NO Ingrid, just David

Let's talk about something besides Ingrid Chavez.
Answer these questions: Where were you the first time you heard David Sylvian? Who, if anyone, turned you on to his work? What year was it, if you remember?
The first time I heard DS, I was in my kitchen. My friend Christian, who is known for his ability to seek out and find THE BEST music, had given me a cd with a whole bunch of stuff on it and "Orpheus" was on there. I was cleaning the kitchen, putting dishes in the dishwasher, and when I heard Sylvian's voice, I did one of those movie-like moments, turning and staring at the stereo, jaw dropped, with wet dishes in my hands dripping water on the floor and stayed that way until the song was over. I then promptly played it again about five or six times in a row. (I don't remember what year this was--a few years ago.)
