One of Manchester's finest - Mr Ashcroft is from Wigan - which is close enough I grant you but don't let any Wigantonians hear you saying that I prefer earlier Verve myself - this was a majestic way to go out the first time they split up I can't stay away from this song recently - superb album (she's the girl who sang the track on the google advert) My most magic gig related night was one Friday evening in Sheffield when Bernard and Brett (as The Tears) played this for the very last time on the same stage together - quite possibly my favourite song ever I'm a manc myself, and the best things to come out out of Manchester are Ian Curtis, ( New Order) Morrissey ( Smiths ) and myself Loving the suede track - this is a classic of theirs -

I was slightly starstruck the first few times it would be fair to say... I'm not going to be a smart arse and point out that Curtis was the singer of Joy Division not New Order (he was dead before they renamed themselves) - oh wait I am lol. Curtis was from Macclesfield too - actually if I'd been from Macclesfield maybe I'd have been that miserable I always (whisper it as its heresy to some) preferred New Order to Joy Division - Bernard Sumner might not have been able to sing really but they were more charming when they lost some of the gloom. I'm also a Marr man over Morrissey - yes the man is a genius but the riff on How Soon is Now is all Johnny...

You can not mention Manchester, and not show the best man - so here he is- I always get front row at gigs as I am small, last time I saw him I got three broken ribs crushed against the front barrier- was it woth it- hell yes-

Suede reformed this year - in perhaps more shocking news the resulting album was actually excellent - better than anything they'd done since Coming Up in fact
Their best album was Dog Man Star - my other favourite Suede track

Why did what happened to himhappen, well, we all have our theories, the trip to America about to happen did that have something to do with it who knows? Johnny Marr is fantastic, but Mr Morrissey

dreamylittledream where abouts on that side of the pennines are you from?? I was born in a Manc Hospital and lived on cheetham hill, but then moved to Birkenhead to the police houses. (Daughter of police inspectors.) God that must be why I like police accommodation so much and spend so many nights there bed and breakfast

(Daughter of police inspectors.) God that must be why I like police accommodation so much and spend so many nights there bed and breakfast I was born in St Marys as my parents lived in Withington at the time but they moved to South Manchester - Stockport - before I was 3 and I grew up there. They city is a very different place from what is was when I grew up there now (the bomb ironically helped a lot) but I left it when I was 18 (for the bright lights of Sheffield of all places) and have only made fleeting return visits in the intervening 16 years...
