Dead worried. I ordered it from Rough Trade at the weekend, got an order number but never got a confirmation e-mail. Have e-mailed them about it, but no one has replied. Therefore, they are gay. Cheerio, Michael. xxx Please refrain from using 'gay' as a derogatory term - it offends me. WOuld anybody be willing to type out the different lyrics for Teignmouth  ?? - I am so jealous, and wish i had the money to listen. I think it is so interesting when things can sound so different - like 'The tower' vs 'Thickets' - different yet both SO SO beautiful.. xx |

Oh dear Lord, I think you'll find Michael's being sarcastic, darling. Don't get your knickers in a twist.

God, I know, right. He should totally get banned from the forum because like he's creating such dramallamatastics.
... oh no, wait, he's the admin.

ok, you can call it 'sarcasm' but unless there was some sarcastic joke before this post, translating 'gay' to mean something bad, whether you realise it or not, only fuels homohobia.
and jake i never said 'he's creating such dramallamatastics', or that he should be banned - just a polite request.
.
lets leave it there - does anybody have the new lyrics please ??

Teignmouth (Love Bachelor Demo 2003)
on the night train
from the city to the south
I saw spirits
crawl across the river mouth
in skewed ascension
with no destination
like this lone bachelor in me
with constant yearning
for great love and learning
for the wind to carry me free
so when the birds fly south
reach up and hold their tails
pull up and out of here
bridle the autumn gales
gather your will to live
in this fire to roam
listen into the winds
I will be calling you home
from that window
I saw black gulls lost at sea
they move like shadows
those birds still haunt these dreams
with hope prevailing
I draw galleons sailing
with full sails billowing free
so when the birds fly south
reach up and hold their tales
pull up and out of here
bridle the autumn gales
gather your will to live
in this fire to roam
listen into the wind
I will be calling you home
calling you home
calling you home

i surprisingly dont really like the ep. the bachelor mix is ok, lots of bells. vaaety beau(or something), sound kinda home recorded with people just talking in background. teignmouth= AMAZING . this track blew me away, i thought the ep was doomed but this new version is genius. havnt heard the other two though, maybe they're amazing.  |

yes and so am i, but i dont think some people grasp the offence that substituting 'gay' to mean 'bad' is...i think this battle may be slightly different if someone was to have said 'therefore they are so black' or 'therefore that is so muslim' or women. or anything. smite me all you want, but i'd have thought this was obvious>>> ?if people begin to associate the word gay with bad, then homophobia only is fuelled. thanks sorrow by nature for those lyrics...so beautiful. |

yeah but if you get all worked up about it then people just feed off it anyway. that's why you just have to go along with it. it's an age old and very boring argument to have, really. there's a lot of gay people who seem to take offense to it, but i think a majority now - me, included - have just learnt that it's not meant spitefully, especially not from michael! so yeah, no hard feelings, just don't go period about it  x |

I ordered this last week, cos I really want the ep, but It hasn't been dispatched yet... is this normal? Or are they waiting for it to come in, etc?
