I wouldn't want Robyn to fall into the first category, it's fundamentally *not* what his music is about. Would you enjoy it as much if it had instant appeal? Let's face it, all of us must be at least a *little* bit wierd... and enjoy it.+ And besides, would you really want to live in a world where being like Robyn Hitchcock was the norm??? :-) # Tim Stickland # bsstrs@gdr.bath.ac.uk # It's not cynicism.

If it doesn't stay in the top ten ( say as long as Perspex did ) they may not repeat a video from that album. Hopefully Robyn will put them out ( if any others exist ) in a package similar to the Queen Elvis videos. Maybe even include live footage from the semi- acoustic tour with those tasty orchestrated versions of 'Eye' stuff. Or maybe he'll just do his art show and ...... ahhhh huh huh huh, get Barrett to tour with him. Ahhhh huh huh huh. That would be cool :) bh
