I suppose the message we should all take away with us from Even Men With Steel Hearts (Love To See A Dog On The Pitch) is that despite all the terrible things which go on in this fast moving, ever changing world in which we find ourselves, the indomitable spirit of human nature will always shine through. Except it won’t. Probably.

I think it’s a “faithless pantomime” that needs be smited, rather than any promotional underwear for that band.

And I think you’re absolutely right. Duly amended (it did read “pants of mine”, which sounds like something off some eastern European lyrics site, come to think of it. Apologies all).

I think it is, “It generates a warmth around the ground that all goes well for my kind”

@Matt – nah – it’s definitely “augurs well for mankind”

Cool, never heard of the word ‘augers’

OK, if FIFA want to ban the snood (see news item on the lyrics page for this song) shouldn’t they also ban Marouane Fellaini’s hair? Surely it’s as dangerous as a snood – players or officials could become entangled in it and need to be cut free by the fire brigade.

I always hear it as ‘sheep of green’, rather than ‘sheep are green’. Mostly because of the ‘trees of green, red roses too’ line in the Armstrong. It could just be because that’s what I expect to hear though.

One of the tracks on the new Puressence album (which is a blinder, by the way) is called Cape Of No Hope (Water’s Edge). Wonder if James Mudriczki’s a fan?

Dog 7-1 with Ladbrokes. Make it happen, bass player.

I think Ladbrokes need to have another look at those odds. I reckon I’ve got a fighting chance of sneaking a penguin into the Sporty D Arena, but I’d struggle to get an elephant in. Both 250-1.
A donkey at 100-1 may well generate a warmth around the ground that augurs well for mankind, but a tiger at the same odds? Unlikely.

There’s a painting by Benjamin William Leader entitled The Stream In Summertime, depicting a peaceful pastoral scene. Notably devoid of larks and bells, mind.

Even Olympic men’s road racers with steel frames will wince at this one 0:10 – 0:18 (apologies for the language as the peloton comes through).

Ouch. Someone, I forget who, possibly David Millar, was asked for advice on riding the Tour De France. He replied, you should learn to swear in several languages, your teammates will respect your attempts to communicate.
