07 Aug 14 - 11:30 AM (#3649108) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: spice island From: Gda Music Thank goodness for the cassette tape machine. The repetitious and constant replay of certain words/phrases is the essential tool when hopefully deciphering at least some of the more obscure parts of any lyric. In this case I just pasted the Spice Island lyric thereby taking the easy way out to print my own copy for reference. GJ |
