And then someone suggested that SM must have been drunk when he wrote "Hurley's Having Dreams" The cheek! No doubt he would class it as emabarrassing juvenilia now, but I think I like it best of all the Stow demos. Oh dear, it looks like I'm trying to score points on Peter Miller's B&S-snob-o-meter.

Now she's eight months pregnant/In her dress she's so elegant Does a handstand maybe/No, it's not good for the baby...... Clip-clop clip-clop Hisssssss........

'Does a handstand maybe'! God, i've been trying to figure that line out for ages! Thank-you, my good man, for that. Any chance of a complete lyric for that song, as it's quite tricky to make it out (well it is on my copy, anyway). And yes, i agree with you, it is a fabulous song, right from it's beatles-esque beginning through the wonderful slightly off beat tambourine playing, with that fantastically cheap sounding toys r us organ playing towards the end. sheer genius i say. it makes me think of campfires for some reason - i can picture them sitting around playing a cheap guitar and tambourine, singing along as night sets in, just before an impromptu rendition of 'he's got the whole world in his hands' or something... or maybe i'm only dreaming. actually, i'm rather partial to 'london has let me down' despite the fact that it sounds alarmingly like 'jingle bells' played on a crap £29.99 yamaha keyboard, with a choice of 49 exciting instruments (including wave, machine gun, telephone, you know the sort) i reckon they used the same keyboard for the drum machine in 'electronic renaissance'. just my tuppence worth... rob ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
