Since uploading my Podcast single Kirsty MacColl talks about Fairytale of New York, yesterday, I watched an immensely moving documentary on YouTube called Who killed Kirsty MacColl. I had forgotten that we are coming up to the twentieth anniversary of her tragic death. So, it seems that posting just a few minutes of Kirsty talking about Shane and that song, is a travesty of the memory of the woman, her life, and art. At least that's how I feel this morning. So, by way of celebrating Kirsty MacColl, who died this time twenty years ago as a result of a boating accident, I am uploading for the first time the full conversation we had in 1993 at the time of the release of her latest album Titanic Days. How could I have known - or she - what was being predicted when I asked her the following question about the song Titanic Days, "why does it end like that - it sounds like she is sinking.' Eerie.
