But think on that for a bit
And you’ll realise it’s a while
Since she did a red carpet visit.
–
The last one was back in 09
But Marley and Me wasn’t fine

It’s a must, it’s a must,
it’s a must see.

What is it about a photographer’s shot?
More impact than a bullet
Sharper than a knife

The problem I have with East London is that during the day and even early evening [...]

When you see Saturday morning light
You know everything’s going to be alright.
No work today, time to play
You can even stay in bed all day.
