Inspired by listening to Brighter’s “Around The World In Eighty Days” this morning, I thought it might be a nice project to find out from those like-minded, which single would run out as favourite.
At the beginning and in its heyday, I bought a lot of products, becoming a big fan of the Field Mice in the process.
I do have a firm favourite in Tell Me How It Feels (The Sweetest Ache) but Cling Film (The Sea Urchins) wasn’t a Sarah single sadly.
There are one hundred items in the official list of singles, the last of which, Sarah 100 is an LP so, for an equal number to start with, I could discount one item and start with 98 tracks and formulate from there.
I’ll be using the hashtag #SarahSingles and expect this to commence shortly so, watch this space!
I’ll tag in those I know on Twitter who’d definitely be interested in taking part and go from there.
Now the FIRST ROUND draw has been made.
Groups of four with the two most-voted for going through to round two.
