Sinister: Swedish outburst!
Ah, tomorrow I'll finally get my copy of the TICKLEME EP (sorry), I can't wait. Two B&S songs I've never heard before! And I'm so curious to find out where the summer actually goes, I've had to stop myself from having a peek at the Jeepster site to read the lyrics, because I want Stuart M's lovely voice to tell me. I do hope he actually gives the answer, maybe B&S have decided to pull a cheap stunt to sell a few more copies and never give the answer, and the next EP will be called "The Meaning of Life" or "Where Socks Go When You Do Your Laundry" or something? Oh, I'm completely forgetting my outburst. I'VE HAD IT!!! What on earth does "natch" mean?!?!??? Everybody keeps using it and I don't have a clue. Please, please, help a poor non-anglophone with an insufficient dictionary. Send your answer in the form of an email or record an EP entitled "What Natch Means". Helplessly, Anna :) P.S. You probably all know this, and will yawn in a matter of words, but the other day when I was watching A Bout de Souffle I realised that B&S have put a bit of the dialogue ("Ne bouge pas ou je te brûle", or something like that) between Pocketbook Angel and London Has Let Me Down Again. I completely lost my concentration from that nice pic as I was trying to place where I'd heard the quote so many times, and then this little lightbulb lit in my head and I could return to the film... +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".

so there i am, in the local MVC store buying a copy of Rebecca on vid for the duchess, and a Count Basie CD for me dad, when i glance across at the 'Christmas Selections' rack, and lo! i spy the familiar green glow of you know what. I go over and take a peer, just to make sure, and it is indeed the record by the ones we love and cherish. Directly beneath it was the Billie CD. I thought it was funny and cool. And for our american and other worldly fans who may not know who, or indeed what, a Billie is, well... i cannae be arsed explaining. i hate the Narnia/Tolkien crap. It's all fairy bollocks, isn't it? All those bloody elves and goblins and trolls and shit. BORING. Oh yeah, and you can take that as proof that I WAS NEVER A GOTH. honest, that was all just horrid gossip. who said that in the first place? some glasgow boot wasn't it? Probably Amanda Rin thingy cos i slagged her off, poor wee petal. I don't like the new bis record, but i don't think it's because of my gender, more because it's a boring record. I did dye my hair dark once though. It was Jamaica. I looked a tit, but this was well after i left glasgow so no-one there would ever know. Possibly. And so what if i DO have a Sisters LP? It's the gatefold sleeve you know... got it in Troon Menzies for a couple of quid a LOOOOONG time ago. But i wasnae a GOTH. EVER. Sad that Beth has gone. :-( i know how she feels, i've lost count of the times i've been on and off this list. Sigh. I love spotting movie or spoken word samples in songs... they happen really unexpectedly too. Like i walked into the Dram studio one day last year and there was the video of Frankenstein playing and i hear a line, and i'm WHOA! so THAT'S where the sample comes from. It's about safeguarding life and property. Thing is i can then never remember what fucking SONG it goes with. Oh well. I always try and stick some dialogue in my songs, although that may just be because i cannae sing. i am going to shut up now. keep the faith, the duke ------------------------------------------ 'all of our dreams are dying of overdoses' ------------------------------------------ Tangents On-Line http://www.tangents.co.uk PO Box 102, Exeter, EX2 4YL, UK tangent@lineone.net ------------------------------------------ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
