Soft Cell with Miss Bond the Governess by Chalkie Davies for The Face magazine, 1981
‟We were joined by a bona fide dominatrix found through a card in a shop window. Dave loved all the S&M imagery. I was the one who probably felt more uncomfortable with it.” — Marc Almond, Marc Almond (photo book, 2015)

David Ball (Soft Cell) (1982-09)
You know what’s kinda funny to me, how people say they hate or dislike country music because it’s only about a guy losing a girlfriend or wife and drinking his sorrows away.
But if you listen to some of the older songs it’s more than that. They tell stories about soldiers who didn’t make it, missing an opportunity, a baby being born and how they changed the parents’ lives, mental health, abuse, death, the way your view on love changes as you age, disabilities, battles, how the good book can help you find a higher power, ghosts.
The people who are saying that they don’t like country music are probably only listening to the newer artists, not taking the time to go back and see the older generation and hear the stories they have to tell.
If you’re interested I can add a few songs to listen to! 🥰🤟🏻
