That IS a revelation to me, that Sarah sings on Waiting for the Moon to Rise and not Isobel (confusion can result from sparse sleeve notes). Hmmn. Two things arise from this. Firstly, I had been picturing (and almost falling in love with) the wrong girl when listening to that song. Sarah has shot up in my estimation, having previously just been a background figure. Secondly, I am glad, as I can go back to disliking Isobel Campbell intensely, safe in the knowledge that my disposition towards her is based on musical grounds in the first instance. But I suppose cussing her is old hat. I made another mix-up regarding Isobel, which involved her lyrics. At first I thought she was singing 'I would rather be fat AND be confused' rather than 'I would rather be fat than be confused'. I prefer the lyric I misheard. If she would rather be fat and confused (which she may well be in real life, though she strikes me as a rather sussed person) this suggests an arch, more B and S take on the world. The latter, actual lyric seems more like a straight-forward mantra against eating disorders. I suppose that's life affirming though. dougal *all the purists are tourists* _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
