Various people at various times have mentioned Century of Fakers being a rehash of Century of Elvis (fair enough, one of these was Nick Hornby, and what would he know!!!), and I don't want to sound like a trainspotter, but ... ... has anyone else noticed that if you listen VERY VERY carefully to Elvis, you can hear the words to Fakers being sung after the intro and before the spoken word bit begins - as if the mics on the instruments are picking up some of the vocals, despite the fact that they've been dubbed out -- if you see what I mean. Is that conclusive evidence that Elvis is a rehash of Fakers, and not the other way round? Also, why would Century of Elvis be called Century of Elvis if not for the fact that is is a different version of Century of Fakers.
The best proof i reckon, would be that the song structure of CofF fits far better than CofE. The bits with harmonies sound as if the song had originally been written as CofF. But, i can't be sure because some so-called friend of mine has run off back to University with my CD's of IYFS, DonW & LLPJ. Take Care, Love & Rage, Nick.
