FUCK!!!!! Dirty Dream #2 is the best song I have heard in my whole life! I'm trying to type and not scream all at the same time! Now I know what Teenyboppers feel like! I hadn't heard it before, except in London, and all I could hear then was Fred and Stuart G's 'version' of it in my left ear. This would be the best single in pop history. It has Top of the pops running through it like a stick of rock! What! a! lot! of! exclamation! marks! Impatient for my promised cd of TWATYBUS, and desperate to get B&S in the top 5 even if I have to buy every copy myself, I got the Heavy-duty hugeo-bastardo vinyl today, and god, this really is a great album. I no longer have any doubts. Except for Chickfactor which is still p!i!s!h! but even that's growing on me.

At all. I did wonder what relation these oiks had to the very civilized regular staff :-) God, sorry about the naughty word at the beginning. I got a bit carried away. But then that's my honest reaction to the song, and I stand by it. TWATYBUS is an outstandingly good album, and if B&S split up today, I doubt we'll hear anything better ever again. It's only an opinion. But I have to admit, it's one I hold rather strongly. seb <who still finds it funny to play records at 78.Rollercoaster Ride too long?
