Sinister: Seeing Double?
by Lucy Alder 27 Aug '03

27 Aug '03

Dear Sinister This is a very short post (slap wrist) but it's chock full of content. Specifically, the new album cover shown on mtv.com http://www.mtv.com/bands/az/belle_sebastian/353763/album.jhtml is different from the one shown on amazon.co.uk http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B0000C84MZ.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg So which is the real one? Or are there different US/UK versions that we'll need to fork out for? Huh?

Sinister: Piazza, New York Catcher - Exclusive!!
by robin stout 27 Aug '03

27 Aug '03

I found this little review of the new Belle and Sebastian album, where it mentions a few interesting things, notably the song "Piazza, New York Catcher": http://www.parasol.com/catalog/newcart.asp?zoomtitle=65663&RRETURN=words%3D… On the basis of this article I thought I'd "imagineer" and "makeupify" the lyrics to Piazza, New York Catcher. I think it goes something like this: :::::::::::::::::::::::: Piazza, New York Catcher ++++++++++++++++++++++++ You're the pitcher, I'm the catcher, You're John Major, I'm Margaret Thatcher. Why don't you come over to Number Ten? We can watch Bergerac on the telly. I'll never get over, Our night in Kidderminster. You're my Chancellor, I'm your Prime Minister. Why don't I come over to Number Eleven? We can watch Columbo on the telly. <<10-minute tuba and castanet solo>> Forget about Norma, I'll forget about Dennis. But I'll never get over, The size of your hampster. Why don't we fly over to New York? We can stay in and have a pi(a)zza. <<Sound of schoolboys baiting badgers to fade..>> :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I like this song a lot. It showcases the band's new thrash-metal sound. I'm not sure about the tuba solo, though. I blame Trevor Horn. On the radio yesterday evening (or "morning" as you call it in America - ha ha! You crazy yanks!!) I heard B+S on the radio. They were ace. Especially ace were the full version of Scooby Driver and Lord Anthony. Unfortunately, Lord Anthony still doesn't appear to have the verses about the naughty dog, but it still sounds good. You know, I reckon Lord Anthony is at least seven years old. He'll be in long trousers soon. Robin x _________________________________________________________________ Tired of 56k?

Hello Sinister, Still coming off my B&S high this past week. I was wondering if anyone has documented the shows either by audio, video, or photos (digital or real) that people are willing to share. Of course, I will fully reimburse any out-of-pocket costs you might incur. Please e-mail! Thanks guys!

Hello, Crikey, you lot like a fight don't you. I haven't been offended by anything I've read so far. It's a bit of a laugh really. I wasn't unhappy that day, I didn't care if I did the sex thing with Sarah or not. It didn't matter. I just melted away to those beautiful words. Can we all agree on beautiful words? I was unhappy though. I was unhappy that I couldn't bring back those innocent days of my youth. Treasure them kids, you'll be unhappy when you lose them too. Here are some more beautiful words; Shakespear's: "What's in a name? that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet;" So twee, indie, chamber pop. It don't matter. Love it like you love your partner. Love to you all, each and every one. I'll see if my friend James will burn A CD for all you who have asked for a tape. Bye Paulo PS - I like lots of other music too, anyone into: Filthy Acid Techno - Hmm Liberator DJ's, Big Beat (a bit), Indie, Old Indie (Smiths, Echo and the Bunnymen), Manchester (Stone Roses, Mondays), Banghra, Roysopp, Air, Some French rapping is really cool, fogotten the names though, other stuff I can't remember? I used to like a splash of Iron Maiden, but I was about 13. I bloody hate Pop Idol though. Jimi Hendrix would never have been picked. _________________________________________________________________ Sign-up for a FREE BT Broadband connection today! http://www.msn.co.uk/specials/btbroadband +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Lord Anthony - Exclusive!!
by robin stout 26 Aug '03

