Most of these are easily found..

What was a helpful service is in danger of becoming something for people who can't be arsed to get these tracks for themselves so get everyone else to do their work for them. And could be in danger of attracting unwarranted attention from the likes of the RIAA.

At least I'm not the only one who thinks this way. But, since the person is new I figured, what the hell, let's help. But you are right, there are more and more people here whose only contributions to these boards is a string of requests.

Hear that all you out there, Frank Chckens is pissed!! Don't make him hunt you down and peck out your eyes!!![:D]


BTW Frank: no luck yet with the "People are still having lunch" track. I want those bonus points.

My beak is worse than my bite!!! [:D]

I haven't got a problem with sending the odd track or two to people, but when it comes to a glorified shopping list with a "send these thanks" it's taking the piss a slight bit..

As for the "People are Having Lunch" (yep, a parody of the LaTour hit), the only help that I can give you is that artist's name is in Esparanto..[xx(]

An interesting fact about the Beggar&Co. track is the reason why it's nicknamed "Chant No2" is that Spandau Ballet helped out on this track since they helped out on "Chant No1".

Referring to your "allegation", I'm not forcing anyone to get those tracks for me coz I've been searching for them myself. I have never thought it would be this difficult to get hold of them unless ... if this means you have the entire listed mp3s. Can you send the load to me - especially from The Company She Keeps - What A Girl Wants (I've been looking for the single for ages). I would be verrry grateful.

<shakes head>

The arrogance of this c*nt.

Icing on the cake moment was then turning around and asking to send the whole lot to me..

If I wasn't so nice I would be sending you the whole lot of something all right..sigh..

THIS is what I miss from my British Sea Power forum - the gratuitous use of the C word! I love it, and it's so well done and cheeky coming from a Brit. I just can't pull it off as nicely - sounds too harsh. We should have a resolution to accept and use this and the T word much more often! [:D]

[:D] at Blir.

There are a few other Brit-based words that are fun to use as well. [;)]

Ok eight6, I'm calm now.

Really.

No negative thoughts.

Peace and calm all the way.

Thinking happy things.

Like using leeches on leachers.

Bugger, that's my cover blown! [:D]
