Ask Andrew

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.

Tch. Isn't one reason* we find him so, erm, interesting the fact that he does think, rather a lot?




*I was going to say the whole reason, but then I remembered who'd been posting... :wink:

i don't know precisely how much thinking this one did, but i do know that the end result would put off your average bloke from thinking any more than is necessary to open a can of beer ;D

No one, I hope. But he have been asked for every (really) interesting thing, so If you want to ask him something new you have to ask questions like these...

I still regret not having asked him why on earth did he choose that girl from Berlin in Under the gun????

Ah... and by the way, the cat enigma (or part of it) may be solved by right clicking on the pictures of them from the official site.....

I have top admit that, even though I was a massive Berlin fan, Under The Gun took awhile to grow on me...but grow it did. I'm inclined think it had less to do with Teri Nunn than it did with the song being rather, erm, atypical.

"This Corrosion" is what started my love affair with Andrew Eldritch,
but "Under The Gun" was originally called "Two Worlds Apart", written by
a guy I wrote with before meeting Andrew. I sent my demo of it to
Andrew, who fell in love with it too. He added the rap/rant lyrics at
the end (which are brilliant).
