Really??? Please keep in mind that this is being written only moments after reading your rather puzzling comment....but...that's seems rather ridiculous at best and short-sighted at worst. Your not liking a song based on the level of acceptance by the mass public makes no sense at all. Perhaps you heard it too much or saw the video too often, if so, learn when to turn off the tubes (ok, I know most radios are tubeles now). Dear God is certainly not my fave XTC tune, but it deserves more than to be dismissed for being popular. At least the fab three actually mad a little money off that one. Let's all not be so caught up in being hip and cool and having our own little unknown piece of rock cool hip-dom that we deny the atrtists we love an opportunity to make a living with their work by pronouncing it "not cool" once accepted by a larger audience. Wouldn't you rather prefer to tell them, "I told you so", or, " Hey, if you liked "Dear God" check out some of these other songs" (preferably something from The Big Express, by far their best work). And by the way, if you like The Big Express, check out Tampa Florida's CLANG!. A truly amazing pop quartet. Regards, Brian Swanson

Subject: Blur (oh no! it's Blur again!)
Hi All
Maybe someone should start a Blur list (or is there one already?),
Chalkhills isn't the place to keep discussing Blur. Now, here I am, and
I'll add a little bit more Blur. My eyes fell on a few quotes in an
interview with Blur in the latest edition of the dutch magazine 'OOR'
(interview by Pieter van Adrichem). I'll try to keep it as short as
possible.
Warning: the things that are said are translated from English to Dutch
and now I've translated everything back to English again. Subtleties are
lost, but I hope the it's understandable. Also, I have not asked for the
right to blah bla blah.
[in an Amsterdam club] "A bunch of British guys next to us regularly
bursts into loud laughs and in the meantime consumes incredible amounts
of beer. Damon [Albarn, the singer] bends towards me and whispers: 'A
group of accountants, out for a weekend. A while ago they were looking
who gets bold the fastest'. And then with a smile: 'Precisely the ones I
had in mind with _Girls And Boys_. The song is about British tourists
that try to pick up girls in Greek nightclubs. The sort of sexual
behaviour where there's no moral. Not that I want to condemn it, because
I find it actually very interesting. But the line `always should be
someone you really love' is certainly meant to be ironic.'"
"The single _There's No Other Way_ was the British breakthrough in April
1991, but the album _Leisure_ was not as succesful. Not only because it
was not as good as the singles, but also because Manchester was walking
so much on it's last legs that Blur as a trendfollower was hardly taken
seriously. When Seattle took over the banner from Manchester at the end
of 1991, Blur suddenly was nowhere anymore. In the period that followed
they went through a slump, with a single that flopped and a failing
recording session with XTC-leader Andy Partridge. Damon: 'The curious
thing was that Food [their record company] was very enthousiastic about
that material, while we didn't approve of it at all. We had to tussle
for months before we got permission to go into the studio again. But
with the note that we did not have to count on any sympathy if things
went wrong.' When _Modern Life Is Rubbish_ was finished Food was not
enthousiastic: they thought it was to British, that Blur was completely
off the target. The relation is badly cooled down. 'Officially we are
still on Food but in fact all business is done by Parlophone.'"
Although I see a lot of parallels between Blur and XTC ('too British', a
bad relation with record company, no luck with producer, the title
_Leisure_), let's get back to (hopefully) some real XTC content (like
the announcement for the new album? yes?)....

Saying he doesn't is just a reflection of his anger and frustration. It's the old "if you really exist give me a sign" plea, but of course God doesn't exist so no sign is received. :) >(2) Because I think it's not one of XTC's better songs, it irks me that >it's one of their most popular, and one that finally got XTC some >airplay and notoriety.

In a similar vein, that whole "one hit wonder" thing really bugs me. Any time a band is judged solely on the basis of one song they're being done a great disservice.

I don't like this particular effect but that's mainly because while creating one of my many theme-tapes (Religion) I had a hell of a time getting a decent sounding cut or fade on my ancient tape deck at the end of the song. :) Doug

My XTC interest began when they came to Australia after Drums and Wires, and I saw them lip-sync "Life Begins at the Hop" on Countdown, the (now defunct) Australian equivalent of Top of the Pops. I've followed them through every album since then, including Nonsuch (still to catch up with early ones, but it will come). I've also just finished reading the book about them, which painted their career as a struggle, marked by huge disappointments and disillusionments. But the artistic success that has come from that struggle is so great, I can't say I feel sorry for them. I am what we used to call a vinyl junkie (in the pre-CD days). I like to delve into the great pop music of the past as well as the present. I really got into music seriously soon after XTC began, so that pioneering post-punk philosophy has kind of shaped my tastes. But I'm also especially keen on the music of the 60's - Beatles, Byrds, Small Faces, Monkees, etc. etc., and I really appreciate XTC's 60's influences, as well as the modernist approach they have. I heard about this Mailing list on alt.music.alternative, a newsgroup which I comb through but rarely participate in because it seems to be too dominated by American tastes. Americans invented rock and roll, but poms perfected it imo. Jonathan Flynn, Sydney, Australia Postal Address: P.O.

