simplethings is my Favourite b&s song, and i also often consider these lines and what they could mean. on the one hand, you just got to appreciate their beauty. but on the other hand, i don't know what scotland is like, and not to be a presumptuous and stupid american, but when i was in england, the sky was always a lovely shade of slate grey (i'm not being facetious; i really do love a grey sky). so i always think of wind being grey in england. that works for me... as far as LLPJ goes, i was actually thinking (while i was driving for 8 hours from pittsburgh to newyork (don't fall asleep...) the other day) what the song could be about. not to be smutty, b/c i know how smut is absolutely unacceptable and unwanted on this list, but it occurred to me that it could be about a prostitute. well, reading the liner notes, no. but come on: "a dose of thrush you got when licking railings" "in the mud on yr knees trying hard not to please" "you know a girl who's taxfree on her back" "you'll have a boy tonight..." i don't know -- seems entirely possible. listening to Dressy Bessy right now -- lovely poppy la-la-la stuff. the word bubblegum comes to mind... xoxo, marie _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
