Mr Tennant’s first lyric

#1 Post by Demail »

I went to the same primary school as NT and in about 1968 a pamphlet was produced from poems written by pupils. One by NT is attached - Hot Summer. Can’t quite perceive
his seething resentment of the Holy See but I date say it’s in there. I should that he had only one composition in there whereas I had 3. Somehow I failed to become an international pop star. Where’s the justice?

Wow. That second stanza reminds me of the Paninaro '95 video.

Nice! What a great find.

A reprint of the book will now be called: 100 lyrics and two poems.

Brilliant that...
Just for the sake of it, make sure you're always frowning. :|
It shows the world that you've got substance and depth.

Is this authentic? In 1968 Neil was 14 years old. I'd like some more facts before I believe this.
