bus station loonies sisters cover

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

I know that we living in the world where spiders live alsow, and the people dying... but in the flood of dark-metal-g***h sisters covers this version brings me a smile:

i wish people wouldn't cover the girls at all -with the obligatory exception of lambchop (even though i don't really like that myself, zenobviousman does and he's a mate.) :wink:
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

Plenty of Sisters covers sound good. Especially the ones where they're not trying to emulate the band, but give the song a completely different feel.

I'm all for mock-reggae versions of Sisters songs.

From the Loonies' web page:

A 16-minute reggae rendition of THE SISTERS OF MERCY “Temple of Love� simply had to happen. So it did. Didn’t impress the bikers, but “Whole Lotta Rosie� was way beyond our means. Didn’t impress the Goths either, but earned us a scathing mention in Mick Mercer’s late ‘nineties Goth bible, “The Hex Files�, ensuring the black cloth brigade suddenly found us de rigeur, and seemed to evolve into amorous attention from a few daughters of darkness for more than one of us. Life’s weird.
Nothing ventured, nothing lost

I will try...

Piccies... eeerr... no pics from gigs and almost no pics from cities I've been (because when I went from a hostel / motel to a town I knew that I would not be back before the gig - and my camera isn't small enough for hiding):

Oh yes, he's far too pretty to be a Sister. :wink: And I see Chris has smuggled in his cans of Guinness again. :innocent: But what's happened to Mr Eldritch's shades? :lol:

And as for the Bus Station Loonies' cover, it was extremely effective at clearing the Phono at the last Heartland weekend. :notworthy:
And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there.
