125 She Said by Plan B 2010

2010. In the middle of 2010 My family and I travelled around Europe and the UK. We didn't use public transport much hiring a car for getting about. Although I now have my own personal radio, my iPod with it's 25 000 or more songs more often than not we'd put on the radio to get some local flavor. I don't ever use the radio in my car in Melbourne but hey! we're on holiday. And there wasn't just me listening.
The first new song that grabbed our attention was She Said by Plan B. Not too far removed from Amy Winehouse with it's retro feel. I have to admit I first thought it was a girl singing and didn't realize it was a guy until we saw the video at my brother's place.
My brother David is still very keen on music and just keeps collecting all kinds of music. He lent me a CD of the top radio songs to listen to in the car. This was on it. When we left Blackpool we forgot to give it back to him. So we had the song to play all around Europe. It didn't matter though. Because everywhere we went Spain, Italy, France this was blasting out of radios, shops and televisions. Listening to the song now I'm taken back to driving along the coastal roads of the Mediterranean.
