YCBTO - a confession

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.

My rant there still stands; it is a pish song and can only be appreciated in the way that I like "To Hell With The Devil" by Stryper. It is so bad it goes right up Tasteless' arse and comes out on the other side as Pitiful and Worth Just One Chuckle And Done With It.


IZ.
Isn't that the whole point? There's a fine line between stupid and clever, etc. Von has always liked playing with that line.

One day they'll make a film of it. The Boss will be played by Colin Firth and win an Oscar.

YCBTO is obviously a snub at all those who wanted Von to keep the vibe black hole dark, a track so ironic it does indeed goes up its own arsehole, but is no worse a song for it - on account of being, quite frankly, fun!

Indeed.
