Poguetry

God, I love the internet. I just found a site with detailed annotations for songs by the Pogues. Here are the annotations for my favourite one of the moment, Boat Train.

I love you. I've wanted to find something like this for YEARS.

Just passing on the link - the bloke who did the site deserves the credit!

But I'd never have found it! I look up Pogues lyrics all the time and never come across this.

:-) No idea how I found it now. There are some lyrics to Boat Train that aren't on the insert so I must have been looking for them.

All my Pogues stuff is on tape. I must get round to picking up CDs...

Heh. I ony recently did that. For like a decade I had only two of their albums, pirated onto one 90-minute tape. I finally have some CDs. Only three so far.

I think I had a tape like that for ages too, with the first two albums on :-D I bought If I Should Fall From Grace With God on tape with the prize money I got from winning a quiz when I was 16. Happy days!

Hope I'm not bothering you, but I was wondering what you thought of this (http://www.livejournal.com/users/popehippo/207094.html).

Not bothering me at all - just one question though: is it an episode analysis or a story/ideas for a story? I can't read the latter these days because of copyright reasons, unfortunately :-(
