Truer than you might have meant, jon. Although Our Price is perhaps an even better example of a CD shop for people who don't know.
What? I think you've lost me - I wasn't sure if they had HMVs outside the UK, so I was just explaining what they were. I don't think I quite understand all this. Our local HMVs sell about 3 vinyls and 2 tapes, but the rest are cds, therefore it is a cd shop. I'm really confused. Our Price only sells Peter Andr�, so we ignore that. A group of Belle & Sebastian fans could be called a gaggle. A Coven. A convent. Who knows. Someone with a thesaurus should find something exciting. ----Original Message----- From: afoley@csc.com <afoley@csc.com> To: sinister@majordomo.net <sinister@majordomo.net> Date: 03 April 1998 10:32 Subject: Sinister: A few torts and tings
<Pigeon Street> I must be far too old to remember this, as it doesn't ring any bells at all, however I should be far too old to remember another programme, but I do, and that one is Trapdoor. Yes!!
Trapdoor? Was that the one where kids walked through this computer-generated maze with all these scary spiders and things trying to kill them? Or have I lost it completely?
These are all fuc... (oops, I almost swore then, must remember there are youngsters about!) excellent tunes and very moving.
Ho ho ho. Us 15 year olds causing more chaos. The thing is that we feel really old, but you think we're really young and we're somewhere in between, I think.
And another thing to our young friends jo(h)n and bethey - You make me feel so old!!!! But I'd like to think if I was 15 today then I'd still be here as I am now, if that makes any sense! There was none of this email malarkey in my day you know!
Ho ho ho ho ho. Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho. Ho ho ho ho ho. More intimidation. -----Original Message----- From: Keith Watson <keith@qss.co.uk> To: sinister@majordomo.net <sinister@majordomo.net> Date: 03 April 1998 10:23 Subject: Sinister: Sleep the clock around
Not often prone to writing things about Belle and Sebastian here but yes "Sleep the Clock Around" (or "Slap my cock around" which I'm prone to calling it) is one of my favourite songs.I only hope the final recorded version comes out as brilliant as the session, as I don't believe I can say that for Dylan in the Movies. I think probably what it misses the most however is some extended guitar workout at the end, a bit of tapping, artificial harmonics and perhaps some whammy bar work too.
NO! That piano is just the best thing ever - even better than the one on Like Dylan In The Movies. Is it Chris playing? Probably - but Stuart M does a bit of piano doesn't he. However, it sounds like Chris - cos it's almost as cool as his flares. I don't think the extended guitar workout is necessary at all - but being a piano artiste, I think I appreciate these fabulous things more than guitar people. He's got about 108 keys he could press and he just presses the right ones at the right time. Nothing short of genius. However, I could be wrong. Right, well I'll see you all later, for my regular second message of the day.
