St Etienne - Yay Or Nay

[Citizen66]

A quite well known fact at that.

Indeed.

 

[Paul Russell]

Eh? No mention? It's in you last cut and paste paragraph.

Doh. I completely typed the wrong thing.

What I meant was no mention of them re-recording "Only Love Will Break Your Heart", so as Wikipedia mentions re-recording Kiss and Make Up but not Only Love, I guess the answer to your question

"Does Cracknell sing 'only love' on foxbase as well?

is probably no.

OK, I'm going now before this gets even more confusing.

 

[Paul Russell]

Indeed.

Oh sorry, I didn't realise this was the "wow, how much do we all know about music, smart-arse thread".

I was just making some idle chit-chat about a band I have a few LPs by but do not actually have a degree in.

I'll admit to being seriously biased here. I've known Sarah since before the band was formed and she, and a couple of her friends from drama school, helped me a lot when I was laid up for six months with a trapped nerve in my back. So she's good people.

However I also think the music ranges from OK to superb. Finistere in particular is one of my all time favourite albums. I like the way they get a fairly rich seeming arrangement from very little, and on their day they hit a very pleasant groove.

Did you shag her?

God they're awful. Some dire soporific drivel from their new album is just on the radio. Totally forgettable yet still annoying because of its wetness.