26 Aug '03

Hullo, it's me again. Will people get upset if I post the lyrics to Stay Loose? I'll mark the email with BIG LETTERS if you're trying not to open your presents till christmas. I was trying too as well, but I lasted about five seconds. For anyone who doesn't know the lyrics for Lord Anthony, we had a go at working them out a few years ago. The first attempt was by Chris "Bendy" Leonard: >Lord Anthony, your little dog >Keeps trying to lick my face >It's a disgrace yes a disgrace. >Trained dogs should not jump on boys >Are you stupid? >You're not fit to have a dog Lord Anthony. It eventually turned out that Christopher's version was spot on, except for the bit about the dog. Peter "Windy" Miller had a go with this: >------------------------------------------------ >Ladybird pants and socks and vest, >My mum buys them, she knows best, >Clark's shoes shiny, scuff-proof, have you seen? >I had to go on the tickly foot measuring machine, >My smart new trousers, it's plain to see, >Were made for poofters by Lord Anthony! > >Lord Anthony, Lord Anthony, >Helped by gnomes and a little fairy! >Lord Anthony, Lord Anthony >Reasonable prices, but not for free! >------------------------------------------------- These were also very close to the real lyrics, apart from the verse and the chorus. I wonder what the proper lyrics are. Hmmm. Hmmmmmmm.... Oh! They're here: http://www.missprint.org/sinister/lyrics.html bye!

Sinister: more B&S fantasy lyrics
by idleberry 25 Aug '03

25 Aug '03

hey folks two posts in as many days... you lucky lucky things. Inspired by Robin's post, I thought I'd throw my hat into the ring. When I saw the track listings for the new album, one of the song titles stuck out, and reminded me of another song. Until the album is released, I thought I'd just sing the new B&S song to the tune of the old song. Feel free to join in if you know what song I'm talking about. ******************************************* "(I Believe In) Travellin' Light" I believe in travellin' light I believe in travellin' light Wheels are made for rollin' Mules are made to pack I never seen a sight that didn't look better lookin' back I believe in travellin' light Mud can make you pris'ner and The plains can make you dry Snow can burn your eyes But only people make you cry Home is made for comin' from For dreams of goin' to Which, with any luck will never come true I believe in travellin' light I believe in travellin' light Do I know where hell is? Hell is in hello Heaven is goodbye forever It's time for me to go I believe in travellin' light I believe in travellin' light When I get to heaven Tie me to a tree Or I'll begin to roam And soon you'll know where I'll be I believe in travellin' light I believe in travellin' light ******************************************* I think it works rather well, you may agree. i thank yew idles ===== http://groups.yahoo.com/group/corduroysmoke/ starting playground gossip and passing notes __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Sinister: Dear Catastrophe Waitress - Exclusive!!
by robin stout 25 Aug '03

25 Aug '03

Yesterday a waitress gave me a mango. Inspired by said waitress and said mango I decided to have a go at working out the lyrics to Dear Catastrophe Waitress. Dear Catastrophe Waitress +++++++++++++++++++++++++ Waitress, I love your knees, Your earl grey teas, Your chintz and gingham charms. When I wanted spaghetti, You came over to serve me, Carrying plates all up your arms. <<10-minute maracas solo>> I thought, thought that you loved me, When you gave me extra hot water with my pot of tea, But what came next was a catastrophe: You didn't give me spaghetti, no, You gave me a shepherd's pie instead, Yeah, a shepherd's pie instead. <<Stuart reads a passage from 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe', over the sound of a dog being dipped into a bucket of paint>> Dear catastrophe waitress, I don't love you anymore, Dear catastrophe waitress, I want a refund. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I think this will be my favourite song on the album. Not so sure about that maracas solo, though. I blame Trevor Horn. r x ps: Today is Stuart Lee Murdoch's birthday. I've decided to bake him a cake and send it to him in an envelope. He'll love that. I think it must be sinister's birthday soon. Maybe we could have a party and hire a naked lady to jump out of a big cake. _________________________________________________________________ On the move?
