    I think that Barbara had the edge. Took a week off when I was 18/19 and went to London to see some shows. Elaine was in Evita, at the end of the show, which was brilliant, Eamon Holmes came on and said, "Elaine Paige, this is your life". I don't expect anyone will remember Pati Boulet (I cannot remember how to spell her name), I saw her in a show at the Talk of the Town.
    And, I'm sure it was on the same trip, Shaking Stevens was amazing playing Elvis.

    Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
    Perfect situations must go wrong
    But this has never yet prevented me
    From hoping for too much for far too long
    Looking back I could have played it differently
    Wond a few more moments, who can tell?
    But it took time to understand the man
    Now at least I know I know him well
    Wasn't it good?
    (Oh so good)
    Wasn't he fine?
    (Oh so fine)
    Isn't it madness he won't be mine
    But in the end he needs a little bit
    More than me, more security
    (He needs his fantasy and freedom)
    I know him so well
    No one in your life is with you constantly
    No one is completely on your side
    And though I move my world to be with him
    Still the gap between us is too wide
    Looking back I could have played it differently
    (Looking back I could have played things some other way)
    Learned about the man before I fell
    (I was just a little careless, maybe)
    But I was ever so much younger then
    Now at least I know I know him well
    Wasn't it good?
    (Oh so good)
    Wasn't he fine?
    (Oh so fine)
    Isn't it madness
    He won't be mine?
    Didn't I know
    How it would go
    If I knew from the start
    Why am I falling apart?
    Wasn't it good
    Wasn't he fine
    Isn't it madness
    He won't be mine?
    But in the end he needs a little bit
    More than me, more security
    (He needs his fantasy and freedom)
    I know him so well
    It took time to understand him
    I know him so well

    Hi Barbara, if Steph is up for it, would you like to record this with her? Remember we spoke at SeeScape, and had a couple of photos taken together after you sang the wee dirty about the railway porter? Regards, Kris.

    Elaine is not good live. Very nasal. Barbara is much better.
