CD2 - 'Thinking The Unthinkable' a new Divine Comedy track and a new recording of 'Oh Yeah', a cover of the Roxy Music classic. [You may have heard this track in live sets this year]. DVD single - this will feature the video to Perfect Lovsong, a remix of Perfect Lovesong by I Monster, and 3 clips from Scottish Television's Boxed Set show from earlier this year.

They also did a dreadful version of Kraftwerk's "Radioactivity" and I could swear there was at least one other bad cover - I would have to go through my collection. I don't know how it holds up against the original, but I like their cover of "Make it Easy on Yourself." I don't have high hopes for "Oh Yeah," but maybe Neil & co. will surprise me. He better or I will personally beat him up - he already deserves a whipping for the last album.

Remember Lippy the lion? I'll take a whole lotta lumps. Then the mallet. Bryan has been talking about this upcoming album of new material since 1994. But I guess this time he means it. He played 14 or 15 songs on his Mamouna tour. He is not a 20 song kinda performer. If he really is supporting a new album, he will play 3 off of his new album, 6 Roxy Songs and 6 other solos. Wishful thinking is one thing, but lets get a grip on reality.

I was wondering if anyone would be so bold to offer this astute observation to the list. The smelt suit detracted from and overpowered the subtleties that make Mr. Ferry the persona that he is. Ill-suited and outshone by ones own garb sputters poorly when one has already proven inherent validity that is in itself wondrous. Why cheapen the package?
