. he passed in December...
How is this not on Spotify, she was amazing
Thank you so much for sharing this gem!
I remember rolling down the road on a greyhound through the plains of the midwest headed to vegas from ny depressed as f*ck in the late 90's and playing this over n over... trying to run away from everything, mostly myself... Kristy will never know the impact this song has had on my life♡
Thats fabulous. Keep happy my friend❤
Dag Juhlin's groovy Sunday night radio hang brought me here. Never woulda heard this gem if hadn't played there; t/y man.
This song always reminds me of my sweet little sister that has been there for for me through thick and thin. I love you so much, Ruth! 💕
great music but never understood why Bragg got taken in by new labour..same with geldof
Well the MSM went that way, so he had to follow
