I saw Echo and the Bunnymen this past summer on the Isle of Wight show on TV. He has not aged well but his voice is okay for a late 40s singer. He was actually hard to recognise. I thought it was a singer from the Pogues. Pretty raw.

I've been trying to upload the 12" extended mix from the Sire "Just Say Yes . . ." CD but so far it's received a lukewarm reception — I think the extended version is superior and is what used to get played in the clubs back in the day.  |

At my computer with my back to the wood stove. Smells like something is burning. The cord on my headphones won't let me check it out. Don't care. I will wait for this song to end before I take them off and investigate the smoke smell. Thinking about where the fire extinguisher is. For now, it's worth it.

"Far-away dreamy sound" - I would never have thought to put it in those terms, but it works beautifully. Dreamy and wonderful. "Far-away dreamy sound" is a good description of EB and I agree that it works great in this song (8). But sometimes I find it wears thin for me. I appear to be throwing up some pretty grumpy posts today. Time to go swim I guess. |

Wow, for once something I can I agree with physicsgenius on and it's hairlarious
