I have heard of them
I don't think I know of or own any of their stuff though. I'm listening to Elbow right now.

Close but no cigar
I have a mate who has dislocate-y shoulders who can do it, though. And I can put my ankles behind my head, surely that's just as good if not better?

As good a live version as you'll hear.

Ahhhhh I love this song
I saw them at Latitude, they were on before Sigur Ros. I sat there with some people I'd just met, swapped some of my spliffs for their warm cider and generally had an incredible time watching the band and the sun go down. Brrr. Shivers down my spine, it was that good.

I saw them play at The Fleece in Bristol several years back
It seemed to take them ages to have sort of commercial success.

Strange.

Yes, I remember reading an interview where they said as much
I got in to them after I heard their cover of Teardrop, which I'm sure you've heard but if not:

I have heard it.
But not in ages.

The singer in a strange man isn't he? Appearance of a binman, voice of an angel.

It's a fantastic cover
and yes, that is very fitting. I can't think of many other instances where someone looks so unlike their voice sounds - David Gray is another one.

Looks like a cunt but sounds like a cock?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 23 Feb 2011, 23:11, Reply)

No.
doesn't look like his voice sounds. I'm not a big fan but that's going a bit far isn't it?

So I believe
double digits tomorrow. Meant to freeze again at the weekend though. Bloody weather - doesn't it know we're all bored of winter? I want it to be SPRING.

When are you off on your holidays?

Can. Not. Wait.

How long are you away for?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 23 Feb 2011, 23:25, Reply)

10 days
I get back on 7th May. Still can't persuade anyone to come with me though :(

You'll have more fun on your own.
No one telling you what to do, where to go and what to eat.

Are you moving about a bit, or staying in one place?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 23 Feb 2011, 23:30, Reply)

Well, that's how I'm selling it to myself, yes
I don't mind really, it'd just be nice to have some company. I'm flying in to Dubrovnik, staying there for a few days, hope to catch some of the towns in islands (Hvar/Stari Grad particularly) then up to Split for a few days, see Trogir and Sibenik and maybe get up to the Plitvice lakes if I can find a bus that goes and somewhere to stay.
