btw what are the best records by Sparks?

 

any of these???

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sparks should work with Morrissey - now THAT would be musical heaven.

 

Franz Ferdinand are about as entertaining as a funeral... not my thing at all....

I loved the early stuff... the Angst in my Pants album was brilliant - but their work with Giorgio Moroder remains my favourite by them - Beat The Clock and Number One Song In Heaven were terrific singles.

they are supposed to be an influence on him as well

It's generally supposed that Sparks' best song is 'This Town Aint Big Enough For The Both Of Us'.

 

This is pretty exciting news though. I love Franz Ferdinand and Sparks are ace too.

I actually prefer Siouxsie and the Banshees version of This Town Aint Big Enough (from their Through The Looking Glass covers album). Class.

Enjoyed the vids. Thanks for posting :thumbup:

 

From a purely egotistical point of view I enjoyed Perfume, it is nice to hear a song with my name in other than Song for Whoever and Disco 2000 ^_^

Disco 2000 this is the pulp song you are going on about

 

actaully i think pulp also have taken a lot of their ideas from sparks as well. a few weeks ago when the jarvis single was out there clip of them performing a tv promo spot for one of their singles and it was very like if you were watching a sparks performance from the early 1970s when there's more people on stage (but with Candida Doyle instead).