Right.
I've been away from Chalkhills for a year, so please forgive me if I am
recycling old news. I read a summary of upcoming album releases in the
morning paper the other week, and to my great astonishment a new album
by XTC (no title given) was listed for release in November. Can anybody
confirm and/or provide additional info on this?

'ello all, my name is Andy. I've been an xtc fan since I was given Drums and
Wires as bribery from my sitters beau.
I quess Black Sea is my favorite release with Mummer as a close second.
Also, Big Express doesn't suck! I'd say the closest they came to sucking
was Oranges and Lemons.
I'll add my 2 cents to the Blur topic. I HATE that "Boys and Girls, and/or
anything that moves" song. I heard it one night on the radio before
retiring, and it croped up in a nightmare involving surgeon general elders.

Subject: My Intro...
Having seen a few issues, I figured it's time for my intro.
I remember that my first XTC epxerience was Drums and Wires, listening to
it late at night with my chums as we toiled away in our basement
laboratory, constructing computers and weird electronic music instruments.
My interest went into hiatus for a while, then picked up with a vengence
when I heard It's Nearly Africa on one of the WOMAD albums. Since then I've
purchased everything that is readily available and have never been
disappointed with any of it.
I've been performing avant-garde music for several decades now - I guess
I'm one of the older farts here, at 41+. In the late 70's I was involved in
the 'new wave' scene in the San Francisco. Now it's all samplers,
multi-media, political performances.
XTC's ways with odd chords, syncopation, lyrical flights of fancy amuse me
to no end. And it doesn't hurt that I agree with their socio/political
viewpoint - President Kill Again on my answering machine during the great
Gulf War.
I've met Todd 'skylarking' Rundgren at parties, other events. My
impression, substantiated by other musicians who've worked with him, is
that he is altogether much too full of himself. Anybody who calls himself
'the inventor of interactive music' has got to have one hell of an ego,
right?
The one time I met Andy was at Tower Records in San Francisco for the
Nonsvch release - fun passing articles back and forth between fans, humming
the tunes in unison as they played over the store sound system and we
snaked our way towards our goal.
Does anyone remember an early punk film ("DOA"?) where they performed
Respectable Street? Would love to see that again (among other things). Not
much at my end for trading, just the MTV stuff somewhere on vtape - 120
Minutes and there's an acoustic version of Scarecrow People.

Wouldn't you think someone of Andy's caliber is capable of more than
just writing pop songs? And wouldn't you expect him to pursue those
other interests. As John Lydon once said in an interview (paraphrase):
"I get so angry when PIL does a show and the audience keeps yelling
for old Sex Pistols songs. I just want to say to them 'hey, I do
different stuff now, I've moved on with my life, I've grown'." Maybe
"Through the Hill" is Andy's experimentation in musical growth.
Anyhow, I hear Andy's pop genius influence all over this CD, but it
doesn't come in the form of a song, rather a riff or a "situation".
> Besides, I went through my "Windham Hill" phase 7 years ago.
> It lasted about a week. :-)
Ack. You're comparing this CD to Windham Hill?!? You need to have a
second listen! :-) If I was to classify "Through the Hill", I'd have
to call it "avant-garde pop ambient". Windham (Wyndham?) Hill is just
schlock.

