Re: Sinister: mishearings
Hello, I always thought in "Seeing Other People" the words "Your kissing your double, your kissing your reflection" were sang instead of "Your kissing your elbow etc.". I thought it was about these skinny long hair boys who go to discos and get stuck into skinny long hair girls who look the same as them. And It got me thinking is it incredibly vain to be attracted to someone who looks like you, or is it worse to think you can do better. I just read that. I know what I mean. Anyway, the person who said the trumpet from "Dog On Wheels" is like "Alone Again Or" by Love is spot on. It sounds like B & S have tried to do the same things with the guitar flurries throughout the song. Stuart Murdoch's voice occasionally reminds me of the Incredible String Band. This is initially what attracted me to B & S. I'm off Chris ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Hello, I always thought and so have all of my friends that the lyrics to, "Seeing Other People" were about being gay, or at least toying with the idea. It seems to be a little story about two young boys and the idea of homosexuality and its presence in young boys that is so often hidden. Its all about experimentation. I could be wrong, what does everyone else think? Nicholas ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .
