How about the Botanic gardens in Edinburgh, or near Kelvingrove in Glasgow both pretty central in their respesctive cities - for Scotland anyway, and in Glasgow ideal for the Art gallery and public transport (the Clockwork Orange).

Sinister: Warning - do not reply!
by Northy's Labour voting and less evil twin br 06 Feb '98

> we can't due to our capitalist society of f**kheids!!!!! Sorry but this is a load of horseshit. I am fed up with people having a go at people just because they are affluent. People are selfish and do not love each and every man on the street. It is human fucking nature. Rich people are not inherently evil. I hate the way people say this. If you were born in a rich family and brought up by your business man father then you too would grow to own a heartless multinational corporation. The way I see it is that in life you have to ignore all the shit and just find love and then find yourself a cosy corner to enjoy it. Sure, lets get communist and get Belle and Sebastian censored. Please do not reply to the list to this. If you have something to say then just email me. Please don't though 'cause the amount of time it takes me to read the letters on this list is growing :) Did you go in the end Tara? Catatonia were OK. I though they started off badly but got better. Still. Superstar were dull, dull, dull. Derrore looked quite interesting I thought. Too many "bah, bah, bah" and "doh wops" for my liking though. Peace list Northy [said in my college recently concerning politically correct exam papers] is "If Ramnit has 10 curries and eats 7, how many curries has he got left" a racist statement. Should it be worded, "If Ramnit has 10 Bratwursts and eats..............." What is the world coming too? AND WHY IS NO ONE WORRYING ABOUT THE BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS OF DEAR MR SADDAM HUSSEEIN? Read your papers people. Oh....and no offence about the comment Sarah! ______________________________________________________ "Everyday, when I wake up, I thank the Lord I'm Welsh" Cerys Matthews - 1998 ________________________________________________________ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Felt Albums
by Matthew Neimark 06 Feb '98

06 Feb '98

One of my favorite albums in the whole wide world is by Felt. _Forever Breathes the Lonely Word_. It is quite literaly a half-hour of orgasmic mind blowing experience. Listening to it makes me feel as if I were falling through canyons in Utah during the hot summer sun. By the albums climax (Gather Up your wings and Fly.) I'm so engaged. My heart is beating viciously and I feel like entering right into the song. Lawrence is in my head. Martin Duffy is playing the hammond of my soul. I'm soaring above the Arizona desert. Err... perhaps I'm exaggerating. But the fact is that the album is a perfect mix of goth, pop, and country. (Lawrence mastered the steel guitar at this point and John A. Rivers is the master of musical production.) Definitely in my top ten of LPs (including Tigermilk and Toulouse's "The Way the City Stretches."). But go-figure. This album clicked with me. A lot of the other Felt albums I like (and can find stand-out songs even), but nothing near FBTLW, the king of Felt albums. Oh and somebody said that Lawrence never sang "The World is Soft as Lace." They are right. He sang something like, "The softest lace I could touch" in this song. But that's not the point. In "London has let me Down" he sings of the sadness of not being able to find Lawrence. But the song can apply to anything. For me it applies to returning to a certain foreign country in search of a certain lost love...

Sinister: take it off
by bradford 06 Feb '98

06 Feb '98

i'd like to hear barry white do a b&s song. maybe the boy done wrong again or i don't love anyone. better yet, maybe b&s should do a barry white song. yeah. i could see them doing maybe "love serenade" with the trumpet and all. i could see stuart singing "take it off baby take it all off i want you the way you came into the world i don't wanna feel no clothes i don't wanna see no panties and take off that brassiere my dear" of course he'd probably follow it up with a schoolboyish giggle instead of making you want to get nasty. yeah. take it all off. hee hee. all joking aside, barry is one smoove mutha. everyone always speaks of marvin gaye or al green as the men, but i think barry should be right beside them. and i said it a long time ago, i'll say it again, i think b&s would do a stunning version of "frankie lymon" by the weather prophets. taking it off, (taking it all off) -brad ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Good B&S Karma

Even though, like Northy, I've been ignored on this list every time I post (so, I posted a coupla Princess Di jokes...so sue me!) , it's still a lot of fun to lurk and read B&S fan spatterings. Keepin it real, Leslie C. P.S.

Since Leslie Chinea was kind and sweet enough to send me a lovely IYFS poster, and told me to "surprise her" in repaying her, I have decided to make the following offer, in the name of what is right and good and nice: I'll make tapes of Tigermilk for the first 5 US listies to email me privately who are still in need [whoa. Bad syntax]. If you want the 3 Eps on the other side, I can do that for you, too. I usually put Tigermilk on both sides, because it's all you'll want to hear anyway. All I ask in return is that you send me a blank 90 minute tape. Who's game? Love & Dawson's Creek, Paige ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: senile dementia
by mctag＠mcmail.com 05 Feb '98

Ooops, I am a very confused young man. I'd somehow got into my head that the girls in the Blueboy video were in fact Edwyn, James and the others who I can't be bothered to remember cos I'm tired (please don't write in and tell me). Now I sound like a perve cos they *were* girls. Or were they? It's so hard to tell these days. Policeman are getting younger too. This country... This film soundtrack question is getting out of hand, but I must admit I'm pleased to see the wonderful Aki Kaurismaki getting a look in, even if it's an utterly absurd idea. Are you people just writing down the films you like? Not the same thing ... And who is going to Covent Garden tomorrow? That's all.
