Rosie Bell sent me this link to YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOTyiy5KNVk asking me if I knew this song. What a thing to inflict. This song was the bane of my childhood, kids would encircle me in the playground chanting it, and adults would do the same thinking they were being funny (no, not in the playground, they weren’t that kind of adult). If not for this song I would have grown up a happy, adjusted individual. When I sing Ricky on stage I usually preface it with the undesirability of a name like Norman when you’re a child in the west of Scotland. Quod erat demonstrandum.

And I get A Whole Lotta Rosie (AC/DC) and Cracklin’ Rosie (Neil Diamond).
Before I shortened my name I used to get Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes and Parsley Sage Rosemary & Thyme (I had a boyfriend called Tim those days.)
I must say I do better than Norman, woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
I get “Mark Mark. Is that a dog with a hare lip”?
