Hi! That Tori sound clip thingie is pretty neat. Thanks to Kimmy for posting the pointer! Roddy elucidated: >And for anyone wondering, "Smalltown Boy" ("run away...turn away...") is by >the UK band Bronski Beat. It's what many would consider a gay anthem from >the mid-80's. It's about a gay kid having to leave home with everything he >owns in one bag and make it on his own. Like I noted earlier, that's the song that started it all for me, so it has a special place in my heart. (The rest of the album, _The Age of Consent_ is pretty cool too -- the singer, Jimmy Somerville later went on to a group called The Communards that had some pretty big dance hits in England in the later 80's, then he struck out on his own.) What any of this has to do with Tori is anybody's guess, but hey. :) +==========================================================================+ | Meredith Tarr meth@smoe.org | | Boonton, NJ USA http://remus.rutgers.edu/~woj/meth | +==========================================================================+ | "There's a god out there, and god I wish it was mine" - Susan McKeown | +==========================================================================+ ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V1 #195 *************************************
