miss you

ahh, there we are.

back from the brink. and sweden.

this is a toe in the water post. i’ve almost forgotten what to do, its been so long. but before i’m set adrift again in a sea of wrapping paper, roast turkey and mulled ale here’s something i overheard whilst doing a spot of what rather bizarrely feels like last minute christmas shopping even though we’re only 6 days into advent.

anyhoo, courtesy of the dude who looked a bit like jefferson hack djing in the menswear department of my very favourite shop in london; a gallic cover of an anglo-classic (be still my beating heart) the dynamics and their less disco-more reggae version-de-couverture of miss you.

i’m not sure why this captivated me more than the stone-cold surity of the original, though there’s something in this which sounds like it was the source material and jagger/richards just pinched it. but some crackly production values and a jews harp’ll do that to a girl.

merci et c’est bon d’etre de retour.

the dynamics - miss you
