Tradition Tuesday
Jul. 19th, 2016 01:25 amToday's track is Heart of Stone by Erasure, from their big breakthrough album The Innocents.
Our church had monthly teen dances, and kids were allowed to submit music they wanted on the playlist to be reviewed by Harold, the dance manager. A pretty girl brought in Oh L'Amour, murmuring "Just that one track--some of the other songs might not be appropriate." She had me sold at pretty girl, but not appropriate traipsed in a close second. I went to the local used music place, Happy Trails, and got both Wonderland and The Innocents. I loved them both, and going forward I bought nearly every Erasure album that came out, barring one album that was associated with an ex. This track has not really aged well, and I am less fond of it now, but it's still a good memory.