From: Brookes McKenzie <RMCKENZI@smith.smith.edu>
Subject: the usual (dear god)
but first a bit about blur:
the title of "boys & girls" confused me because i kept thinking it might be
the same as the theme song to _the state_ on mtv (which may or may not
even be saying "boys and girls" - it's hard to tell), which i sort of like
in a it-grows-on-you way, so when i happened to be in nobody beats the wiz
today i listened to the first two tracks on the blur cd in the little
listening station they had. and whoever said depeche mode is right on -
it had the exact same thing that turns me off of such disparate groups/artists
as the cure, the smiths, new order, billy bragg and john wesley harding -
a ridiculously exaggerated in order to sound as pretentious as possible
british accent. i am not an expert on accents so i'm not sure if one
automatically retains one's accent when singing and therefore all the
great british bands (beatles, stones, pink floyd [who i'm listening to
right now], and of course xtc) who _didn't_ have strong accents when
singing were trying to sound american and so that explains it, but
at any rate i found blur not worth the uproar. and it sounded nothing
like disco - maybe what the manchester set thinks disco sounded like.
and a random note about trip shakespeare:
now i also have had the experience of buying cds near-blindly on the
recommendations of chalkhillians, which overall i defend since some
of them i've really liked a lot (jellyfish), and also i think it is
necessarily a _very_ hit-or-miss deal as obviously a lot of wildly
variant tastes happen to overlap on the subject of xtc. however,
in my opinion trip shakespeare SUCKS. i think the lead singer's
voice is positively awful. and they even had a double recommendation
>from matthew sweet (backup vocals on _earth_). *sigh*. oh well.
now, about "dear god":
- granted, the idea of using the little girl's voice is extremely
cheesy. however i don't think her actual voice is that bad, in fact
i think it's sort of pleasant, and the transition from her voice to
andy's is somehow gratifying in an odd way that i can't really explain.
- also granted, the lyrics are trite and overly simplistic. the only
thing i like about them is the very fact that the speaker contradicts
himself furiously throughout - that his passionate rejection of god
seems to imply that he _wants_ to believe so much that he can't
just accept what he's told, but there is nothing god can do to make
him believe. and andy sings it so powerfully, even if it doesn't
express all of what he really thinks on the subject, it comes close
enough _somewhere_ to drag that much feeling out of *him*. and i
think it redeems itself musically.
- which is more than i can say for its erstwhile predecessor on
_skylarking_, "mermaid smiled". i was listening to _rag & bone buffet_
yesterday and was struck by how downright *bad* that song is. the
lyrics are the cheesiest ever produced by andy (with the minor
exception of "disque bleu", which he acknowledges as the soppiest)
and the music is totally ridiculous arpeggios that sound like they
should be coming from a harp. the only thing that's at all worthwhile
about it is its position on _rag & bone_ - after the last strum of
"mermaid smiles", the colonel comes in with the hysterical strains of
"too many cooks in the kitchen", which sounds even funnier after the
saccharine nostalgia that preceded it. anyway, my point here was that
"dear god" is definitely flawed (and i agree with whoever said that the
worst thing about it is the way that it's the only song that people
know xtc by), but it is *so* far superior to "mermaid smiled" that
there's really no comparison. materialistic motives notwithstanding.

[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][] Subject: Bike Ride To The Moon and Back Date: Thu, 01 Sep 1994 13:12:27 CDT From: John A Lane <jal@iastate.edu> XTC- you've come a long way, baby. My very first introduction to XTC happened in the weirdest way, when I was a wee lil' teenager. I happened to be browsing in a record store (in the days when they actually sold records- those big black discs), and over the store PA, I hear the oddest sounds kick in. It's 25 O'Clock, folks, and time to get those senses working overtime. I bought the record, and I've been hooked since. It took a little while to convert my brother; the first time he heard Skylarking, he thought it was crap, but I convinced him that it was the Sgt.Pepper's of the 80s, and he's been convinced ever since. As for my feelings on XTC now: I believe they've entered a Let-It-Be phase (sorry for yet another Beatle comparison). The radio tour was significant only to the small legion of fans who knew that the radio tour existed in the first place- pity. Wouldn't it be nice if they released this stuff? Hopefully, XTC will "get back" to their roots. I thought Paul Fox's work on O&L was atrocious, like XTC on Broadway. Fortunately, Nonsuch seems a little closer to the Fab Three's style. I particularly like "War Dance". Seems like Moulding is actually writing the best stuff in the band these days. Well, I'll ruminate some more later. Any reaction? By the way- how can I get my hands on that XTC bio book? Train Running Low on Soul Coal, and so I must go...

When it comes to gauging a commercial market, XTC are their own worst enemies. To wit: Skylarking fronted "Dear God", only after the song bubbled to the surface 'cuz of those naughty lyrics about a God that he doesn't believe in yet addresses nonetheless. Let's face it: the real potential single should have been "Earn Enough for Us"- clever lyrics, strident guitar and drums, and an all-around foot-tapper. (The b-side could have been "Dying", but you get the point.) When it came to O&L, they actually made a pretty decent choice with "Mayor"- but still the words are kind of stupid & silly, not reflective of how deep they really are as a band. Good guitar hook though. "Cynical Days" should have been pushed, but live & learn. As for Nonsuch, "Pumpkinhead" was just the son of Simpleton. Too much gristle on that tune. "The Disappointed" should've been pushed instead, to prove how damned great they are. Hopefully, our boys will get it right soon (before they break up).
