MARK

Mark Nevin mentions Kirsty in the liner notes of this 2002 album. He thanks a lot of people and towards the end he says: "Lastly, to absent friends everywhere, none more than Kirsty MacColl, so glad we got to have that last dance." Source: TO

BRIAN

The Brian Kennedy album Get on with your short life has the following dedication: "This album is dedicated to dearest Kirsty MacColl who left us too soon xx". Brian was a very good friend of Kirsty's, as well as of one of the fireman who died in New York City during the 9/11 terrorist attack. 

According to Brian, "In a way that's what made me come up with the title track of the album. When something so shocking happens, it makes you realise you never know what's round the corner and how precious your time is. You shouldn't spend it worrying about how tanned you are or whether you're thin enough, you should just get on with it." Source: BP/GAC

GREEN PAJAMAS

We don't know a whole lot about the Green Pajamas, but they recorded a sentimental yet charming tribute to Kirsty back in 2001, called Missing Miss MacColl. It was included on their EP called Essence of Carol, and also a now deleted compilation CD called More Tell Tale Signs of Earworm. Source: PM/AG

"I'm sorry now, that's all, and I miss you ... Miss MacColl"
