Second In The Queue

I recently downloaded some Jason Dononvan tracks from his PWL back-catalogue on itunes. It's all very exciting and there is some good stuff on there, although the overall opinion is that its not quite as good as Kylie's.

Imagine the scene. It's January 1990 and Kylie and Jason rock up to the PWL studio's to get their new songs. Kylie manages to tear herself away from Michael Hutchence and is first in the queue. Stock, Lock and Barrel proudly present her with 'Better The Devil You Know'. She's delighted. It's different from her previous outings. A bit more 'down with the kids' and a bloody good pop song to boot. Kylie leaves work with a smile. She knows her career is in a good place and Michael is waiting in bed for her.

Jason Donovan turns up a bit later. He overslept apparently. Not to worry though because Stocky, Atkins Diet and Watershead still have a song up their sleeve for him. His first reaction is one of relief because it's not a cover version. Then he hears 'Hang On To Your Love'. Jason leaves work in tears. The dumper is just around the corner and there is no one waiting in bed for him.

Poor Jase. He could see what Sinitta meant now. Kylie does get all the best songs. Well not quite if these three words are anything to go by - 'Word Is Out'.

Nice Mullet!
