Hello (Goodbye) Sandy Allen

By Nick Hodge | August 14, 2008

Sandy Allen passes away.

Hello Sandy Allen

The World’s Tallest Woman

We made friends in New York

I do hope you remember

I’m bound to say I felt uneasy

When I first laid eyes on you

But I liked the way you talked

Like a live-in-hoper

Towering over our heads

In more ways than one

(Neil Finn, Sandy Allen)
