Lisa Stansfield’s Birthday: A Fine Excuse To Post One Of The Greatest Songs Ever

And don’t even tell me that “All Around The World” isn’t worthy of that title, readers. It’s got joy and pain and a falsetto break! So what is the now-42-year-old singer doing these days? Her official site hasn’t been updated since last July (not even a birthday wish!), but that’s recent enough to tip us off to her role in the Dylan Thomas biopic The Edge Of Love, which also stars Matthew Rhys, Keira Knightley, and Sienna Miller and which opens in the UK in June. From the looks of stills from the set, Lisa’s character shares her nicely curled hair. (Oh, how I wanted a spit-curl like hers back in the day; I had to settle for a mop of frizz.)
