I've spent days puzzling over this and suddenly realised what it is!

Raise your flippers ... er, arms.

Why aren't there more lines about penguins in Sisters songs?

I understand Kill the King... is a reference to the time Eldritch spent on the remote Crozet Island while writing material for Floodland.
During the time he was a attacked by a King Penguin. He was so shocked and incensed by this viscous and unprovoked attack he felt the need to pen his thoughts and came up with This Corrosion.

It's not a widely known fact that.

And of course, the dive bombers in Lucretia are skuas stealing penguin chicks.

Not to mention the seminal album Fjordland.

Okay, this is either really straightforward or really lateral.

Not straightforward then. Need a clue?

Spot on.

Lemme just dig this thread out and hope Hom_Corleone sees it...

Maybe there should be a new rule: if the person whose turn it is doesn't post something after, say, a week, anyone can jump in and keep the game going.

and we habe a winner

your turn

Yay

Next one should be easy:

And when the rain comes down
Would you choose to walk or stay?

Walk Away

If it is from Walk Away then it must be the
"And in the summer when the clouds show through"
line i suspect

but something tells me than it must be from Under the Gun

If it was a Mish song it would be "You are definitely NOT like a hurricane cos there isn't one on the way and - has it suddenly got a bit windy?"

I like the suggestions so far, but I'm afraid they're all wrong.
