Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


OT Musical Interlude: Siouxsie and the Banshees, "Dazzle"


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEyhtdPEQxA

the stars that shine & the stars that shrink
in the face of stagnation the water runs
before your eyes

swallowing diamonds
a cutting throat
your teeth when you grin
reflecting beams on tombstones
a jamboree of surprises
playing russian roulette
or the lucky clip
a clenched fist to your heart
coal dust on your lungs

a silver tongue for the chosen one
heavy magnum in your side or a bloody thorn

skating bullets on angel dust
in a dead sea of fluid mercury
baby piano cries
under your heavy index & thumb
pull some strings -- let them sing

the stars that shine & the stars that shrink
in the face of stagnation the water runs
before your eyes
dazzle
it's a glittering prize

By any chance, do you play Rock Band?

I ask just because in this week’s batch of downloadable songs for Rock Band, they are featuring Siouxsie and the Banshees…albeit Dazzle isn’t one of them, I thought it was an odd coincidence.

BTW, Hong Kong Garden kicks ass.

agree with the Cities in Dust recommendation

But for reasons known only to my subconscious, I adore their version of “Dear Prudence”…

Big Fan

Cities in Dust is great as is Dazzle. I really like their cover of Iggy Pop’s “The Passenger”.

Fourthing "Cities in Dust"

But let’s not forget “Spellbound”…
