“Golden Girl” lyrics:

VERSE 1
Your eyes first met over the Atlantic
You’ll never forget: it was so romantic
Despite yourself, you rushed from smiles to baby names
She bit her lip; who needs a match to light the flames?

CHORUS
Golden Girl ... kissed by the fire of the sun
You wanna give her a whirl
Even though she’s on the run
Long legs, tight jeans, shadows in her eyes
Take a closer look: it’s all a disguise ... Golden Girl

VERSE 2
She’d spend a week wandering Paris, France
But she didn’t speak when you asked if you stood a chance
She took her sweet time, gazing at a place you couldn’t see
You wanted to climb a wall or give her the third degree

CHORUS

BRIDGE
The thing you refuse to accept
You’re just some guy, and she hasn’t slept
So skip the fantasies and read the signs
She doesn’t want your pick-up lines

VERSE 3
You landed and she topped off her champagne
Without another glance, she walked off the airplane
You finally realize she might not be the girl of your dreams
She was being polite; you had to take it to extremes

CHORUS

Golden Girl

The rogue duet version of "Quarter to 10" came out of a happy accident in the recording studio, and we liked it so much that we released it as a single. It features Mark Wade solo on all of the choruses except the last one.

Quarter To 10 (Rogue Duet) feat. Mark Wade

In the eighties, Les Marquis wrote songs for a band called This Perfect Day. They played around Liverpool - the home of Merseybeat and the Beatles - in the Eighties. The song showcased here is Dreamer.

Love music! Love to dream :-)

Dreamer - This Perfect Day

An upbeat pop song about rejecting snobbery, realizing the world is a big place and embracing others.

A 'Yacht Rock Show Special' with my special guest Daryl Hall. In the first hour of this special show I'm in conversation with the music legend Daryl Hall. We talk about his recent tours, the latest Album 'D', 'Live from Daryl's House' and about his memories of the 70s and 80s music scene. Then a fine hour of the best of 'Yacht Rock'!
