Sisters Images game. The reboot

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.

Not this, sorry.

Time for a clue: what does the shape conventionally represent?

Actually, we often seem to think they are easy because they seem obvious to us and then it takes ages to guess them.

So, having said that, my guess is...

Maybe this represents emwk's view on the existence of aliens and the line is

"we will never never land"

so....3 guesses:

1) no, much earlier- this song has been released officially
2) no, not that early- the doktor is in residence
3) no, still too recent- gary marx hasnt left yet

that narrows it down for you.
