I am here for Dating and Friends

About Me

I'm hopeless at self-promotion - I sell myself short, which is probably intentional as I don't want to appear conceited or be known for being "up myself" as the phrase goes.
Friends and family have described me as generous, loving, kind, intelligent, loyal, honest, intuitive and a good listener/friend/companion amongst other things... I'd like to think I might be some of these. It's all open for interpretation and it's not for me to say!
Friends, family and work are always high on my priorities - through them I have learnt everything about the world and myself, and how I relate within it.
I am passionate about my first love, music. I can't play any instruments (though 2007 looks as being the year of learning), have aspirations of being a potentially average songwriter (but getting better all the time) and I'm not a great singer (I can hold a note but am working on holding two!)... but I have an ear for a good beat and really enjoy listening to music, going to concerts and buying CDs and DVDs with a passion!
I have been a fan of Culture Club since I was 5 - and so much so that I own and run two websites dedicated to them: Cyber Chameleon and Lyrically Speaking .
This year, I've undertaken the helm of another website - the one for 80s music video show Chartbusting 80s , which has been lots of fun!
I'm at my happiest when catching up with friends or family - and that could entail going out to the movies or for a meal - even simple shopping trips have turned out to be enjoyable experiences! My Flickr photo album will give you more photos of me and hopefully some insight as to what I've been up to and where I've been recently!
I hope, that through MySpace, I get to make and meet some great friends! If you like what you read/see, feel free to mail, I promise I'll respond!Dunno what else to say really - ask me something if there's something you'd like to know, I promise to answer and not be offended!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Everyone who'd like to meet me!
Seriously, I admire and appreciate being around people who inspire / intrigue / entertain or amuse - and do in the most subtle of ways, creativity also doesn't go un-noticed.
It may sound like a lot to live up to, but I assure you that it isn't, and that I am able to find many of these qualities in most people I meet.

Music:

Culture Club, Darren Hayes, Boy George (and his various projects), Savage Garden, Michael Jackson, Dannii Minogue, Kylie Minogue, Goldfrapp, Madonna, George Michael, Wham, Janet Jackson, Gwen Stefani, Alicia Keys, Justin Timberlake, Take That, Gary Barlow, Robbie Williams, BBMak, Billy Joel, Phil Collins, The Beatles, Cyndi Lauper, Duran Duran, Blondie, Human League, Human Nature, Rick Astley, Bananarama, Ricki-Lee, Melissa Tkautz, The Eurythmics, generally 80s/90s/00s pop and dance - there are many exceptions to that rule as I don't mind some music from other genres (except classical and opera) but it's not what I listen to generally.

Movies:

I tend to like comedies, dramas, thrillers and romantic films. I have never really been into sci-fis, historical or action films but there have been the odd exceptions. To list some recent, not so recent and all time favourites: Music And Lyrics, Brokeback Mountain, Just Like Heaven, Monster In Law, Prime, Legally Blonde, Mean Girls, American Pie, Butterfly Effect, Donnie Darko, Zoolander, Gremlins, Electric Dreams, Ghost, Aladdin, Priscilla: Queen of the Desert, The Wedding Singer, Romy & Michele, Girl Next Door, Sweet Home Alabama, The Ring, The Grudge, Scary Movie... but I'm hopeless at remembering quotes from movies and amaze people by the number of films I haven't seen!

Television:

Current and recent favourites: Chartbusting 80s, Will & Grace, Desperate Housewives, Heroes, Ugly Betty, Supernatural, Prison Break, How I Met Your Mother, Lost, Charmed, The O.C....

Books:

'Straight' and 'Take It Like A Man' by Boy George, "My Take" by Gary Barlow, I like reading up on my favourite bands/artists old & new - and tend to find out more in music & gossip magazines and newspapers and not books as such.

Songwriting (Blank Canvas)

Somewhere in my MySpace profile I mentioned I "have aspirations of being a potentially average songwriter"... I thought I'd test that theory out by putting up some of my lyrics here. In 2007, I will a...
