TOTP2 mostly 70's George McRae, Kool & the gang, KC &The Sunshine band and I've just persuaded the bar manager of my local to stock Everton Gin,what's not to like.
I put it down to mature innocence and naivety. The post Robin/Liz break up, plus a child, the switch of lyrics to her adoration for her daughter and smitten love for Buckley. Why some think them lesser works is beyond me, deeper, much more emotional, if you look.
