The stereo in Neros

Red letter moment yesterday.

Getting coffee for my colleagues in Neros. Listening to the music in the queue. I was interested in the singer and thinking about her style.

Another track comes on. Oh, I think. Someone else has done a cover of Change is Gonna Come, like I did with Honeyroot. Humm, I think, these people must have heard our track and been really influenced by it. I feel proud. Humm. Hang on, that singer sounds a bit like me.

We get to the chorus.

O! It is me! I'm on the stereo! It's me singing like a proper singer on the stereo in Cafe Nero in Hampstead!

I bubble with excitement. I look around. I want to tell everyone. I'm handed my coffees. I want to tell the barrista. I'm shy. I don't.

But it was cool :)
