Day 3: Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits

OK so yesterday I tried to demonstrate that my musical tastes have just about made it into the 21st century. Alas now I have done that I shall return to the 80s. In year 11 we were asked to write about two songs we liked in an English lesson. The first song I chose was Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits, the second one you shall find out tomorrow. The two songs I chose were based on clever lyrics. This song has the line “and all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme” which I think was a pretty neat line. Enjoy!
