it's a strange phenomenon - why is Wilko such a charming, charismatic, lovable guy? Even my French friend who can't understand his English say "ah lurve zis personne !!"
Wilco is Wonderful!!!! I could listen to his storys forever!!! And he plays a bit of guitar as well! To anyone who's ever looked at a guitar in a shop window and Dreamed ( I've been there!) This Tale brings a tear to the eye and warmth to the Heart!
Wonderful life story. Put aside your own aspirations to invest in another persons dream. Without probably never knowing, your gift is the catalyst for great success .
Paying for stuff like that was called 'lay away', a decent way of doing business that's pretty much gone now. It could all have been so different of he'd spotted the photos of Mick with a Gibson SG....
It's called the 'Estuary English' accent. It's the accent associated with people who live along the River Thames. It's a lot like a London, Cockney accent really.
He's being really self depreciating here. He may not have paid his girlfriend back the cash, but he did marry her, so I'm sure she done well out of the deal. I can't imagine it happening these days, now I think women would just leave and go for the man with the telecaster already, and then she'd end up with a guy with a fraction of the loyalty. Great video, but thinking of the state of male and female relations these days, set to compete against each other instead of extenuating each other, it's a shame.
