Asha Golden brown

Asha (aka Asha Elijah Asher Quinn) sings Golden brown by the Stranglers, from his album Radio Starlight. Album currently in production. CD, download when finished. This is my favourite popsong of all time Released in 1981, it climbed to number 2 in the charts. Even that detail made me feel connected to its story, as I tended to like things that reached number 2, rather than number 1. This meant that it was not truly mainstream, but belonged on the road less travelled. When I was young, I used to come second in running races, rather than first; and be in the second stream at school rather than the top one. And my football team always came a gallant second, but didn t win the championship. I usually identified with the alternative, rather than the top position. Same with girls; it was always unrequited love with me, rather than getting the girl. I remember being enthralled, captivated and amazed seeing Golden brown, 39 br, br,
