I somehow found a free corner (not easy in a round tower) among the capacity attendance
Fans of the Jools Holland show might remember – they could hardly forget – O’Sullivan’s 2009 performance of the same song in a tiny back number and red stilettos. When the TV series marked its 25th anniversary in 2017, that was named as one of the 25 greatest hits and included in an anniversary celebration at the Royal Albert Hall.
Joycenights will be an annual feature. In the meantime, Andrew Basquille tells me the tower will also host an Ivy Day commemoration on October 6th, when he and others mark the latest anniversary of Charles Stewart Parnell’s death with a rehearsed reading, in costume, of Ivy Day in the Committee Room.
It’s an attractive theory. Unfortunately, like so many folk etymologies, it has not a shred of evidence to support it. As Terry explains: “Poets split clauses over the ends/beginnings of lines all the time, but songwriters don’t, and singers don’t like the effect of it.”
