what is Rediffusion?? it's something that's been bothering me for a while now. is it a shop of some sort, as it sounds like it from the rest of the lyrics? ...plus, that ties in with lots of the other song lyrics (Marks and Spencer, C&A, Debenhams, Boots, Littlewoods, the list goes on...) any bets as to what'll be the next 'high street store' reference in a b&s song? hope to see some of you lovely people tomorrow at the london picnic rob x ------------------------------------------------------------------------- + / \ St Theresa's calling her | O | The church up on the hill _______| _ | Is looking lovely / / /\ | __| \/.

i think i'll stick with the printed version of most of the lyrics you've mentioned here... but there are some truly undeniable alterations of the printed versions. most noatable to me is in "seeing other people", where we see: you're going to have to change or you're going to have to go with girls you might be better off at least they know what they're doing but we hear the infinitely more scandalous: you're gonna have to change or you're gonna have to go with girls you'd be better off at least they know *where to put it* this is the version on the album as well as the bbc (radcliffe?) sessions i have heard. seamus On Sat, 2 May 1998, Yaz wrote:
