It was a total shock to hear of the passing of Darius. We became good friends; he was a huge talent - we never saw the best of him. One of the most lovely people I have ever worked with. RIP.
Just wanted to say thank you to followers both old and new who have joined me here - I’m thrilled! There’s always room for more though and everyone is welcome! 😊
Recently lots of people have said the Vine Yard should have one… so I decided to take the initiative and get this sorted myself! Who needs to wait twenty years for an official one? 🤣
Thank you to everyone who has shared their thoughts on the ‘Legends of Pop’ Channel 5 Stock Aitken Waterman documentary today! It’s great to see the Positive Reaction it’s been getting! (Anyone spot the additional S/A/W reference in this post?) 😊

Together Forever is Stock Aitken Waterman at our best: it is instant, it was of the moment and I still think today, particularly with the current climate and the way it’s been used in that advert, it is an amazing song.

@BBCTwo
for putting together such a superb programme… it was an amazing trip down memory lane!
Whenever you need somebody was a track first made by O’chi Brown with us in 1985. I wanted
@RickAstley
to record it because although it had been a No 1 on the disco charts in America for O’chi, the song was lost and I knew it was a hit.
