Hello, I've sort of felt like posting, but I don't think my life is very sinister-worthy, and there seems to be little to discuss now that the album is out. Aha! But someone had some questions I can answer... Jes asked:
i was recently given a copy of bowlie. i believe its bowlie. its a radio broadcast tho, so it kinda confuses me. and it says 'booley fest at edinburg'. anyway, whats the lovely little song that keeps repeating the word love? i'm horrible and cant remember anymore lyrics yet. is that Rhoda?
Have they ever played Rhoda live, I wonder. No, it's not Rhoda. You will know Rhoda by the immense number of times Stuart sings the word fag. The word love is in the song somewhere, but I know that's not it because I also have a tape of Bowlie. My tape, however, is somewhere I don't feel like looking. Maybe it's Lord Anthony? and she also asked:
i d/led some mp3 that is supposedly by b&s called 'the hour'. it sounds like maybe StuD singing, but i cant tell cos the quality is kinda odd. is it indeed them?
No, I downloaded this too, out of curiosity. It is, in fact, "An Hour Before the Light," by the fantastic Clientele. The one I downloaded was simply entitled 'An Hour.' There's at least one other mis-labelled song on Napster. Sunset somethingorother, and it's actually a Stephin Merritt song. Sunset City maybe. Something like that. There are probably others floating about. Yeah, that should do it for B&S content. My life doesn't bear much description to you all. Mostly I've spent my days writing and recording songs, and then forcing people in #sinister to listen to them on MP3.com. And staying up very late, then getting up late too. Fascinating, I know.
