I think I mentioned in another post that although the lyrics are beautiful, the repetitiveness of the melody somehow takes away from the song (IMO). I find myself getting a little bored - but then again, I tend to have a short attention span. :wink:

Wrong wrong, the greatest and most heart wrenching moment of Poguetry is when MacGowan says that he built his dreams around her.

Thank You. Mr. Chevron.

I hadalmost of your CDs, but I bought them all again with the extra tracks.

By the way, you wrote my favorite song: Thousands Are Sailing. And please come to play again in Portugal. And would like a lot to see you where I live: Ponta Delgada, in Azores Islands.

Greetings.

Nick Cave does my fucking head in.
I wish he would stay the fuck away from anything to do with the Pogues.
Every documentary hes there like a bad dose of the shits.
Him and fucking Bono. :x
