Happy anniversary to The Associates album, ‘Perhaps’. Released this week in 1985. #TheAssociates #BillyMackenzie #Perhaps
Whoops... #billymackenzie
Doesn't diminish the sentiment.
I'm just a bit unaware with my mc's and mac's.
I’ll have a shower, then phone my brother up…
Day five of superb Scottish records, remembering beautiful Billy on a sad anniversary 🖤

#90sTop30 (vi) ‘Give Me Time’ #BillyMackenzie. I saw an interview with Jim Kerr once, describing Associates’ work as “spy thriller music” - and this, a co-write with Paul Haig, continues (superbly) in that vein. Quite a direct lyric, sung brilliantly. m.youtube.com/watch?v=0hbL...
