YOU'RE THE FIRST, THE LAST, MY EVERYTHING * BARRY WHITE * 20TH CENTURY * 2133 * UK

There is something about Barry White and long titles, one contender for the longest must be It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down Next To Me which could quite easily have been: It's Ecstasy as we didn't really need the context in the title. Your My First, My Last, My Everything, another long title and his seventh for 20th Century, is an infectiously happy song, which was just the tonic for many young folk to be dancing to in the evening after being incarcerated, for economic reasons, in state holding pens all day for five days a week . . . sing it Barry you big walrus of love.
