Helloooooo popkids. i was tempted to send in another missive today with the sole intention of plonking myself firmly in Digest No.300 (yay!), but realised that would be a bit tragic. So, i have a very specific reason for posting. Oh yes. Very specific. Ummmmm...... Hold on. Something will come to me in a minute. (sigh) AHHHHHAAAA!!! Yes, this christmas carol malarkey - wot a pile of toss. Which one are they doing again? Something with 'Come' in the title wasn't it? Dearie dearie me. Should have done Silent Night in honour of their touring schedule. Well, either way, I'm disappointed. you're an intermittently wonderful songwriter Stu m'lad so there's no need to cover some mad Christian propaganda song. I think it's duty to step into his velvet slippers and come up with a sinister carol( i knew a sinister carol once, i think she's a hairdresser now). Base it on the true spirit of Xmas, i.e. drinking, eating, partying, inappropriate fumblings and Jimmy Stewart. And let's keep it vaguely content based so we don't get a Millbankian slap on our collective limp wrist. So, if you're up to the challenge submit a verse or two, and try to fit it to the tune of a well known, extant carol. That way we can force Carsmiles to sing it and he won't be able to excuse himself for not knowing the tune. (Not that it would stop him anyway). tata 4 now. a. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
