I did know about Teenage Kicks been his favourite song, but I did not know the story behind he reacted and the lyrics
I used to listen to him quite a bit from 1977 to 1982 - he would play a casette tape of any band/one/group if he thought it had something of interest, sometimes he played a guy talking away from 20 minutes or so called life in a Scottish sitting Room. Around 1977/8 he would play Punk/New Wave and no one on the BBC really would.
With his Festive Fifty charts of the time (listeners fav songs of the year) Joy Division usually were top. This is what I thought JP would have liked a lot, but Teenage Kicks surprised me and up lifted me, because I liked its simple message, catchy fast beat, and the cry that we can be prisoners to our emotions, at times.
Here we go....
