Love" L.O.V.E. Love From the club they stumbled out unbeknown with that last, that favourite song, which wafted like the smell of food into the night sky. (The moon was a child’s drawing of a moon, silver on black in a sky thick with stars. The streets had just been cleaned). They knew that if their love lasted the night out, it would have hardened by morning, like icing left overnight in the shut-up restaurant by the bus station. The song looped back to sing itself again, like the constant whistling in their ears, or the alarm howling behind the houses, insisting it was this moment that mattered, this hunger that love should be. (‘Take a look at the faces of those boys when the girls smile. Look at them grin.’) So they guessed, this feeling was the few minutes in their lives that was the other life they hoped the whole would be, the thrill that had them shudder as their eyes met. As if, before fading, the evening had stir-fried its colours through the chords of that song, to serenade them into the bus bays, down the aisles, to haunt them home. As if the song were called ‘L.O.V.E. Love’, and, between them, they knew all the words.	Tracks available for download From Pop Happenings Vol 4 1. Lying on the Phone 2. Wupping 3. Mirrorball 4.
