Talk:Bram Tchaikovsky

Comment in 2006
Any thought about discussing the lyrics to "Girl Of My Dreams" in the entry? There was some "Louie, Louie"-like controversy at the time because the album included no printed lyrics, and a later release of the 'official' lyrics (from the record company, perhaps, in response to the controversy? - my memory is failing me) were patently incorrect. The 'official' lyrics for example stated that the second line was "She gave him a poem with the U.S. Mail," but most everyone agreed the band actually sang, quite clearly, "She came in the morning with the U.S. Mail."

Most agreed the song's "Judy" was not fully real, but it is not clear what she actually was. Interpretations at the time ranged from a pen pal's photograph, to a fully imaginary friend, to an allusion to masturbation, to an inflatable sex doll. (The latter, oddly enough, seems the most sensible when listening to the album version, though such a subject matter is totally at odds with the ringing guitars, plaintive vocals, and beautifully crafted pop hooks.) Rather than put guesswork and speculation into an official Wikipedia entry, would there be any way to track down Bram or one of his mates to provide a once-and-for-all explanation? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.73.193.5 (talk) 02:00, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Micky Broadbent's son and I think maybe Bram's as well run the official Facebook page for the Bram Tchaikovsky group, you could contact them via those channels most likely. And as for Judy not being "real" she wasn't, the line "she came in the morning in the US mail" is correct, that's how you would get blow up dolls (to save embarrassment buying one in a sex shop), in the mail, it's a dead giveaway and I do know that for the conservative British public back then, those lyrics would have been considered lurid and crass and hence why the record company "changed them". Go here for an interesting take on that, the guy does a cover of the song and explains what he thinks it was about. 5.56.31.175 (talk) 16:13, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
