"Doctor, Doctor...Gimmie the news...I Gotta...BAD CAAAAASE...of lovin youuuuu....No pill's gonna cure my ill...." [Edited 10/27/09 17:12pm] | |

I liked a couple of their songs when I was younger, especially Hold Me Now I've lost the use of my heart, But I'm still alive, Still looking for the life, The endless pool on the other side, It's a wild wild west, I'm doing my best, I'm a soldier of love, Every day and night, I'm soldier of love, All the days of my life. | |

Love that song and the album
I have a vinyl copy of "Into the gap" with a bonus record of remixes including an 8 and a hlaf minute version of Into the Gap. (Its in my storage unit). Thompsons were one of the first groups I was into, I was like 8 at the time. Alannah Currie is well known here in NZ as an environmental activist. I believed she even lived here for a while in Nelson. So what are u going 2 do? R u just gonna sit there and watch? I'm not gonna stop until the war is over. Its gonna take a long time | |
