Help[Opinions] Re: Avalon
in reply to a message by xPrincess27x
There was a pop song about 25 years ago I suppose, perhaps longer, either called Avalon or about an Avalon person. I never heard it, but I did meet a woman whose daughter (now deep in her 20s) was named Avalon after the song because it was absolutely the only name her father would even consider. They were Irish. I found it weird, but as pop-song names go, it could have been worse.

Roxy Music
The song, and the album - which had "More Than This" on it too.
*sigh* I must be getting old, because I'm totally boggled (and a little sad) that out of all these responses, only one person associates Roxy Music, and you can't even remember the song.
But I guess that is good news for any other pop-culture name obsessions people might have. They're forgotten so quickly, and it becomes just a name.

It's worse! I never knowingly heard the song ... but my informant's DH clearly loved it quite excessively. In fact, now I'm trying to remember any Roxy Music song, and failing.

Possibly the prettiest pop song, ever. =)
