Alex S Pass level: Access All Areas Registered: Thu, 04 Nov 2004 20:00:00 Posts: 924 Loc: Sheffield, UK	Does anybody know why Underpass was originally called Overpass? (not that it makes a great deal of difference, I'm just curious!)

Luca Pass level: Green Room Registered: Wed, 28 May 2003 20:00:00 Posts: 197 Loc: Italy	I always thought that "Underpass" was the original title, while "Overpass" was meant to signify a more beefed-up version... Have you got any references to this?

Alex S Pass level: Access All Areas Registered: Thu, 04 Nov 2004 20:00:00 Posts: 924 Loc: Sheffield, UK	I'm sure it's in the notes in the booklet of last year's Omnidelic Exotour / Golden Section tour reissue. There's a short description on one of the pages of a selection of songs.

birdsong Pass level: Access All Areas Registered: Fri, 08 Oct 2004 20:00:00 Posts: 640 Loc: southampton	I'm reading the Atrocity Exhibition again at the moment - Metamatic is a veritable soundtrack to this wonderful book!!! You do get a very different view from "under" of course, rather than "over". It could just be a careful choice of words. By using "underpass" ( a more 'English' word) there is a suggestion of letting things go by overhead without being part of it and no-one would know you were there. You'd be more aware too of the sounds, the concrete, the automobiles. Am I rambling...?

Being the proud owner of an Exotour original and not caring much about live recordings I didn't bother to buy that double CD. But I forgot how sometimes JF liner notes can be very enlightening... the notes to "Assembly" are the best concise story of contemporary pop music I ever read.

Herbert the turbot Pass level: Green Room Registered: Mon, 28 Oct 2002 20:00:00 Posts: 107 Loc: Barnsley	"Underpass" was actually originally called "Underpants" and concerned John's quest for snugly fitting undergarments. Likewise 'The Garden' was originally called 'The Garter'....

Well, I used to wear boxers Now they're all worn Wasn't it some...thing... They warmed somebody's bum Underpants! Underpants! Scouring through the britches I think I like those They're comfy at the same...time... Leg, leg, bum Underpants! Underpants! Snuggly on my ass now Crumpled on the floor They'll last for years...now... Leg, leg, bum Leg, leg, bum Leg, leg, bum Leg, leg, bum Leg, leg... Underpants! Underpants! Underpants! Underpants!

I'm also working on a mimimalist composition about teenage angst and comfortably intimate woollens, called MY SOCKS . . .

Mrs. X Pass level: Access All Areas Registered: Tue, 01 Jun 2004 20:00:00 Posts: 2664 Loc: Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada	A parody contest! Brilliant! This brings to mind Flip Martian's unfinished story (which I love) called I Want To Be An Ice Cream. He should turn that into a song, and the there were the other parody titles on the front page of the story, like "The Pan That Fries Every Day," and "My Sacks." What do you say, Flip? Who would judge this one? Warren as well? Could he handle it?!?! Mrs. X

You're welcome. Can't really see an Ultravox-like "Shaddup Your Face" though. Wouldn't sound good, and I think Warren would blacklist the person responsible! I'd rather stay in his good books.

Actually, since you mentioned it, I must give credit to Mr. X for the "leg leg bum" bit, as I couldn't think of anything in place of "click click drone!"

I had half an hour to kill I want to be an Ice Cream I hate the cones and the coke floats Licked by the Brighton Belle While seagull gourmets circle overhead To pick off your ‘Strawberry Choc Shell’ ‘Vorsprung Durch Technik’ An Audi passes by In tracks left by the tyres, ladies What’s left of your ‘99’ As I spy the photographers Snapping models beneath the pier Chorus: I want to be an Ice Cream I want to be an Ice Cream I want to be an Ice Cream I want to be an Ice Cream I stole a ‘Funny face’ from the cameramen And an opened can of pop In the doorway of a video store I sink my teeth into their lollipop If I had the cash and the means I’d buy my own Ice cream treats But right now I’d steal an unfinished ‘Cornetto’ From the sweaty grasp of my friends I hope your fridges are all safe from me I want to steal your Ice Cream I want to steal your Ice Cream I want to steal your Ice Cream I want to steal your Ice Cream Not for me, scrambled eggs A fry up, I couldn’t care less Let the sunburnt tourists get their thrills From a Jellied Eel stall in Shoeburyness Give me a stolen ‘Tango’ And a ‘magnum’ nicked from a dozy mare I’ll run away with what I’ve ‘borrowed’ Leaving my pockets with cash to spare For the arcades and the amusements beside the sea I want to steal your Ice Cream I want to steal your Ice Cream I want to steal your Ice Cream I want to steal your Ice Cream Walls!
