OK I've been scared to put this out to the list, but I now think its
time has come: Century Of Fakers reminds me of REM slightly.  I think
it's the backing vocals, the interval between the notes or something is
very characteristic of Mike Mills' BVs for those wacky Georgians.
It's just little sections of songs which remind you of others.  It's not
as if any B&S song is lifted wholesale from anyone else's (or their own)
works of art.  It is, however, interesting to see what connections other
people make between the muzak we all so adore and other stuff.  We're
all happy bunnies and I'd like to stay that way.  

                              ByeBye,
                                           Liz

Love without hope, as when the young bird-catcher
Swept off his tall hat to the squire's own daughter,
So let the imprisoned larks escape and fly
Singing about her head, as she rode by.
