What does FALAA mean?

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.

First and last and always....

A certain love of whatever that comes first, that lasts and is forever?

There is a love for that kind of thing you know.

It's called "obsession."
I don't necessarily agree with everything I think.

Hmmm, maybe but there are other thoughts that occupy my brain so it's not continuous. But the love part is. :wink:

And it's the continuity of that love that brings your thoughts back to that particular person. (I must point out that I only see obsession as a negative thing when taken to extremes, but that's pretty much the same with anything really). Obsession is what infatuation turns into (maybe "matures" would be a better word?) and keeps the feelings strong enough to last the distance.

Yeah I'll agree with you in the continuity thing. Obsession can indeed be a positive or negative thing. Infatuation in a mature sense will keep feelings strong enough to last through any thing really. And if it's not about love I can think of a few things that might be meant.

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Okay so that was an interview from 1988, still it wasn't an end for TSOM. Maybe a new era with different people but still they carried on...
