Sinister: You and your bloody oranges

[Mctaggart, Robert]

At last!

The question I've been waiting for:

Far from it, Tami.  I've had Swedish blue (no sniggering at the back)
and I have to say it rules.  It's like Danish blue, only better (maybe
cos you can guarantee Peter Schmeichel's relatives were never involved
in it).  There are other kinds of Swedish cheese, you can buy them in
IKEA along with maribou chocolate (God's own chocolate, you know), but
they're more of your bog standard 'slice them up and stick them on your
ryvita for breakfast' variety.  I can't remember what any of them are
called of course.  Elsewhere, I've already sung the praises of Islay
cheese.  Cambazola rocks.  Lancashire smoked cheddar is damn good.  St
Nectaire, Bavarian smoked cheese...the possibilities are endless.

When Pulp went to Sweden, Russell asked the promoter there if he could
try some of the local herring.  The promoter backed away, saying "No,
no, we don't have any of that".  It was only later that Russell realised
the guy thought he'd said 'heroin'.

Uncut, eh?  Anyhoo, the song's "You and your sister" which is a cover of
a Chris Bell (from Big Star) song and one of the best things TMC ever
did, apart from "Song to the Siren" (the "famous" one) which is lovely.
If you're prepared to wade through a lot of Dead can Dance type nonsense
which leans worryingly towards Goth, there's a couple of goodies on the
first LP, and the third one "Blood", That's the one with "You and your
sister" and a couple of other pretty good songs, which I've forgotten
the names of.  I'm no bloody help at all, am I?

My fantasy cover is a particular Canadian girl I met in Glasgow earlier
this year, covered in Swedish blue cheese.
