How to write a Sisters' song in 1 minute

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.

That's not a Sisters song. That's a m*****n song. You can tell by the feeble-minded lyrics.

i c/p my comment from YT... :lol:
"This is how to write a "M****n" song in 1 minute, not Sisters of Mercy. Also the lyrics are so so simple for this to be a SoM song ^^"

I think we all agree to that at a high %

I don't hear M****n. But it sounds a lot like a She Wants Revenge song.

This is more like, "How to write one of those Sisters Of Mercy songs that Eldritch is so embarrassed by that he refuses to play live".

Yeah no that's "how to write the sort of song that will get you slagged off on the Sisters' 'Dear Doktor' page".
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

It's a cool song but I agree it does kinda sound like She past away or someone like that (which isn't a bad thing at all if you ask me)

Yeah, it's OK but it doesn't sound like the Sisters. It's more like what somebody who's had the Sisters described to them by somebody who's had the Sisters described to them might think the Sisters sound like. His "Bauhaus in 1 minute" was more successful, more accurate.

But it's all in the spirit of fun, so I can get behind it!
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
