All Kinds of Everything Remind Me of You…
8th December 2024
This has just popped up on my feed. I remember sending it to you twice. The first was when I was discovering the sheer brilliance of Terry Hall. I sent you The Colourfield’s Thinking of You as well. If you ever do find yourself thinking of me, please know that I’ll be thinking of you too my lovely {} xxx
The second time was when you were with your mum. You’d cooked the most amazing halloumi, tomato, shallots and I think peppers, in what looks like a balsamic sauce. I’m probably wrong. They were beautifully presented on a dish. It looked as if it was straight out of a Mediterranean cook book.
All your dishes looked as if they came out of a cook book. You are a brilliant and amazing MasterChef, and you cook everything to perfection. They always looked superb in your photos, and made my mouth water every single time.
I was struggling that day, and you brightened up my evening with your delicious photo. It was at this moment I discovered Sinead had passed away. We were both in shock and saddened by the news. This is when I resent you All Kinds of Everything… It’s such a beautiful song and video of them both, and wonderful to see Sinead’s sweet smile.
We shared a lot of moments like this. We shared so much music as well. I don’t think there’ll ever be a day, when I don’t hear at least one song that reminds me of you. Yes, all kinds of everything remind me of you every single day. I just wish it wasn’t so painful. The joy I always felt with you has now been replaced by tears.
Amanda Lear’s Follow Me started playing on YouTube after Thinking of You. I remember you sending it to me this year. It was my first listen, and I loved everything about it, especially her voice. It’s quite seductive. I think I told you that I’d happily follow you.
Jimmy Somerville’s Heartbeat is playing now. I’ve sent you this as well. Jimmy is absolutely right, “Love makes no demands”.
All I ever wanted was for you to be your beautiful self. Nothing else and nothing more. This continued to the end when you needed to end our friendship. It was the right thing for you. I never wanted to see you upset, distressed or overwhelmed, and I most definitely didn’t want to be the cause of it.
My heart was with you and it was breaking for you as well. I desperately wanted to help, I really did, but it was too late. I wish I’d known sooner. Despite my heart shattering in that instance, deep down I completely understood.
I just want the best for you, and for you to be happy and to have peace my lovely. Always have done, always will {} xxxx
