Just remembered 1959 I like very much.I expect this song could be a least fav with a few?

I read somewhere that 1959 was written by a girl called Isabelle.She sent the lyrics to Von and that's how we got 1959.
At the very end of the song he mentions her name. :notworthy:

Well... from what I recall, the inspiration for the song came from Isabelle, who wrote to the man asking him if he would consider writing a song based on just him and a piano..

The title obviously being his year of birth and I figure the lyrics are his...

I loved the Emma version on the back of the 12" Dominion. I also love the one on the Wake video too.

I only recently aquired the SKOS/ Comfortably numb after hearing Paddy's gang do it at Crewe (so out of touch i've been :oops: )

Faves are Logic, Alice, Nine while Nine, SKOS, FloodII, Poison Door, Anaconda.

Stinkers? Not many i don't like really, eerrrrrrr, Dominion i was never a great fan of and Detonation Boulevard got on my nerves too

Hmm. Maybe we should make this a little more...demanding, and establish a limit of songs? Maybe three Favourite and three Hated?

It's a little wide of the mark to lump SSV tracks in with the girls' repertoire, is it not?

Best - which ever song is my fave this week. Often that means Ribbons or Crash & Burn. Always means Untitled (Dominion b-side). Always means all of Gift, if that counts :wink: . Definite special mention for Untitled (long demo). :notworthy:

Worst - I'd never miss On The Wire or Giving Ground live, but that's due to over-familiarity.

Best cover - Emma, Gimme Shelter, Comfortably Numb. And Jolene (but that's four).[/i]

Motz - Just as FFS Dave said, SSV is not - I presume - really a part of the original question. I put it to elamanamou to arbitrate...

S'pose not. But blame Dark, he did it first ;)

But if we're going to be like that, doesn't that make all of the Sisterhood songs covers? :innocent:

faves
Heartland
Fix
Ribbons

I was wrong (to record and release this track)
On The Wire - a bit of a wail-a-thon if you ask me...

best cover
Gimme Shelter (tho not neccesarily live)
Ghostrider used to pack a punch 'back in the day'

best lines
Too much but never enough
Tear it up and watch it fall
- Never Land (a fragment)
Heartland sing the faces shining
In the failing failing failing
Heartland make the places mine
- Heartland
Love for the corpse for the corporation - Fix
She says anytime
Raise your arms

Damn, this is hard... For now, I guess my faves are:
Afterhours
Burn
Bury Me Deep
Dominion (whatever version, all of them are quite cool, I think)
Driven like the snow
both Floods
Marian
On The Wire
Ribbons
Teachers/Adrenochrome (has my favorite cover included, make's it a lot easier for me 8) )
This Corrosion

Least favorites is even harder, depends from day to day even more:
1969
Amphetamine Logic
Gimme Shelter
Good Things
I Was Wrong
No Time To Cry
Possession
Torch
Walk Away
Watch
When You Don't See Me
You Could Be The One

Guess that's about it, though it depends on daily base, mostly :)

Motz, you are REALLY pushing it now.


(And I think the untitled guitar song thing, is not the I Was Wrong riffs, I think he means the one that's on a sistersrarities group with the 2 tape mixes of TC, with Candle. At least I think so. That version seems to cut off after about 4 minutes, but it may be a guitar part in Corrosion.)
