Lo and behold, I wasn't able to. When I went to the auction site that had a couple things listed as "available" I found that nothing was there. Then I tried for the new X-Mas T-shirt, but no "purchase now" button popped up on it ... Is it just me? Am I too late for anything here? Did the internet gremlins attack me again? Or is anyone else having the same problem? Cheers, Jerr __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New Yahoo!

I listened to it three times in a row to try and get a taste for it ... in a way I dig it - relatively true to the original, pretty good sound, and I dig having the female vocals take it (242 had the raw intensity in the vocals, but Melly's voice almost makes you WANT to be caught). On the flip side, there's not a lot of their own flavour in the cover (compare to Poe's cover of "My Lips Are Sealed"), and it's got a very young sound to it - a little unpolished, a little like they're not quite comfortably set in their thing (plus, although I don't know where Melly is from it appears to be an American band ... and I have an unnatural aversion to putting on a Brit accent to sing with - sorry). In any case, it's certainly worth listening to and worth hanging onto ... it may not supplant 242's original in my heart, but it's not getting deleted either. There you are. My opinion and a quarter will get you a phone call. (Is it still a quarter in a payphone? Sheesh - I've been gone too long ...)

I was in a restaurant (Dragonfish, in Seattle) with some friends, and "Make a Wish" came on! We were in the middle of the conversation, and I just stopped, and said "Hey... that's Poe!" I've never heard that song anywhere but my own stereo, so that was great. just thought I'd share... - -Michael _________________________________________________________________ Tired of slow downloads?
