Philippe, returning from a long absence, purred: <color><param>0000,0000,0000</param>> I know that what I will say sounds silly but... please could you avoid
speaking about the new single until I get it by the end of the week.
</color>Sorry, Philippe, I'd like to but I have to say something. Firstly to all those people who've been saying horrible things abouth 'The Gate' - well, you're all wrong, wrong, wrong! It's the most singalong thing they've ever done by my measurements and that's surely a good thing.. Oh, and the lead track itself, well, what can I say? W!O!W! wouldn't even begin to describe it - a whole page full of W!O!W!s wouldn't either. Imagine the stars in the night sky re-arranged to spell W!O!W! and then times that by 7 to get the effect. 'I Know wher the summer goes' - Hmmn, not bad... 'Slow Graffiti' - As good as ever, but I'm far too used to it to make a judgement now. <color><param>0000,0000,0000</param> And please people, I get enough cultural studies crap on my course, I don't want it taking over sinister like the vile growth it is. As far as I care, It's about art and beauty and truth and if anyone tries to talk to me about countercultures and the dominant social ideology I'll put my fingers in my ears and sing LALALALA until they stop. Got that? Whare was I? Oh yes, philippe also trilled:</color>
Do you want to know my favourite CD of the year ? Frankly, I
hope you don't, because I don't like this word "favourite", neither
the "year" concept.
Well done, I couldn't have put it better myself. Art's not a competition. But the Pulp album wasn't bad. Be good, WeeJay xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx PS - Is this a baaaad translation, Philippe? Blame babelfish: " Tears on its cheeks, and it is my heart which cries, Its lips on my cheek, and I cry of happiness" <nofill> James@twopounds.u-net.com "I know there's a lot of bass players in the audience tonight, I know living amongst the constructions that the people in power have built doesn't feel so right" mAKE UP - "We Can't Be Contained" http://www.geocities.com/sunsetstrip/cabaret/5523/ (Which will no longer crash your computer.
