Sorry for the incomplete post. It was meant to ask where I could find the lyrics to the spoken word bit at the end of "I Could Be Dreaming"... something about His Majesty George the 3rd and a Gigantic Word In the Dictionary?

Re: Sinister: Nutella!!
by User864786＠aol.com 17 Oct '98

Fellow B&S followers: I, too, am a big Nutella gobbler. I bought some of the brown goo a year ago and haven't turned back since. It goes well on almost anything made of bread, i.e., shortbread cookies, toast, english muffins, french bread, etc. Also, it tastes really good on a big, ripe, delicious banana. Yummy! Speaking of Yummy, has anyone out there ever heard of the band by the name Yum Yum? They are superb. Go out and buy the CD. See ya!

Lord Anthony did do Parkas, but they weren't like the "fish tail" parkas that mods wear. I had an LA one when I was in Primary school, but then most people did at the time. They were great, except when the hood was completely zipped up so that the furry bit covered your face and got in your mouth. As for ridicule, surely dragging people round the schoolyard by the loop thing on the top/back of the hood was much more fun. bye Gary +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Misheard Lyrics
by Girl in the Snow 16 Oct '98

16 Oct '98

I'm really enjoying these and thought I'd share the funniest one I've ever heard. It was several years ago and my friend Alison and I were driving around listening to Catherine Wheel. Black Metallic was on and my friend started singing. "It's the colour of your skin, Your skin is like Nutella" . Instead of your skin is black metallic. Nutella is this really nasty hazelnut and chocolate spread some people put on there bread. It looks really gross. Kinda like a shit sandwich. She swore that was the line even after we laughed histarically at her. My only Belle one was from Me and the Major. I thought he was singing "I want to dance I want to drink a whiskey sour" Mmmm whiskey sours are yummy!

Sinister: Francoise Hardy...a must
by bkim0＠dept.english.upenn.edu 16 Oct '98

16 Oct '98

Hey all. As I'm a new person I was just wondering if anyone has discussed Francoise Hardy at any length. If not, may I humbly recommend her '60s output? Hers is a soothing warm langorous voice stolen by Letitia Stereolab with spare but lush instrumentation behind her, either beautifully folky six and twelve-stringed strum or spare surfy country. Look for collections with "Le Temps De L'amour" and "Rendez-vous D'Automne" (my personal fave). Apparently at one point Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger and a slew of others were obsessed with her. Anyways, name's Benjamin Xavier Kim, pleased to meet you all (though some of you I know already). Giddy like a schoolgirl for next Friday's show...
