Just read the NYTimes article where Bernard lists what he's into right now.

Made me think of an article I read years ago where Bernard, Steve and Gillian list their fave songs (from what I can remember, it was early 90s):

Mi Phi Me - (don't remember song) Bomb the Bass - 'Winter in July' Kylie - not sure which song, from her SexKylie era Can - 'Hallalujah' Neil Young - 'A Man Needs a Maid', 'Harvest Moon' Al Green - (don't remember which song, Let's Stay Together?) Pet Shop Boys - 'Panenero' (?, something like that) Chic - don't remember Roxy Music - 'Virginia Plain' Lou Reed - 'Caroline Says' Right Said Fred - 'Don't Talk Just Kiss' (yes!) KraFTWERK - 'The Telephone Call', 'Computer Love' Grandmaster Flash - 'The Message' [don't know for sure if this one was there or if I'm just imagining it] Led Zepplin - 'That's the Way' Rolling Stones - don't remember which song, something from Beggars Banquet The Smiths - 'The Boy with the Thorn in his Side' The Las - 'There She Goes' Iggy Pop - don't remember

There you have it! If I remember any more I'll add it on...

Isnt that what Ian listened to as he hung himself? NO wouldnt probably touch that.

Paninaro, great track, inspired by a mid-80s fashion thing happening in Italy... "Panino" means sandwich and it just referred to adolescents meeting in Mc Donald's after school and wearing only expensive fashion stuff like A-a-armani... it was the youngest version of the yuppie "movement"... totally high classist crap, actually, but it had some sick charm... The favourite bands of the Paninaros were Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet, that's why they're still hated today, though Duran Duran were a great band until Notorious...

Which is why Working Overtime on the new album is a parody of Iggy and the Stooges' "1969" then I guess.....
