Hello, Oh well, I was going to join in the fun of the "black music" debate, but the latest digest just arrived and you've done it all for me. I feel like someone walking in on a pub brawl. Cynthia wrote:
I've got this thing for the brazilians.
Maybe you or Ivo can help me out here then. I heard an amazing Brazilian record at a friend's house recently, it's just called "Baby", and it's by one of those people like Gal Costa or Os whatever. It's a girl singing and it's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, just pure sunshiney Latin-tinged pop. I gather it's part of a four CD boxed set thing that costs about 60 pounds, but I was wondering if it was available in err...less bulky (and expensive form). Ivo, if you can help me, I may even overlook you publically eyeing up my girlfriend. And you too, Mr so-called Miller. I'm sorry, I couldn't resist this. Il Duce said:
Pop mistakes are just NOT the Duke's bag.
but then said:
St Etienne were in fact a one time marvelous Pop combo who too often were only mediocre, but hey, what the hell.
Note the use of the past tense here. I think maybe rumours of The Et's death have been greatly exagerrated. You shouldn't believe everything you read in the music press, you know. But Duke, your error made you look human, and you know what...it suited you. Sarahpoo wrote:
OH WELL THANK YOU MISTER MILLER! I have not seen Heavenly Creatures! >I was notified from chat about your lovely observation, and told the character that you mention is boring, dull, drab, and a psycho. Thank you.
Actually Sarah, not only is "Heavenly Creatures" a smashing film, but the character in question is truly intense in her intenseness. In fact, the intensity of her intenseness makes Kate Winslett look little more than a SHALLOW FASCIST. I thought she was dead ace, actually. Peter was paying you a compliment. Oh, Peter, you'll be happy to know that I am a right bleeding ponce and I've seen "Strawberries and chocolate" and so I got your joke. Oh sod this, I'm going to Sweden.
