Where I\u2019m based now in Muswell Hill hosts an array of memories for us both as during our university days this was where we lived for 2 of the 3 years, and boasts a selection of really great memories amid some not-so-great. There are two main bus services that we relied heavily on \u2013 the 134 to Soho (stops you directly behind The Phoenix Theatre \u2013 AKA Pee stop!) and the 43 to London Bridge (via Holloway Road \u2013 perfect for uni). Muswell has seen some changes: the Giraffe is no longer here (irony at it\u2019s finest if you know anything about me); the O\u2019Neill&#8217;s has been replaced by a Miller &amp; Carter (on the to-go list); and La Porchetta has downsized but still seems as crammed in as ever. I can\u2019t begin to emphasise the history that we have in Muswell\u2026we laughed about some the other night\u2026we\u2019d gone out one night and drank copious amounts of alcohol and agreed for an early start to go and grab day tickets for &#8216;Viva Forever&#8217; (the Spice Girls musical)\u2026we met in Starbucks and Eddie ran straight to the toilet to vomit before finding himself perched on the floor of the tube\u2026there are so many little anecdotes I wish I could share but alas, we would be here for days and as RuPaul would say \u201cain\u2019t nobody got time for that\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Katharine McPhee \u2013 &#8216;She Used To Be Mine&#8217;<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_41880\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6ChtC1ITxno?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"She Used To Be Mine - Katharine McPhee\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/6ChtC1ITxno\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Finally! This is a long time coming! As Katharine waves goodbye to the West End and London she gives us the one thing we\u2019ve all wanted since her announcement of starring in &#8216;Waitress&#8217; &#8211; a recorded version of the token track from &#8216;Waitress&#8217;, \u2018She Used To Be Mine\u2019. The one word for it is beautiful, and I can\u2019t stress how beautiful Katharine\u2019s version is. She doesn\u2019t strictly follow the melody structurally and in context of the show\u2026it\u2019s simply wonderful. Her voice soars over the instrumental so elegantly and profusely and it\u2019s quite a shock to the system that she won\u2019t be here anymore. I\u2019m slightly disappointed at myself for not seeing her in the role a few more times\u2026but alas&#8230;she was so wonderful when I did, and to have had the pleasure of meeting her twice and picturing with her and managing to discuss her music career with her\u2026it\u2019s all that 15\/16 year old boy from Devon would have wanted who listened to her debut album on loop. PS &#8211; If you don\u2019t get goose-bumps listening to this version of \u2018She Used To Be Mine\u2019, then you\u2019re probably heartless.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Kaskade &amp;
