[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 442534, member: 23"] Not having much to do with podcasts, I'm not sure if it's defying the point to binge, but with them being so short I've already listened to the first ten episodes of the forty. So I've covered Alison leaving Yazoo, signing up with CBS, the [I]Alf[/I] album and its singles, her first tour and Live Aid. The chronological and biographical nature is captivating. I can also tell Alison is a lyricist and bilingual. The very specific words she chooses and the clarity with which she expresses herself extends to conversation as well as her music. Lots of great stuff. Her description of shooting the [I]Alf[/I] album cover gave some really funny imagery. The overwhelming nature of her fame and the pressures from others really comes across (she used the word "trauma" a lot during the earlier part of this ear). It's brilliant to get more insight into how she feels about certain songs, and none more so than [I]Invisible[/I], which she hasn't performed live since 1987. Really interesting that she struggles with it not just because of her the range she was forced to use, but also because Lamont Dozier wrote it in a language (American) with which she doesn't connect.
