Agree. I was shocked and saddened when I saw the RIP notice for Fran at the end of the programme. She had a tough start, tough life until she found NS, and deserved a ripe old age. 53 was too young. She did say about doing "drugs" though, as most of them did just to keep up the hi-energy on the dancefloor. RIP indeed.
@ bibilynch @birds_in_trees Listening to Chris Clark's version which is good but so glad that 2 copies of Frank's version survived when he decided he didn't want to be an artist.

Great documentary - The Precisions 'if This Is Love (I'd rather be lonely)' may well be one of the greatest dancefloor songs ever recorded
