What is the title of the sing that became Black Planet??

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.

Hi, my memory may be failing me, but I vaguely recall hearing a song that was using the music of Black Planet but not the lyrics? I think it was the original version the song, but it was modified to become BP. Can you point me to a bootleg site? Thanks!

Hi there, jlupien ... and welcome here ... :D ...

You can find instrumental versions of Black Planet on ECHOES VOL. IV CD, Wide Receiver and In The Shadow Of Angels 12".

Also there are three mixes on The WEA Mixes CD


Though most possibly you're thinking of this Victims Of Circumstance bootleg, which is based on this cassette...

There (and elsewhere too), Black Planet is referred to Dance On Glass.
Listen to it on YouTube with Hussey singing about Saints And Martyrs ... ImageImage ...


And yeah, there would be a Saints And Martyrs bootleg page in the Wiki, if we had got that far by now,
but we haven't ... so for this one, we would have to refer you to the ultimatesistersguide or to sistersbootlegs ... 8) ...

La Hussey's lyrics on that version of Dance On Glass eventually mutated into the Mission song of the same name.

No they didn't. Only the title made it into the later song. Some lines ended up in other Mission songs (Sacrilege, Garden Of Delight and particularly Naked And Savage) and the rest were ditched.

Well I'll be knocked down with a feather. You're right and I'm wrong.
