My only reaction at the publication of "Shine on" was indifference
(remember that non-english speaking people are forced to write e-mails in 
their native language, which sounds pretty much like English anyway)

Actually I'm aware of many foreign P!O!P! enthusiasts who tend to put the
lyrics at the top of their evaluation scale, including Italians ...
naturally the music makes an artist interesting in the first place, but
following that I for one consider the lyrics as the most important issue.
The House Of Love never passed the first threshold ... but sometimes artists
like, for example, The Legend! compensate the weakness at the first
threshold by writing excellent lyrics ... talking about B&S content. §;^D

Seriously speaking, please respect the purpose of this list and stop talking
about Gay Chagrin ...

The rain it raineth on the just
And also on the unjust fella
But more upon the just because 
The unjust steals the just's umbrella
