The best singer-songwriter ever. To this day, I still think of her poor mum and children and feel my heart tear. I was working an evening shift at Canary Wharf when I heard that she had died, and I sobbed as though she was my own.
Same for me. I knew Kirsty’s Mum who passed last year. Always been haunted by her incredible talent and frequently haunted by her awful passing. Rip Angel
Yes anyone who loved Kirsty is still heartbroken that a lovely kind talented genius has been ripped from us by a murderous millionaire maniac steering his luxury boat in an area designated for divers. The sorrow and loss is still palpable. LEST WE FORGET💔💔💔😪😪😪🇬🇧
I remember rolling down the road on a greyhound through the plains of the midwest headed to vegas from ny depressed as f*ck in the late 90's and playing this over n over... trying to run away from everything, mostly myself... Kristy will never know the impact this song has had on my life♡
I sang this song with another student at the high school talent show and listening to it again brought so many memories back. How time sure goes by fast!
As Long As You Hold Me Lyrics As long as you hold me I'll get by As long as you need me I will try not to die I don't want the shame I don't want the blame I don't want the fame anymore If only they'd tell me, tell me why If I could believe them and their lies But I don't want their name I don't want their pain I won't play their games anymore I always look at the last page of the book How will it end? The suspense robs me of lovers and friends I don't want the shame I don't want the blame I don't want the fame anymore

This song has been underrated over the years; it’s Oct 2020 now and it’s not even on Spotify.
Just checked TIDAL and it's not on there either. BB's version is, though.
September 2022 and i'm still waiting for it to be on spotify
I'm here for Matt and Casey.

unspeakably beautiful... haunting, wonderful, painful, gorgeous... all at the same time, this song.
As Long As You Hold Me Lyrics
As long as you hold me I'll get by
As long as you need me I will try not to die
I don't want the shame
I don't want the blame
I don't want the fame anymore
If only they'd tell me, tell me why
If I could believe them and their lies
But I don't want their name
I don't want their pain
I won't play their games anymore
I always look at the last page of the book
How will it end?
The suspense robs me of lovers and friends
I don't want the shame
I don't want the blame
I don't want the fame anymore
R.I.P. Kirsty MacColl! Thanks for sharing your amazing songs! :(

Billy was right, it is more Kirsty's song than his. A beautiful song.
Love the movie Mad love with
Too beautiful song ! Film ( Mad love ) My favorite movie !
this song doesnt just make me ugly cry, it makes me hideous cry
Mad Love is a deep film that many will not get but i think it embraces real love and not just a game of fools running away.
What a voice. And this song was everything to me.
I just think of Mad Love when I hear this.
i dont know why. but her voice really moves me. its almost like she knew how it would all end right from the start. very sad. her poor children.
as long as you hold me i’ll get by
as long as you need me i will try not to die
i don’t want the shame
i don’t want the blame
i don’t want the fame anymore
if only they’d tell me, tell me why
if i could believe them and their lies
but i don’t want their name
i don’t want their pain
i won’t play their games anymore
i always look at the last page of the book
how will it end?
the suspense robs me of lovers and friends
i don’t want the shame
i don’t want the blame
i don’t want the fame anymore
The best love song

Fuckin A 😉
Scuba/boating accident. 2000. It's in her wiki article.
Why does ITunes hate her? Can't buy this and about half her library on Itunes
Why isn’t this song on Apple Music?!? 😤
yeah me too-try "miss otis regrets" and "soho square" -not a dry eye in the house-lol-donna
Why isn't on Spotify
@sponklong2007 ME TOO I LIVED IT
Billy Bragg wrote this, but realized it was better suited for Maccoll's voice, they were good friends
he did that with a few tracks i understand
me too! .....But in the movie sounded diferent probably bcs it was a live performance =S
@brownybum123 MacColl was killed in a controversial boating incident in Mexico. -Wikipedia
Still such a terrible loss.
I’ll end it.
Little Mark Knopfler flavor there . . .
how did she die
brownybum123 she got hit by a boat
I'm out good luck everyone
