Forever Trevor

A little dedication with my appreciation to
Trevor Nelson MBE (Music Belongs Everywhere)

You’re the guardian of grooving
Who really gets the people moving
At work, at home, at play
Putting heart ‘n soul in their day

You’re the R&BBC airwave magician
Who seamlessly made the transmission
From sexy duvet vibes at night
To fab and funky afternoon delight
If love of music be the food

You’re the appetiser that sets the mood
And unlocks the door
To million dollar life memories
And mind blowing moments on the dance floor
You’re the easy going dude
That gets people singing in the nude
As they take a shower
Or spend at least an hour
Hanging their head in shame
When they knew it but changed their mind and blew it
On ‘five seconds to name’

You bring out the best in all kinds of folks
Sharing their top tunes and bonkers anecdotes
Always responding with a chuckle and a grin
Even when your beloved other Blues go and lose
When you knew they ought to win

From shy Hackney boy
To bringer of national joy
Us music evangelists could never
Imagine life without Trevor
To keep driving the beat and spreading the elation
Day in and night out in this, our amazing rhythm nation.
