    Agreed, F+TM are incredible and Lungs is one hell of an album!
    Kiss With a Fist is an amazing song off of that one- gets stuck in my head all the time!

    Postcards from Italy is another great one.

    I'm looking for 2 or 3 seated tickets (decent seats - for my 15 year old daughter - and decent price!) for the Friday or Saturday in London. Anyone hear of anything, let me know!

    When I watched and listened to this video ...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWOyfLBYtuU

    ... the first thing that came to my mind is that **someone** was in love with Siouxsie and the Banshees when she was a kid.

    Mind you, that's not a bad thing.

    She is great live,saw her recently.Very personable with a wickedly funny sense of humour.She is so beautiful she makes my skin shiver with all that red hair and alabaster skin,so very different from the tanned and tweaked look of many other female artist at the moment.
    Wonderful voice and dramatic stage presence.

    She is awesome. I've listened to the new album a couple times and I'm liking what I hear.
