Uh... Well I knew I had SOMETHING else to say that wasn't plugging something... Oh well, pardon the double-post, if you please... Aranzazu Sanz-Garcia wrote:
Have B&S played some covers in their gigs or whenever apart from 'poupee de cire...' and' Reel around the Fountain' ?
Indeed they have. Forgetting some of the titles, there was "Turn, Turn, Turn," not originally done by the Byrds, but I think that was the version they patterned their cover after. Then this past US tour they debuted an R.E.M. cover of some sort. Forget the title. At Manchester they did a cover of Orange Juice's "In a Nutshell," with Isobel on vox. Can't say it was an improvement on the song, from what I've heard, but then how could you? They also did some versions of the Velvets' "Mirror," which was originally sung by Nico, and then there were covers of the Left Banke (I'd still like to hear that one!) and Beck. I seem to recall another cover...but it's slipping my mind. I also heard they recorded a cover of a Felt song with an ink polaroid spoken word-ed overtop, instead of vocals. I don't think they've done that live, though. When are we going to hear Love & McCarthy covers? Perhaps they'll do a Love song (haha) when they play in LA on the west coast tour? Also, when will we hear a cover recorded & released? Oh, I suppose they're one of those bands that doesn't record covers (sigh). /"\_/"\_/"\ Mick McMick - bp224995@ohiou.edu - ICQ#5056758 \ / Sandcastle Records - (same e-mail for now) | | Sandcastle Homepage - | | http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Amphitheatre/4972/ | | "I am always wishing to make people | | in the world happy with my smiles." | | - Mr. Friendly +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
