I want my sisters mojo back

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.

Walk away another great song to have feeling opposite to love and peace.
If you go to gig you're gonna feel anger.

I guess you have to find the mojo tracks by yourself. And i guess you know which they are.


Anyhow, currently with an extremely high mojo value:
Ribbons & giving ground brum 93
Gimme shelter loreley 92
And as always: lucretia
But, and with subtile brutality: body electric (82 of course)
love is just a shot away

None.

It's just background music to the real reason some of us still go to Sisters' gigs. If the band turn up, great. If they don't, just enjoy seeing old/new friends.

If anyone deserves to hear the alleged song first it's the Greeks. Not only have you had to endure the consequences of the Euro bailout, but the way that migrants have been welcomed and assisted has shamed most of the rest of Europe. And of course, the limited edition bootleg recording of FP live would be available on Ebay within minutes of the gig ending. :wink:

I prefer not to comment at the so called "bailout". :roll:
Actually part of them is migrants, but a big part is refugees and the change is that refugees is the biggest number at this moment.
Of those that interested look difference between refugee and migrant to unde3rstand what is happening.
I believe that FP video will be available in youtube for free for all planet if it happens ;D
I don't understand why people buy bootlegs in ebay that don't meet certain quality criterias :roll:

Yes, three different mixes, two remixes (one done by Wayne Hussein) and a capella.
Nice single, even on flexi version, orange vinyl and cassette.
