western values mean nothing to her

one never expects while humming 'shack up' in a parking lot after breakfast that one will be dancing to it at an appropriate volume after dinner [without having to request it or change the record oneself], but these things happen.

is it just me, or is everything--everything--aligning lately...?

At this point will you even believe me if I tell you that I was listening to "Shack Up" just this morning? Well, it's true anyway. If you tell me you have the Gap Band on right now I'll know you're stalking me!

oh wow, she is beyond good and evil is one of my favorite songs ever

if you haven't checked out the 'in the beginning there was rhythm' comp, i'm highly recommending it. shack up is on there too, along with this heat + the slits

i'm glad things are aligning, and that setlist is mindblowing, right down to picking the correct magazine track...

i heard it thru the bass-line! fashmagslag April 8 2003, 05:22:21 UTC
yesssss, such a good compilation. my love for the pop group is a little backwards, as it stemmed from infatuation with the teardrop explodes' demo version of 'sleeping gas'[which rips off its bassline]. but oh, this song! such howling + bone-rattling + echo.

delete everything ever if i'm mistaken, but was it you who considered naming a band auto-da-fé?

oh julian cope!! i seriously need both hands to count all the bands that rip off the pop group. gogogo airheart does a decent cover of trap, though...

and yes! i am INDEED the one with auto-da-fé, why do you ask?

of course it was you. fashmagslag April 9 2003, 05:50:28 UTC
becaaaause i meant to mention it ages ago, but somewhere around here i've got a song by an eighties band called auto-da-fé called 'all is yellow [hot, hot, hot]'...they're sort of twee, almost; they sound like dislocation dance or the belle stars or something. matters not, of course, it's all yours now....

Have you heard Bis' cover version of Shack Up? It's cute, came out early last year on their Fact 2000 ep if I remember rightly xx

heh, i will track down an mp3 for you. (they covered love will tear us apart, too). you know they've just split up though? recently played their final ever gig in london, i think.

oh. fashmagslag April 8 2003, 05:52:23 UTC
i've heard that one,
but didn't know they'd called it quits, no.

they've always had good timing, haven't they?
remember when 'skinnytie senssuround' didn't sound like a foregone conclusion?
actually, your geography might've prevented that effect a little....
