Putting #Raintown album on by #DeaconBlue on shuffle doesnβt work. The songs are in an order for a reason.
An extra #onthisday this week. 35 years ago #onthisday #DeaconBlue released the single, Chocolate Girl from the album Raintown. I was shocked to find out today that it didn't even chart in the UK top 40!!

One extra unexpected #Succession finale delight - the singing of a song by #RobertBurns #GreenGrowTheRashesO. A song usually associated with being in praise of womenπ

How about a then and now video of #DeaconBlue ? First one was Loaded (1987) I just love the video that goes with the song. I donβt even think Ricky and Lorraine were married/in a relationship at this point. Just a care free video.
2nd video was from 2020 and a live version of probably their most well known song, Dignity.
#OnThisDay 36 years ago, my favourite band, Deacon Blue released their debut album, RainTown. Honestly, please give the full album a listen from the link. To this day, I listen to a lot. It's so good.

#33Thirds is in a Scottish section, as was I in the early 90s.
#DeaconBlue were purveyors of quality soft rock. "Fellow Hoodlums" was their 1991 album, I found it the most difficult LP to get into of their 80s-90s heyday, but rewarding for that effort.
"Your swaying arms" was the lead single, a yearning for an absent lover.
In the absence of an official video, here's a #TOTP performance from good old Top of the Pops.
