Good one Robert

[ROBERT M.]

[Christine Hampshire]

Heard it Sandra a rare gem like you said and it would be great like you and Robert said for May and June.

[Sandra]

As Christine said Steve Wright played Matt singing We're Gonna Change The World on his Tuesday show.

[Sandra]

Did I Love The Little Things get played/mentioned on any of the Radio 2 Eurovision programmes does anyone know.

[john]

I don't know Sandra, it would have been nice if it had.

[Christine Hampshire]

I know it wasn't played on the two hour Ken Bruce programme on the day of the Eurovision which replaced Pick Of The Pops.

[Rmoore]

In one of Matt's last interviews he spoke about this. The interviewer asked about what song he'd sung on Eurovision and when Matt said "I Love The Little Things" the interviewer said he didn't remember that one. Matt responded, words to the effect that "nobody else does so why should you" (I used the clip in Boy From Shoreditch) Evidently no one at the BBC remembers either!

[john]

And I always thought it was quite a catchy little song, I was surprised it never even charted even though it was the runner up.

[Sandra]

I thought the same John. In fact I liked all of the songs on the E.P Do you think it didn't chart because of the E.P ?

[john]

Maybe so Sandra, I too also like all the songs on that E.P. Especially Beautiful Beautiful.

[Christine Hampshire]

I also liked the EP and I loved " Choose"

[Sandra]

Mine was Ten Out Of Ten
