Shane did a very effective vocal on this. It's pretty much an anti-war song when all the verses are done, which the Pogues did.

I much preferred their original 7" version - the Rum, Sodomy and the Lash one seemed a bit over-elaborate in comparison. -------------------- I've got no time for intellectual music eg Hergest Ridge

3. Both have words by that master lyricist Pete Sinfield
(who can forget his immortal line "the bearded sea-goat casts his runes thru walls of mirrored tears...."? Not from either of those songs tho, I don't think. -------------------- |

Well played sir! I did wonder if I might have made a bit too obscure -oh well, too late now... Anyway, the answers will be worth knowing (hopefully!). -------------------- I've got no time for intellectual music eg Hergest Ridge

#10 - Iggy did a track on The Idiot called Nightclubbing - Human League did a track on their Holiday 80 EP (just prior to Dare) called Nightclubbing.
Not sure if it's the same song or just the title linking... {Awaiting inevitable mockery... } -------------------- You don't have to be a died hair punk funk shit-hot fucked up tick-tock pad

Remember rainmaster, the fun is in the playing so let's put Mr
away for a more appropriate occasion and celebrate  your having taken part and all the joy that comes with that. I'm sure that if Mr Cap weren't so busy he would already have awared you a  for your fine effort and your taking the time to make such a well informed, though incorrect, guess [it seems], [you can say,"Of fuck you" if it make you feel better] -------------------- Member of Song Chain Members Club Member

Actually I've just remembered that my original question stated that the individual concerned is a journalist so I'm afraid that bonus point has been unilaterally withdrawn! -------------------- I've got no time for intellectual music eg Hergest Ridge

10. The Idiot has been the last record Ian Curtis played before his suicide. Dare was the last album Lester Bangs heard before his death.

5. I can only think that a variety of different drummers were employed on both records.
