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.
"Mundane by day, inane at night." It's a good all-purpose put-down as well.
The whole of Nine while Nine I find personally evocative based on a thoroughly cold and miserable hour at Guildford station listening to FALAA, but I'd accept that pathetic fallacy doesn't make for a great lyric.
SKOS is stunning ... and when I meet a girl who gets the point I'll get married
"... dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill / I hear dive bombers and /
Empire down." Welcome to Apocalypse: The Musical. I'll have a front row seat and some popcorn please.
And the devil in black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short and love is always over in the morning
Black wind come carry me far away
I had a face on the mirror
I had a hand on the gun
I had a place in the sun and a
ticket to Syria
I had everything within my reach
I had money and stuff
each and every call
too much but never enough
tear it up and watch it fall
"And when you start to think about death, you start to think about what's after it. And then you start hoping there is a God. For me, it's a frightening thought to go nowhere".

Hey, I bet you're a regular on here joined up again with a new name just so you don't embarras yourself by not knowing that, right?
No, just someone who has been reading for a while without joining in. Thank you & Black Horizon for the answer which is so obvious now! As it always is, once someone tells you.

Hehe cool. Come on and join the fun! We don't bite

Meaningless yet significant numbers, eh? If we had an extra finger on each hand we'd all be counting in base twelve anyway, and "1000" would be 1728...
And before "Pedants' corner" starts, by 1111st, I meant "One thousand and eleventy-first". It shouldn't have been 1111th at all. Oh no.

See, it was because of me posting gibberish like this that I started the "off-topic topic". How the feck do you get from posting about Sisters lyrics to random musings on number theory? Gah.

Love for the party love for the nation
Love for the fix for the fabrication
Love for the corpse for the corporation
Love for the death and for the defecation
Romance and assassination
Give me the love of genocide
Give me love
four useless gods upon a day
so blinded by the filth on sunday
saying the words for the idiots
you are miracle drivel
optical sewer
listens to the flowers fall
paint the words upon the wall
