    Holy canoli, this is good stuff! And that vocal harmony in the coda just knocks it out of the park! 👏🏻 At first I wasn’t certain that Ms. Marsa was a suitable choice for the female vocal, but it became increasingly apparent as the song proceeded that she indeed was. This should’ve been your biggest hit single in the U.S. Adding to my playlist of favorite individual music tracks.

    Great to see this again Dean. You may not remember but you played the Cafe Royale in London in Spring 1988 to a very small select group of people who won tickets on Heart Radio. I won two tickets and came along with my Wife. You were asking for requests and I asked for Lucky Stars. You said it’s a duet. I suggested we, the audience did Denise parts….you laughed then agreed….and it was fun! Never forgot that night!

    Songs then had something to say
    Along with the music
    That's why they remain in our
    Minds I suppose.
    Remember the pina colada song.
    The guy who wrote this was a very
    Intelligent person in other spheres
    Of his life.
    This one just came to him
    And he thought why not.
    Why not indeed.

    This is a clever song and a song of two parts. First, we have Dean's part where he does the usual cheeky chansonnier BS in the merry style of, say, Barry Manilow or Elton John. Then we get the contrasting intense reality of the female (Denise?) part, where she sings with the real feelings of a real woman. For sure, that's exactly how women speak and it's rare to hear.
    Turns out that Dean is playing at T/Wells in May, which is near me, so I might well go along to that.

    Hey Dean!
    There are moments in this song that make me think of "Say No To This", from Hamilton (which came out decades later, of course). I think it's mostly Denise's voice, but the duet vibe as a whole too.

    Hey Dean, I saw you 'somewhere' in London, Engerland a few years ago with Sam accompanying you. On that night I kindly purchased Well Well Said The Rocking Chair, AGAIN, just so you could sign it for me. Which you kindly did. My name was and remains, Dave. I'm sure you remember? However, technology has taken an awkward twist since then and I no longer own a CD player. Therefore I'd really like for you to send me a signed MP3 of WWSTRC for my collection, please? I mean, it's not like the postage is going to cost you anything, is it? Thanking you in advance, yours sincerely, Dave Clark... NO, not THAT one! xx
