Oh, apart from Deva's post. Okay, that was good, but sadly it led to the Tatu "humour"...

Tatu lyrics

I am 30, but you're absolutly correct it is cover of Love Spit Love from the Craft and Charmed soundtrack, right?

Oh dear God.

I kind of feel about How Soon is Now, by the Smiths (as I like to call it), the way people feel about Jesus: how do you manage to go through your life without having it as a resource to draw on?

Reidcourchie: do you sometimes feel like there is just a little core of darkness inside you, a little place that the sunshine has never touched, that will never be warmed and healed by the sweet and tender touch of Moz? If so, that is because you do not listen to 'How Soon is Now' often enough. The ideal way to listen to it is at an all-Smiths disco with a lot of other Smiths fans all singing along at the tops of their voices, but lying in awe on your bedroom floor is a good way too. All people must come to Moz in their own way. I am not one to judge.

Hang on... was that on the Craft soundtrack as well? Fucking deadly. It's like the signature tune for all shit witches.

I love the way the edit it at the beginning of Charmed, to suggest perhaps that they are in fact the *sun* and the *air*... possibly realising that a) none of their three female leads is the son of anyone, and b) attempting to suggest that there is any sort of shyness, criminally vulgar or not, about the criminally vulgar Halliwell girls is a bit of a non-starter.

As for the silent ones - suits people registered to read things when the place was locked down and then never used to post, spare trollsuits, trollsuits that were identified by IP address and killed before they actually got to post. Bear in mind that back in the day you could give a totally fictitious email address to register a suit, so the process took seconds - you could just spend an afternoon registering hundreds of suits to take out of mothballs when needed, if you were lonely enough... and some honet-to-goodness lurkers. Hello, lurkers! Please post to Barbelith. It's a great place to share ideas, until Deva finds and liquidates you.

I know perfectly well who wrote How Soon is Now I just like to pretend I don't because I love the two covers but utterly despise the original and anything Smith or Morrisey related, it would have been better if Love Spit Love had done the original. The disco that Deva describes is probably the single best description of hell I could imagine.

I am heartbroken to discover that Deva is not hunting down and "moderating" Smith fans. Not that anybody really likes the Smiths? I mean really, that's just something people say to get a reaction from good hearted people isn't it? Isn't it?

Yes. But you won't find much of that 'saying something outrageous just to get a reaction' stuff here.

That is perhaps the funniest, yet also the saddest, thing I have heard since Annie Jacobsen got the fear.

I always thought Love Spit Love was Richard Butler (ex-Psychedelic Furs)... then I saw their name on one of those TV programmes and thought maybe not... surely Mr Butler wouldn't be doing How Soon Is Now badly... as a LADY???

I've always been too scared to Google for it...

Although I agree with Deva... How Soon Is Now has been a vital resource both for good (cos it's ace and has got me through some bad times) and for ill (cos sometimes it's just encouraged me to wallow, when as it turns out wallowing was just a really bad idea and can occasionally lead to worse things) and as such is REAL fucking important and SHOULD NOT BE FUCKED WITH UNLESS YOU'RE GONNA BRING SOMETHING APOCALYPTICALLY SPECTACULAR TO THE TABLE.

So. New people. How do you feel about How Soon Is Now?

Bear with me. I'm drunk and angry (about something entirely non-board-related). I should not be allowed near a keyboard at the moment, which is why I am smoking a big spliff and going to bed. Angrily.

Stoat I in know way took offence and I hope you didn't either I was just assuming this thread was banyter. Hope things improve rapidly for you.

do you sometimes feel like there is just a little core of darkness inside you, a little place that the sunshine has never touched, that will never be warmed and healed by the sweet and tender touch of Moz?

Y'see, I thought it was the other way round. The only core of darkness in my sunny mien is where I was furtively stroked by the clammy, nervous and fey touch of Mozarella.

I've registered for hundreds of sites I don't use. We have to let the lurkers go gracefully; there's nothing worse than a clingy online resource. (It Takes a Child to Raise a) Village Photos calls me when the pubs shut: "You said you needed space! Then you never wrote, you never uploaded..."

Tatu rock, as do their lyrics - The Russian version of all the things she said is quite different from the English version -

I've lost my mind
I've lost my mind
I need her
I need her
I need her
I've lost my mind
I've lost my mind
I need her
I need her
I need her
I've lost my mind

(Verse 1)
I am all gone
It is very serious
Situation HELP
Situation SOS
I cannot understand myself

Where did you appear form?


The light is shutting down
I am flying somewhere
Without you there is no me
I don't want anything
It is the slow poison
It is making me crazy
But they say it is all my fault
(But they say it is all my fault)

(Chorus)
I've lost my mind
I've lost my mind
I need her
I need her
I need her
I've lost my mind
I've lost my mind
I need her
I need her
I need her
I've lost my mind
I need her
I need her
I need her
...

(Verse 2)
Without you I am not myself
Without you there is no me
But they say, they say
It is delirium
It is poison from the sun
It is making me crazy
But they say it is all my fault
I did try to forget

To the end and down
I did count the poles
And confused birds

Without you there is no me
Let me go, let me go
To the corner and down
Mom, Dad forgive me

(Repeat chorus)

(Verse 3)
1,2 go after 5
Mom, Dad forgive me
I've lost my mind

1,2 go after 5
Mom, Dad forgive me
I've lost my mind

Sorry

Girly girl music. I suppose you like to listen to it with a bunch of lilies clasped to your chest, swooning in the manner of a pre-Raphaelite Ophelia, in a frilly shirt?

Newsflash, dude - Sarah records closed down. Because real men don't like girly girl music.

Toil. That's real music. I'd recommend (She's my) Sexdual Disfunction, but it would probably make you cry.

"Girly girl music. I suppose you like to listen to it with a bunch of lilies clasped to your chest, swooning in the manner of a pre-Raphaelite Ophelia, in a frilly shirt?"

You're right of course but it is possible to behave like this and still enjoy music.

Tancce always needs a hug. To him its like a nutritious breakfast with plenty of fruit and a cold glass of juice.

I think he's cranky not to mention stereotyping Pink Floyd and Tool fans, some of them are tedious proselytising music facists with no repect for other people's tastes as well you know. It's not all just pre-raphelite, daffodil tossing hi-jinks.

And, marvellously, I read in Popbitch a) that the Pet Shop Boys are remixing "Mein Teil" (my cock), the new Rammstein single (chorus: You are what you eat, and you're eating my cock), and...

*drumroll*

There are rumours of a Smiths reunion!

A Smiths revival? That is a truly horrible think to say to someone at this time on a Friday afternoon. Still they'll all be in one place...

I'm looking forward to hearing the Pet Shop boys remix.

Nah toksik it's the lyrics to the original version of All the Things she said, translated from Russian. The one your thinking of is Not Going to Get Us.. I think I know too much about Tatu.
