Went to see the Taylor Swift “Eras” film. Brilliant show. Also “You’re on your own kid” is a slam dunk masterpiece of a song, and a mic drop reply to anyone who’s still questioning her talent as a writer.

Last thing - interesting note from @musicweek ... "From the bottom to the top: A little more than 15 years after his first album, Sleep Is For The Week, sold 1,099 copies to debut on the chart’s bottom rung, No.200, Frank Turner’s ninth, FTHC, opens at No.1." NOT BAD.
