Kirsty MacColl
1959 - 2000
TWELVE years ago today, we lost a legend.
Kirsty's music lives on in all its glory, with the cruel irony that her last album, Tropical Brainstorm, is widely regarded as her best.
I found it impossible to pick a 'best of' or 'top 10' so I've chosen a random selection of her songs to share.
Watch, listen and remember the good times.

I sat beside the telephone
Waiting for someone to pull me through
When at last it didn't ring I knew it wasn't you" - New England
