This album holds a special place in my heart also, altho it was my 2nd u/w album. I had bought Beaucoup Fish when it was released, and then a couple of months later my Mum's appendix (@76!) went Pete Tong and she was rushed to hospital. After a week of visits and ups and downs I was totally frazzled with worry and requested a couple of days off work just to chill. On the Friday I went to Cheltenham (a lovely sedate town, should you care to visit) and bought 2nd Toughest, with the bonus cd containing BS/Nuxx and Rez. Played it that eve quite late, and I was away on the space shuttle! The utter beauty of Janitta/Kiteless/To Dream of Love with the closing lines "..and blue..and blue" reflecting the gorg artwork of the cover, and then Pearls Girl...well, what can I say?? All my pent up worry/emotion of the previous week was just blasted out of me in its sheer energising jet stream. I think of this track virtually every day.
