icy pulls ahead in the race up the score board

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHyR4ZzA2R0

Simon Bates a radio 1 dj at the time had a slot called our tune in which he would read out a story of a listener about an emotional time in their life, usually ending in tragedy and in the background would be playing the love theme from Romeo and Juliet, from the Franco Zeffirelli film Romeo and Juliet

i will award points tonight

anyone want to add some QIs for extra points
