Hello @bsky.app Here are my early evening summer blooms. Happy Wednesday all. Be kind to yourself 🤸

@mrhollyjohnson.bsky.social Thank you so much for Monday & taking my school bestie Dawn and I back to March 1985 at Manchester Apollo. Between us, we still remember so much of that gig. It’s was bonkers & you all threw your kegs out of the window when we ran round to the stage door afterwards!!

"Shooting stars never stop" 💫 'Welcome to the Pleasuredome' on Wogan, this week in 1985.

"Say it again" 🔊 'War' on the Oxford Roadshow, where were you when you first heard the song 40 years ago?

Speaking about one of Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s first gigs with @itvnews.bsky.social yesterday at Heaven Nightclub. I’ll be live on This Morning tomorrow with Dermot and Alison, tune in from 10am!

It was great to speak with Dermot and Alison on This Morning about 40 years of Welcome to the Pleasuredome! You can watch my full interview on ITVX.

It was great to chat with Dr Michala Hulme on the Unearth the Past podcast and learn all about my family tree! You can watch the full podcast here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVB2...

The 'Welcome to the Pleasuredome' 40th Anniversary celebrations are underway, what a great start it has been in Germany so far!

I'm happy to share I will be on Later with Jools Holland this week, chatting all about the past and my current headline tour celebrating 40 years of ‘Welcome to the Pleasuredome’! Tune in from 10pm this Sunday 25th May on BBC Two and Iplayer 🙌

It was great to join Jools for a chat on this weeks episode of Later with Jools Holland, tune in tonight from 10pm on BBC Two and Iplayer!

Speaking about 'Relax' and the effect it had on Frankie Goes To Hollywood on Later with Jools Holland. You can watch my appearance back on Iplayer.

"Let yourself be beautiful" 💫 What a wonderful tour it has been so far! I look forward to seeing you in Birmingham and London over the coming days ❤️ Video by angels_rush

The 'Hollelujah' 35th Anniversary vinyl & cassette is now available to buy from my store: hollyjohnson.tmstor.es

Recording Studios, Fulham. The title track was recorded there with the lovely and talented Tim Hunt. The cover painting was a detail of a portrait I’d commissioned. It looked like summer sunshine and seemed the right image for the album.

Thinking back to the summer of 1989, 'Hollelujah!' seemed logical to release, after 'Blast!' had reached number one on its first week in the UK album charts. Americanos, the second single and the biggest hit from Blast!, was probably the earliest remix in this collection.

Good Wednesday morning Blue Sky's! “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” Margaret Mead
