Life through the lens...

"Flowers in the Rain"

"I'm just sitting watching flowers in the rain
Feel the power of the rain making my garden grow"

A few lines from the song written by Roy Wood in 1967 (The year we were married!) and recorded by The Move.
Reached No 2 in the charts.
Was the first record to be played on Radio 1.

Also found out that in a promotional stunt for the record, a postcard was released with a cartoon of a naked Harold Wilson, linking him to his secretary, Marcia Williams. Wilson sued, and the High Court ordered that all royalties from this song were donated to a charity of Mr Wilson's choice.

What I find out for Blippers!!!

Hope it is not as wet with all of you!
