The Wish B-sides get left off only because I already had those on CD. And even though I'm very ambivalent towards Bloodflowers, the "Maybe Someday" Acoustic Mix is a marked improvement over the original and must merit a POX Honorable Mention

POV: Cure B-sides!

Dan Perry, I'm calling your bluff, Spilt Milk isn't on Dots!

― Baaderoni (Fabfunk), Tuesday, 9 March 2004 09:36 (twenty-one years ago)

OOPS. I have no idea why I did that! Okay, so bump that and replace it with "A Japanese Dream".

― CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Tuesday, 9 March 2004 14:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Splintered in her head
Throw your foot
New day
A man inside my mouth
The exploding boy
A chain of flowers
Fear of ghosts
This twilight garden
Scared as you
The big hand

― Janjao, Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:19 (twenty-one years ago)

10:15 Saturday Night - vital high school time
Do The Hansa - makes me laugh, clap, stomp
The Upstairs Room - a perfect private drama
Speak My Language - at the paris saloon
Stop Dead - handily features title in chorus
A Japanese Dream - my favorite sugarcubes song
Breathe - yes, i will marry you
A Chain of Flowers - achingly pretty guitars
Babble - final boss fight: smith vs shadow smith
Harold and Joe - the sunny path after the rain

I'll give you more than 10!

A few hours after this and we're apart again
Like two white checks, like opposite poles
In a secret game
Like nothing like these I suppose

I really should have known by the cut of your smile
That the answer would be simple
It still took you a while to get it out of me
I thought you'd do it easily

Just put your hands around my heart and squeeze me 'til I'm dry
I never thought you'd ever start to ever ask me why
Just put your hands around my heart and squeeze me 'til I'm dry
I never thought you'd ever start to ever ask me why
I never saw you again
I never saw you again
I never saw you again
I never saw you again

Xp This Twilight Garden yeah it’s a beaut that one. It was great that they were officially back with the first new single for years, properly back after years of dithering and remix albums and such, but like “holy shit they’ve got an album coming out and *this* isn’t even on it!”

I often remind my old mate with a chuckle about how we drove to a HMV shop about 30 miles away just so we could watch the first showing of the ‘High’ video. I can’t imagine what I’d drive 30 miles for these days.

'Throw Your Foot'! YES!

Although 'A Chain of Flowers' is way too low.
