A rather strange choice for that prog I would have thought, but who's complaining? Not me, I've learned my lesson......... mactheaxe ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2007 11:03:35 EST From: DEAGLERR@aol.com Subject: Re: [AVALON] BBC & Party Doll Let's hope (hint, hint) that someone who can get the BBC show makes it possible to tree it, for those on the other side of the planet. RE Party Doll. I always thought Ferry was adressing some cute Soviet aparatchic. Er... seriously now... I always thought it had to do with Jerry Hall. the "I'll be swan" bit being an American southernism meaning I swear. Not that big of a stretch to think his Prairie Rose or some of her kin didn't use it around BF. I find it odd that the listed lyrics spell it Swann as in Proust: In Search of Lost Time. Nice literary touch, but would BF have punned that way? (although, Wasn't Swann slinking around pining for Odette? I'm sure some Avalonian will correct me even if I haven't got that wrong) Another random neuron fire: A leaping house in Shakespeare means a bordello. So "I'll be leaping all night long" ... well you can guess the rest. Regards, R Deagle ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.
