Frankie Goes To Hollywood (Helga)


I see that Frankie played in Liverpool last night

Really I thought they disbanded years ago

They did this was a one off

It brings back memories

Do you remember the RELAX vest you wore on our holiday in Devon

I do

I purchased it whilst passing through Shepherds Bush Market

What were you doing in Shepherds Bush

I was researching an exhibition that was once held in White City

I had been commissioned to write an article if you remember

I loved that vest

There was a simplicity about it

Pale yellow

Black

You wore it frequently

It just went with my cut downs

I felt free

It did have its disadvantages

Yes

Do you remember when we went into that village shop

I did not really think about its immodesty or really care

I felt free

The poor chap behind the counter was not really prepared for it

Especially at seven in the morning

He could not take his eyes off of your boobs

I have really nice boobs

Agreed

You made his day as normally the campers and the local old dears were his customers

The strange thing is that nobody really gave a shit

I wore it during our walks and in the local villages

Boobs were boobs and they were quite commonplace

I am not sure how the RELAX vests would be received these days

People are not as free anymore

They are uptight and do not live

They think they are free

But they exist in a cell

And have lost the key

You can tell that on beaches also

It is all about fashion

Whereas in those days you just rocked up wearing anything you liked

There was no branding

Beaches were beaches

We were so European

So free

What happened to your vest

Saul broke the shoulder strap one day

I tied the ends together but it was a fatal flaw

Frankie was dying and would never return to Hollywood

That is a pity Helga

Why

Because originals of the RELAX vest go for a bomb online

Mine was a fake and you know it

Why do you say that

Where did you buy it

Shepherds Bush Market

Think about it Saul

Think about it
