Surely you can do better than being offended by what is plainly a joke. It's going to get pretty hard writing anything on this list soon if people decide to take offence at things like this.
Yes, it'll certainly be difficult for me. For the record, I meant no harm to seven to eight year olds, neither do I harbour a secret wish to cast aspertions on Stuart Murdoch's lyrics. I was trying to make the point that not everyone sees the same things in the songs, so it's a bit difficult to tailor our postings to the spirit of B&S, whatever that is. Personally I send all my sensitive responses to sunsets and the onset of springtime to the Psychic TV / Throbbing Gristle list instead. I feel they contrast nicely with the endless rantings about pierced knobs. For future reference, nothing I send to the list is intended to wound or distress. I do all my ranting and abusing off the list. Don't I? But I freely admit to being a bit mischievous at times. Back to business: the best happy songs in the world are "Feeling Hot Hot Hot" by Arrow and "Funky Chicken" by Rufus Thomas. I don't share Rod's love of the Spice Girls, but I can dig what he's trying to say. One of my favourite songs at the moment is by a splendid little chap called Aaron Carter, who claims to be having a "crazy little party". He IS about seven to eight years old. Today I attempted to have a B&S experience by paying a visit to a photography exhibition. It was dead good, there was loads of pictures of big hairy bums and a really good one of a cuddly toy factory, which I would like for my living room wall. Lots of other stuff too. I'm glad I'm not a photographer, otherwise I'd be really depressed. Mind you, I did get to use the word "archbishopric" which was nice, and very Belle and Sebastian if you ask me.
