GP's Song of the Day: Patrick Swayze
No, honest. Patrick Swayze.
I don't often take requests, but for a mate who's a big Dirty Dancing fan, today's Song of the Day is She's Like The Wind.
As a song, it encapsulates pretty much everything that made the 1980s the decade that music forgot: it's overblown, silly and pompous and has saxaphones on it, for starters. Yet at the same time it's hard not to like it just a little, especially today.
Nobody puts Swayze in a corner.
