The first question, I think is too intimate to answer. Everybody sees different things in the songs. About "Take him back..." I would say that this song is about a separation as everybody could live. The theme is universal. About the cassette tape in "Cruising for bruising", the photo is foggy (?). I see a soldier and the title begins with "...THE..." (Danny, please, your finger). It's not... U2. It's not Britney Spear (she was a baby when the clip was shot). May be Ronald Reegan... Can someone give the solution, please ?. Regards.

My guess is that no one knows for sure except Basia, Danny, and the inner circle from that time. One thing is interesting however: on May 21 1997, DFF posted a message on this ML that Danny would be getting married on Sept 13th. The bride's name was not disclosed. DFF posted again on Sept 18th and wrote that she had spoken with Peter and that the wedding had taken place. Again, no mention of the bride's name was made. So, here's another trivia question: who did Danny marry? Jim __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send online invitations with Yahoo!
