It needs to be something quirky and something which would be anathema to "the starmaker machinery behind the popular song". I bought a BMX bandits record once (shhh!) which had a little cartoon strip inside and someone had handwritten in pen on my copy "I love you very very much". I liked the personal element of this. I guess BMX Bandits sold a lot less records than B&S are going to be selling ... maybe it would be wholly impractical! Here are some other ideas. 1. Bring back seventies car stickers! ELO did it, why not B&S? There should be a B&S sticker in the back of every car in the kingdom. 2. Willy Wonka style "Golden CDs", 500 of which (e.g.) have a ticket inside entitling the holder to a trip to, er, the Grosvenor Cafe... 3. Free flowers with every purchase. 4. Free tickets for next B&S gig. 5. Lifetime membership of Rolf Harris fan club. 6. "Introduce a friend" discounts and bonus system. 7. That's all. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .
