STRAWBERRY SWITCHBLADE
‘Jolene’
(Korova)

Feeble Radio Two fodder by the girls who cannot see they are one-hit wonders. A quick wobble through an old Dolly Parton hit, sung with all the emotion of a cold haddock, surely cannot give them a hit.

We’re grateful to the generous people at Zounds Abound for finding us this article. They do such a brilliant job of trawling vintage newspapers for music articles that people want to read today. They’re raising funds and awareness for Teenage Cancer Trust in memory of their son Noah. You can read about Noah, the care the Trust enabled him to have, and make a donation here.

The Strawberry Switchblade fansite and its social media accounts aren’t monetised in any way. If you want to show that kind of appreciation, please donate to the Teenage Cancer Trust in memory of Noah instead. They’ll make far better use of your money than we would.
