http://lineout.thestranger.com/2007/01/id_like_your_hair_long So I just got my hair cut (Robin at Halo on 3rd always does such a lovely job).

Derided as an Orange Juice ripoff by some, they nonetheless had some great pop songs: "Love Plus One" and "Favourite Shirt". And some great sweaters. And some great lips on prettyboy Nick Heyward, who's solo records are pretty good too.

A couple of years ago a recording surfaced of their "missing" last album, sans Nick's vocals -- he left the group before recording them. Weird but fun in a bouncy island sort of way.

There's nothing better to sing while walking down the street than a few choruses of "Love plus, love plus wuh-unn". Might cause public dancing, though, which can be dangerous.

In the weeks or months before though, it's all Wesley Willis: "Take your ass to the barbershop /
Tell the barber that you're sick of looking like an asshole"

nick heyward was my neighbor when i lived in england. he once stepped on my foot at the green grocer and apologized profusely. his lovely manners made me like his pop hits even more.

well, that and those juicy lips you mention.

In England, YOU apologize when someone steps on your foot!
