Sinister: Tigermilk Lyrics Need Help - What's The Score?
by Brier Random 20 Oct '98

20 Oct '98

Shit; I have been violated. My "boom-box" got stolen out of my VW bus two nites ago, but that's not the worst of it. Tigermilk was in the cassette player, and TWATTYBUS was in the CD player. Those bastards don't know what they got, and will likely chuck the cluttering software into the garbage, meaning that I have to buy the new album for the second time in the last month (since I never see the CD used, since it's so gewwwd). But on to the issue: We all must have noticed that the lyrics to Tigermilk as posted on the Site are not at all what's being sung in the recording itself, no? Is it because they're going off the official printed lyrics? Whatever the case, I think the lyrics posted should be what is actually being sung in the song (call me old-fashioned). I have (and many others do too, I'm sure) what I feel to be the real lyrics in the proper order to the album called "Tigermilk" (save the last version of the chorus of "Expectations" which says something about "A young tool and you know / You're a star & you'll go far / .....not just people who play guitar / you're on top of the world again") and have corrected all "won't be there to see you go off YOU'RE head", among other corrections. Do you think Kitchen would want to hear our corrections, or is it a case of printing what originally came out on the liner notes as the Original Lyrics? Or am I making too much of it even now? I just want all the young ones to know what they're singing along to..... +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Everybodies favorite new listie, Charlotte claimed: > Hello everyone. I'm a new girl. Please be nice to me. No! HA! Booga booga booga! > > > Someone asked about other bands having copies of Tigermilk. Weelllll.... Weellll...when I hear the word "copies" I think originals, not dubs. Maybe that's just me. > If > we can broaden the matter to just *celebrities*, then I can mention Stewart > Lee. A friend and I (Elizabeth Daplyn, if you can remember her {I'm sure you > can!}) went to see Lee & Herring on tour in April and, afterwards, Liz gave > Stewart a copy of the album. Sweetheart that he is, he was eternally > grateful, and gave her a huge old snog. Bless. Hmmmmmm...someone's gonna get a talkin' to. ;) > > By the way, to the person (Todd?) who was asking after her, she's tootling > about in Oxford at the moment, being a fresher. I'm sure she'll be getting > withdrawal symptoms and will be back soon. She's having a wonerful time and is too busy to bother with the computer as much as she should. Would you be homesick if you were drawing nudes on the first day? Me neither.

Re: Sinister: I Like Edie Sedgwick's Earrings.
by MWaggner＠aol.com 20 Oct '98

In a message dated 98-10-19 00:19:59 EDT, you write: > > Anyway, they were also showing a film of > Andy Warhol, "Outer and Inner Space". So I got to stare at four images of > Edie Sedgwick for half an hour. At one point it struck me that she > reminded me of our very own Isobelle. Maybe its just the hair cut. And > Edie was wearing these really big earrings. They were wonderful. But I > seem to remember that Edie was a bit of a mess in her later years. Didn't > the Cult write a song about her? For all those coming in for the New York > show on Sunday, maybe you can catch the film before the meet-up. There > are showings at 11.30, 12.45, 2, 3.15, and 4.30. No shows Monday or > Tuesday it seems, though. On Madison, at 75th street. > Oh, Edie *was* beautiful -- and there is indeed a resemblance to Isobel, now that you mention it. Hair and I think eyes. The photo on TBWTAS is very "Edie." She was an icon of sorts, in the Warhol heyday, and was sadly destroyed by it all. She didn't reach the same heights of fame as the other Warhol Superstars like Viva, etc., but Warhol was very taken with her, as was Bob Dylan who she believed loved her. There is an excellent book, "Edie: An American Biography" written by Jean Stein and edited by George Plimpton, that captures her life and the times very well. It explores her family, an old-monied WASP clan led by a manic- depressive father -- and its effect on her and hers on them as well. The book was written in an unusual style, as I remember, but it's up in the attic now and I don't feel like wading through crates of books at the moment. I think it is out of print in its original form, but there is a new book in paperback that might be the same, called "Edie: An American Girl." Well worth a read, the original at least. Was Eric Anderson in the movie you mentioned as well? I know he was in something called "Space" with her. Anyone on the list interested in lovely romantic songs sung by a soft-voiced boy with a guitar who seems to worship women might look into his recordings if they can find any. He was a promising "folksinger" of that time, who came close to hitting big, but sadly never quite did. Eric had some involvement with Patti Smith as well, and wrote her a great song called "Wild Crow." He lives in Norway now but still comes to NY each year and performs at the Bottom Line, sometimes with Rick Danko from the Band, sometimes with a funny French Canadian saxophonist. His new recordings aren't as good as the old, I don't think, but "Blue River" is gorgeous, as is "Stages: The Lost Album." The first time I heard a song by him I was immediately captured by it -- it was called "Is it Really Love at All." I can still remember hearing it that first time. Nothing ever grabbed me like that again until I heard IYFS. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

>maybe the way some men >fetishize thin women has something to do with wanting a frail, >child-like >creature, easy to dominate and totally non-threatening. I don't know. i'm not sure how many men feel this way, but i know that my boyfriend does not like stick thin women. he likes girls to have a bit of a figure, because he says it's 'rubenesque'. hmmm. but yeah, i can see how men would want to have a frail girl to control. i know a few guys like that. urgh. i kinda feel the same way, i don't like really thin guys. ok so my boyfriend is a little overweight, i don't care because he is wonderfully cuddly that way. and more comfy to rest my head on his tummy. hehehe. i can't believe how weight is still such a prejudice in today's society. my best friend seems to think that being size 16 means she is horribly overweight. sigh. i WISH everyone could feel happy about who they are. fiona -- if you want me look me up, i don't exist in usual places - belle & sebastian the desk for dana fund: http://dscully.cjb.net irc: #dana_desk on dalnet x-index: http://xindex.cjb.net +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
