Ok for sure he should have been a mega star of global proportions, anyone with a pair of ears can tell. But he was succesful and his music found a select group of people like myself who recognise greatness and who will continue to be with his music in the now....forever. 💖💖💖👍
Amazing voice! The best!!! Love you Colin. Knowing since my childhood only one of your songs ( Wonderful life) I rediscovered your 🎶 music and I'm taken away. Hope you are singing up there!!! 🙏💗
I dream such a pretty dream in scarlet and gold … of you, when you were sixteen Me, when I am old My life is like a Scrapbook of ghosts Sweet girl, her lips speak to me in troubles and hell of sun, and sea, and sand about tales and the cleft of her I dream of an Angel of dusk My dream is my future, my past like a Scrapbook of ghosts My life is my future, is my past I dream, such a pretty dream in scarlet and gold in bed when I was sweet sixteen. Myself when I am old. My life is a Scrapbook of ghosts My life is a Scrapbook of ghosts like my future, my past My life is my future my past… My life is like a Scrapbook of ghosts My life is like a Scrapbook of ghosts
Together with Sweetest Smile remains my favourite Black song. There are other classics too. He seemed to reach a teenage consciousness and angst that no other musician could before, during or after. It's something very personal and emotional. The crescendo at the end adds to the drama of the theme. Thank you for posting. And I had the pleasure of meeting the great man personally. I feel very privileged and can say that we has a genuinely, humble and sincere person.
As all his fans painfully know, Colin was tragically taken from us on 26 January 2016. But he left a legacy with such a huge back catalogue of great songs, recorded performances & memories; he was a master of the #LoveSong - whether a high energy rouser or the slowest of #ballads; he had his trademark voice - often described as "silky smooth" or #VelvetVoice; and he was such a lovely bloke who never strayed too far from his roots, just his record companies' demands. Colin never had the wider appreciation & commercial success his talent deserved, but his many dedicated fans know he is a truly great #SingerSongwriter, one of the very best of his (& our) generation. As an #InMemorian #InMemory tribute, I have been pulling together some of Colin's favourites & the fans' - your - favourites, and posting them via #Twitter using the following hashtags: #ColinVearncombe (that unusual name he thought was a cross to bear, now an advantage!) #Black #JustMakingMemories It would be great if you shared your very favourite tracks & videos as part of the tribute. On the #anniversary of his death (26/1/2016) & the anniversary of his beautiful #MemorialService at the #Liverpool Anglican Cathedral (19/2/2016), it would be a fitting tribute for us to share these two videos on your social media: #BlackIsTheColourOfHope (dedicated to Colin by Chris McDonald & Rod Da Rosa) ua-cam.com/video/_f0Lv8jmnI4/v-deo.html #WonderfulLife (the song he fell in & out of love with but was proud of at the end) ua-cam.com/video/TVD9lo2FLLc/v-deo.html As in the song sung so beautifully at Colin's Memorial Service by Chris & Rod: "I just felt so cheated you were taken too soon...tonight a thousand voices will be crying out for you...because you made Black the colour of hope...you keep playing on for us, so we'll keep playing on for you".
I bought this 12” and always thought it was one of his best tracks. Thank you for uploading. I feel privileged to have been able to appreciate the man and his music.

Красивая печаль!
Lindo tema
*Colin Vearncombe* *WONDERFUL STAR*
I dream such a pretty dream
in scarlet and gold
… of you, when you were sixteen
Me, when I am old
My life is like a Scrapbook of ghosts
Sweet girl, her lips speak to me in troubles and hell
of sun, and sea, and sand
about tales and the cleft of her
I dream of an Angel of dusk
My dream is my future, my past like a Scrapbook of ghosts
My life is my future, is my past
I dream, such a pretty dream in scarlet and gold
in bed when I was sweet sixteen.
Myself when I am old.
My life is a Scrapbook of ghosts
My life is a Scrapbook of ghosts like my future, my past
My life is my future
my past…
My life is like a Scrapbook of ghosts
My life is like a Scrapbook of ghosts
Very beautiful !
Pure class
RIP Colin!!!!!....................
"Every time i hear this song it gets better. Well done CV"
The greatest b-side artist ever!
+Karl Hainer agreed, Colin was the best in this regard.
I think it means than you get worse. If that is, it's the same for me.

It would be great if you shared your very favourite tracks & videos as part of the tribute.
On the #anniversary of his death (26/1/2016) & the anniversary of his beautiful #MemorialService at the #Liverpool Anglican Cathedral (19/2/2016), it would be a fitting tribute for us to share these two videos on your social media:
#BlackIsTheColourOfHope (dedicated to Colin by Chris McDonald & Rod Da Rosa)

#WonderfulLife (the song he fell in & out of love with but was proud of at the end)

As in the song sung so beautifully at Colin's Memorial Service by Chris & Rod:
"I just felt so cheated you were taken too soon...tonight a thousand voices will be crying out for you...because you made Black the colour of hope...you keep playing on for us, so we'll keep playing on for you".
