His Ideal Get-Together Tune

The song “The Drugs Don’t Work” from Verve features incredibly melancholy lyrics, but such a catchy tune, which brings out real feeling for Miles.
His Life-Changing Song
The track “Get It On” from T. Rex boasts that perfect combination of glamour, masculine, and camp elements. There’s simply something in the way the singer delivers , sings its sensuality. It makes you want to move, but Bolan’s singing style is very subtle. This is even now the most badass rock and roll track ever.

The single “No Limit” by 2Unlimited, as a tape single, from Woolworths or HMV in Liverpool.
