Henry:No. It moves me, the way people are supposed to be moved by real music. I was taken once to Covent Garden to hear a woman called Callas in sort of foreign musical with no dancing which people were donating kidneys to get tickets for. The idea was that I would be cured of my strange disability. As though the place were a kind of Lourdes for the musically disadvantaged. My illness at the time took the form of believing that the Righteous Brothers' recording of "You've Lost that Lovin' Feelin'" on the London label was possibly the most haunting, the most deeply moving noise ever produced by the human spirit, and this female vocalist person was going to set me right.
Max:No good?
Henry:Not even close. That woman would have had a job getting into the top thirty if she were hyped.
