Choice of 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.

'Heat' by The Merry Thoughts. Or 'The Rivers Dark' by Leonard Cohen. Or 'Unforgettable" by Nat King Cole. Or 'Ace Of Spades' by Motorhead.

I still think Ballroom Blitz would be nice.
Or Who Needs Love Like This by Erasure.

I'd ask for fine tuned lyrics, of course. ;D

Edit: Considering the question of "Left or right" in the USA, the Time Warp from the Rocky Horror Picture Show might offer nice chunks of lyrics to start from. :von:
I guess this one comes slightly late!?

You've got a cruel sense of humour, Doc. But a good one! :lol:
Eldo in place of the teenage boy moistener of the eighties is an outrageous idea! :lol: :notworthy:

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

I had a great idea last time we did this, but I can't remember what it was now. *off to find thread*
