 it just me (I really shouldn't begin with that as most of
 the time it simply elicits the ever-so-predictable answer
 of 'yes'), or has anybody else ever encountered the
 following: you've been given a tape with a certain song on
 it, and then you buy the album that the song has been
 lifted from. On listening to the album, you hear the tune
 in question. The tune ends, and you start singing the next
 song from the tape you've been given, and not the album.
 Thus making, if you are in company, what is commonly known
 in the business as a right tit of yourself. Oh, the amount
 of times I have unwittingly disappeared down that road. >>


I'll voice public support by saying, yes yes yes, i have done that very 
thing. and a right tit describes exactly what I was. I feel like we should 
form a sub-group in the mailing list for this, as I was deeply traumatized 
and to this day, i pause after a song like that plays, just because i don't 
want to fuck up and sing the wrong tune after it. This is most often the case 
with brit-pop, as my friend erin made me two tapes that alternated hit groups 
like spiritualized, blur, and pulp with hard rockin girl bands like Huggy 
Bear or Sleater-kinney. Shrieking "surf song" isn't what i would call the 
best follow up to "sorted out for e's and whizz"

ok, that's enough of that
