The story seems to be going a bit by the wayside doesn't it? Hello Sinister Siblings, with luck your Happy Sappy Day is happy enough. Peter Miller had this to say and it could use repeating: "Thanks for all the moral guidance we've been having. I must remember to pass it on to any ten year olds I bump into. You don't need me to vote for you to know that I think you're special," Cheers to Peter for that, though I did snip off the "upstairs" bit, sinister boy he is. I'm afraid the only moral advice I have to share is to wash behind your ears and wear clean underwear, because you really never know do you? I shouldn't have to tell you all how nice and such you are right? and no one wants a mercy vote do they? My list crush vote is staying right where it is thank you very much, my crush has been most wonderful to me. Yes, I even know who it is and even was one of the beautiful Miss Crush's matches. Random B&S content: I really, really don't like "Boy done wrong again". Not even the Black Sessions version. I dislike it even more than "Electronic" from Tigermilk. Anyone else have a B&S song they just actively don't care for? Cheers to Lovely Llew for introducing me to the joy that is the Elephant Six Collective, more brilliant stuff I had never heard of. I also must add I'm happy to have converted someone from the list to my personal favorite band K's Choice. Oh, B&S is next in line I promise you, but K's holds a special place in my heart. Massive cheers to the wonderful and lovely Erica on her last posting for having the only post in a month to actually make me laugh out loud. Yes, it is a "bunch of arse" and all the rest of that. Hmmmm, I may have to take her advice about "Playground Love", would Miss Scarlet lead us wrong? Someone mentioned Joy Division and so I thought I'd share this from Zen Entertainment: "Danny Boyle's expected feature about the Manchester music scene may be a biopic on the band JOY DIVISION, which became NEW ORDER after frontman Ian Curtis hung himself" Personally, I never really cared for Joy Division, though I did like some of New Order's stuff. At the risk of being lynched I must say Morissey just annoyed me. zoe mentioned her friend who didn't like B&S because it was too happy...well, I guess some people like being unhappy, maybe it makes them feel more relevent. Having been down in the dark places myself for a time I'm afraid I still can't see the attraction. Oh, but I must say that Pink Floyd had their moments. Even though I like Floyd my favorite album is the one many never heard of, The Final Cut. Speaking of slightly depressing bands, I've been listening to Black Box Recorder's "England made me" of late and I must say it's damn fine stuff. More random B&S stuff: does anyone know if the tab/lyrics/music book will include the odds and ends such as Paper Boat? I know the ep's are going to be in it but what about those poor homeless songs? Looking back I see this post prolly isn't as funny/filthy/relevent/twee/etc as it could/should be so all apologies for not passing the test, I was never very good at grandstanding. Be Sinister children... Jim "Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it"- Black Box Recorder, "England Made Me" "If you like music more than life, something's wrong. If you think that this song matters, somethings wrong"-K's Choice, "Something's Wrong" +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
