Veronica - Elvis Costello.
I used to love this song until I read the wiki - now find it really sad.

""The song focuses on an older woman who has experienced severe memory loss. Costello's inspiration for this song was his grandmother, who suffered from Alzheimer's. When talking about the song on a VH1 interview, Costello reminisced about his grandmother having "terrifying moments of lucidity" and how this was the inspiration for "Veronica"".

Hey Boy - Via Africa
Partied a little with them at a Durban club called "Zodiac", don't remember who it was, maybe Lucas, that wore porcupine quills in his hair one night.
By very odd coincidence their framed gold album landed up in my office a couple of years back for safe keeping from someone who had it in their possession. I contacted Rene Veldsman about the situation. It was later returned under duress to the the person from whom it was brought to me from. I doubt the folk from Via Afrika ever saw it again !!
