It always reminds me of the Liverpool when the stand collasped they played it constantly, it still beings a tear to my eye...xx

More often than not, when you feature a song, it will be one of my own personal favourites. Nice pictures, Simon, I've never been to Liverpool, your pictures always make me regret that. Hope you have had a great Monday. Is Matt still with you?

Can't wait to let you take me on a ferry... will you sing this song to me when we do?

Oh Ladies there's every type of emotion in this box can you feel it.
Thank you, may I say to you all first that I can not hear this if I'm away from Merseyside without crying! Even on Merseyside there is a lump in the throat!
It's not brilliant music but it certainly brings out the emotions to Scousers wherever they may be in the world.
It's not about the group there were thousands of bands that sounded just like that in the Merseybeat era.
It's not even about the Ferry, The River Mersey or the town of Birkenhead and the City of Liverpool.......BUT IT IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVOURITES and always will be!
So there!
