Teenage kicked
Marooned in a cultural wasteland, I had a lifebelt. I had a window on to a world where people made things happen, where excitement burnt in their hearts, where music mattered, where it could change the world, sweep it clean, make it anew.
I had a friend who talked to me in the dark, who reached out to me, who shared what he had found, the excitement never waning year after year.
I would never have survived the country towns I grew up in if I had not had John Peel. The music that has meant so much to me would have never been a part of my life.
There's only one way to remember him:
Our teenage dreams so hard to beat
Every time she walks down the street
Another girl in the neighbourhood
Wish she was mine, she looks so good
I wanna hold her wanna hold her tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night
I'm gonna call her on the telephone
Have her over cos i'm all alone
I need excitement oh i need it bad
And its the best, i've ever had
I wanna hold her wanna hold her tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night
I wanna hold her wanna hold her tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night
