Forbidden,Etc. RE: The Vote The Vote So Far Videos? TBLTN on Ebay ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: Songs? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was reading about the person who'd made a tape of favorite Femmes' songs, and I hate to admit this, but I haven't heard the songs below. I've been a fan for 10 years, and I'd like to know where I can get these songs. Any help would be great. Raquel Yes Oh Yes Positively 4th Street Requiem for Nico Reckless Stones Shakuhachi copern100 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Forbidden,Etc. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I think it is cool that the Femmes took the lyrics for "Forbidden" from a William Carlos Williams poem. I haven't read much of his writings, but I am a fan of the "writers from the Beat Generation," with Jack Kerouac being one of my favorite authors. On another subject, ever since I have visited the website, http://therapy.lost.net.au/femmes, I have been wondering why this site has been approved by the "Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ." Is that just some sort of joke? Mike mike_bulldog PS: -I vote for "All I Want" to be requested. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: The Vote ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My decision for which to song to vote for was a hard one. I really like Sleepwalkin, and always have, since the first time heard it. But then again, Its Gonna Rain is a very good song and a good thought. but I think i'll have to go with Sleepwalkin. and by the way... thanks to jonathan for sendin in the link to the pics. I enjoyed em.

I am interested in a video of amercian music performed on the dennis miller show or their appearance on sabrina the teenagae witch,. does anyone have these or the '84 concert tape that they could possibly dupe for me? all costs would be paid my me of course. thanks Lazar921 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TBLTN on Ebay ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For those of you who are true, hardcore fans, you'll be interesed to know that the import version of "The Blind Leading the Naked" is on eBay until Monday, July 16.
