Blood and Chocolate Survivor - Round 6

Uncomplicated is out. I was not expecting to see the side A songs be voted out so soon. This is a great song, but it is definitely more simplistic than the other songs on the album. It only has two chords.

A great album opener, definitely. Love it, and I haven't voted it out yet.

I'll never forget being a die hard teenage Elvis fan in '86 after King of America had come out, and seeing this taster for his next album on The Old Grey Whistle Test. (Uncomplicated is second in this setlist).

So soon after the gentle acoustic sounds of that album, it was a real shocker, but Elvis and the guys looked cool as f*ck and the new song with its two chords had a massive impact.

I still don't know what a 'big blue Diamel' is - I thought he said 'big blue diamond' on the night - but I guess I should Google it.
