Hello smutsters. If anyone wants to know where the summer goes, then I can exclusively reveal that it's here in the rightermost corner of the Mediterranean. I'll do my best to bring it with me to the London picnics at the weekend. If you're going to one or both of them - and let's face it, you should be - then take a minute to leave a little message on the board so we can get the atmosphere started. Have a look, there's even an easy peasy lemon squeezy link here: belleandsebastian.co.uk/cgi-bin/mboard/belle/thread.cgi?272,0 In I Know Where The Summer Goes, I thought that "I know where the summer dwells/ When your underarm smells" was "I know where the summer dwells/ When you're under our spell". The concept of context (try saying THAT 3 times quickly [*] ) is again blatantly disregarded and overruled by the conviction that the mishearing "sounds good". Well it does. And while we're on the subject, the first time I heard Music Sounds Better With You, I thought the "Love might bring us back together" line was "Last night we slept together". [*] Incidentally, how much wood WOULD a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? My computer was sick for nearly a week and now it's better you're all bored of the threads I wanted to add to. So I shall be brutally selective and just pick the "what to do if you're depressed" subject (which somehow turned into "what to listen to- or not- when you're depressed"). Michael Head and the Strands talk about "Things that get you/ when you're alone/ they try to break you/ forgetting you're stoned". You could take that as the go-ahead to get so high you can't feel the pain, but a better solution, if only temporary sometimes, is simply to go out with your friends. It's especially helpful to get yourself around people who dispense hugs at the slightest hint something is wrong. Nine times out of ten a heartfelt hug will not fail to make you feel at least a little bit better. And that's my tip of the day. I accidentally thought up a Belle & Sebastian -related competion but I'll tell you about that next time. Natasha xx _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
