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.

Oh. My idea was here, but it was Artist X should cover Sisters Song Y whereas this is the other way round.

They should return the compliment to Lambchop and cover "Is a Woman".

Plus a glam medley. Everyone loves a glam medley.

Seeing as how they're in the US at the moment - "Keep The Red Flag Flying".


And just coz it's fiendy's favourite song in the whole wide world - "One Way" by The Levellers. :twisted:
I don't necessarily agree with everything I think.

I think a Sisters version of Bonnie Tylers Total Eclipse of the Heart would be very interesting.

Considering some of the covers done in the past....Man, I Feel Like a Woman by Shania Twain should fit in. Then follow it up with Jolene, for old times' sake :)

"Fast As A Shark" by Accept

Fog in the streets
A church clock beats
Midnight - darkness all around

You better beware
You better take care
Be prepared for the shock

The time has come
And hes the one
Whos breathing down your neck

Coming from behind
Now its your time
A loser will die

Fast as a shark hell cut out of the dark
Hes a killer - hell rip out your heart
On a one way track and youre not coming back
cause the killers on the attack

Surprise attack
Coming from the back
An expert of the deadly knack

Just take care
Just beware
Be prepared for the fight

Fast as a shark hell cut out of the dark
Hes a killer - hell rip out your heart
On a one way track and youre not coming back
cause the killers on the attack

Watch out - watch out

Fast as a shark hell cut out of the dark
Hes a killer - hell rip out your heart
On a one way track and youre not coming back
cause the killers on the attack

Fast as a shark hell cut out of the dark
Hes a killer - hell rip out your heart
On a one way track and youre not coming back
cause the killers
cause the killers
cause the killers on the attack

Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.

"No! The words you sang were wrong!"
