The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.

So bad it's wonderful
Patrick Hernandez and his 1979 hit Born to be alive. What's not to love about it?
Ha ha! My sister got this in France on a French Exchange visit and we really got into it, then it was released in the UK. Sort of think one could actually dance to!

Steve, this is one of thse songs that sticks in the mind, a bit like Sylvester's You Make Me Feel!
One thing I don't do for anyone is dance..,Imagine the grace of a hippo on its hind legs!
This is almost as camp as Liberace! I think I liked it when I was about nine.
It's quite fun crap though Siani!
You promised to do this. Or was that threatened? And now here it is.
I was also Born To Be Alive, jams. We have so much in common, you and me!
WE are also born to be dead too... I did threaten to put this up a while ago. I ahd forgoten that I hadn't!
