My top five:

1. "Fix." (With Craig Adams and Lemmy on duelling basses! "The love for the corpse for the corporation." Eldritch should be made poet laureate of a small exploited country for that line alone.)
2. "Amphetamine Logic." (You've gotta love Eldritch's self-induced nervous breakdown in the last part of the song.)
3. "Lights." (Ditto.)
4. "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man after Midnight)." (It is a little known fact that ABBA wrote the quintessential Sisters song in 1979.)
5. "Metropolis." (Record this one, Eldritch, with Mr. Kilmister on bass, of course, and you will make lots of filthy lucre, that is if you don't let him sing backup. Find some cutie to do that.)

Willard: I don't see any method at all, sir.

Have to agree that Lights would be fantastic. That's actually the best of the old songs. It was the first Sisters song that i was in awe over the poetry (of course i've realised since that there are even much better ones, but it's stil lfantastic in its way).

1. That ridiculous 30 min. Sister Ray Medley dreapt up in 1997.
2. Posession (a la Reading festival 1991)
3. Floorshow
4. Marian
5. Kiss the Carpet

How about Train bastardised to 2.5 mins WITHOUT bits of the
vision thing album welded to it?

And I'd like Burn, and Confide in me...oh heaps of stuff...

If Eldritch and the boys had any real talent the would have played Ozymandius by now :twisted:

No takers? pfft.
I’d dig it. That’s way Andy should go! He could throw off the Gothic dust cloth by cranking up the Industrial vibe. There's an MP3 of a performance of Andy with Utah Saints (from 1993 I think). The recording quality is very poor, but you get a sense the Sisters could go more Techo-Industrial with no problem. That's something I’d love to hear!

P.S.: 6 oldies I’d like to hear dusted off:

Floorshow
Possession
Adrenochrome
Body Electric
Walk Away
No Time To Cry
wah-hoo
let's do the war on drugs
