Subject: Thats Entertainment
Allo, right since i've been on this list i've noticed that everyone seems to
like the Charlies album between 10th and 11th, however I thinks it is a pile
of pants. Don't get me wrong, i'm as big a fan of the Charlies as the next,
but except for "Page One" the rest of the songs are rubbish.This Album
compared to the other three just isn't in the same league. Right goodbye then,
Cheezie.
p.s. Dubstar are complete rubbish.

Subject: In commercials
First it was Ride's "Chrome Waves" used as the backing track for the Nike
US Womens' Soccer Team last year and then Elastica's "Connection" for the
Budwiser Blimp commercial (for Christ's sake) and now, last night I was
watching like, the news, or the Sonic's game or something and, well,
y'all know, probably in the UK, too, these Microsoft "Where do you want
to go today?" commercials. Well, the new one has about 10 seconds from
"Life is Sweet", the break down part where it says "Check it", while the
mouse pointer move around clicking various icons.
Boys and girls, it's an "alternative" world we All live in. Well, at
least someone up at Microsoft Palace is listening to Chemical
Brothers/Charlatans..........that can't be a bad thing...or can it.....?

Also, In Canada at least, Lush's "Sweetness and Light" is used in a
Volkswagen commercial.

Sory but youre wrong, it is by far the best album, especially "Can't even
be Bothered", a perfect metaphor for my life
Dubstar are poor but coming to my uni in 2 weeks, should be fun-NOT

And let's not forget Luna's "California" in a Calvin Klein ad! That's almost

I agree it is not the same as the other three, but I like it much more.
There is much more to the songs, lyrically and musically, for me. Have
you ever really LISTENED to it? There are so many sounds in the
background that I didn't catch for the first two years I had it. Then,
at a concert once, Tim called it their most psychedelic record. That
made me rethink it and listen to it differently. Personally, I think
that it is so different from the other three that I wouldn't even venture
to make any kind of comparison

Subject: Re: In commercials
Another example of indie music in adverts;
Blur's "There's No Other Way" was used for a jeans commercial on the
French-Canadian version of MTV (Musique Plus).
I often hear the charlies on those syndicated "Entertainment Tonight"
clones...one time, it was in a story on John Bobbit! ("Polar Bear", I
think).

Hey charlatans
Does everyone know about the new nme website at:
http://www.nme.com
It has a great Timothy Leary article and Manics concert review. It's
not totally on-line yet (for chatgroups etc) but is looking good.
Unfortunately, the Public NME section didn't have any juicy gossip to
report on The Charlatans latest misdeeds and endeavours, so if anyone
here can appease our appetite, just go ahead.
cheers

Happen to die is such a cool song. That whole Over Rising disc is
incredible. I remember being so stoked when that came out,thinking an
album would be released shortly after.Then Me in Time came out and still
no 2nd album. What a depressing time in my life: No Stone Roses and no
Charlies. Had to make do with the likes of blur and the inspirals and
constant re releases courtesy of silvertone. Anyone else have any similar
experience?

o.k. i was reading that tim was into the wu-tang clan. they are a new york
rap group that some feel are the next wave of rap. the new style. the new
fad. there are about 5 or 6 in the group and their big pull is that they are
into martial arts and alias'. the fact about them is that they are just
another 'guns and bitches' hardcore rap group. but that is what tim was
talking about. the fact that they speak about things he has not experienced.
i just wish that tim could listen to some good hip hop (such as de la soul
or the roots) and hear about that stuff from people who think it's the
downfall of the community and wish it could be changed instead of hearing
about it from people who just want to make money!

Hi there!! This is my first post here on the charlatans thingy-mi-jig. So
what was the old news? hehehe!! I haven't a clue!! Maybe you ought to
start and we'll take it from there!! sound like an idea? In the meantime,
here is something completely out of range of the purpose of this list thing.
Here's a top 20 list that'll past the time and serve some kind of purpose in
the humor business!! This is for your reading pleasure!! Enjoy!!
*********************
TWENTY REASONS WHY CHOCOLATE IS BETTER THAN SEX:
1. You can GET chocolate.
2. "If you love me, you'll swallow that" has real meaning with chocolate
3. Chocolate satisfies even when it has gone soft.
4. You can safely have chocolate while you are driving.
5. You can make chocolate last as long as you want it to.
6. You can have chocolate even in front of your mother.
7. If you bite the nuts too hard, the chocolate won't mind.
8. Two people of the same sex can have chocolate without being called nasty
names.
9. The word "commitment" doesn't scare off chocolate.
10. You can have chocolate on top of your workbench/desk during working hours
without upsetting your work mates.
11. You can ask a stranger for chocolate without getting your face slapped.
12. You don't get hairs in your mouth with chocolate (eeww - this one conjurs
up
some vivid pictures)
13. With chocolate, there's no need to fake it.
14. Chocolate doesn't make you pregnant.
15. You can have chocolate any time of the month.
16. Good chocolate is easy to find.
17. You can have as many kinds of chocolate as you can handle.
18. You are never too young or too old for chocolate.
19. When you have chocolate, it does not keep your neighbors awake.
20. With chocolate, size doesn't matter; it's always good.

Ha, Ha! Funny post, Erin, and welcome to the list. We haven't been
talking much, as the Charlie's are kinda in limbo (recording album, and
such). Although, we did have nice discussions about "Jesus Hairdo" and the
Chemical (Dust) brothers, and we also talked for some time about which
celebs wear what brand of trainers. Laugh if you must, but it was fun.
However, I do have a something for us ot talk about. It's somebody's
birthday today but you have to guess who's it is. Hint: there are 3
letters in her name, and it rhymes with den, hen, men, pen, ten, and zen.
I'll say no more, as I don't want to give it away.
Oh, and for those following EURO '96, keep us posted!

Ok, old stuff on the charlies...I was spring cleaning in my closet and desk

found some old pictures of the charlies in an old issue of Select Magazine.
I think it's a 1992 edition. Anyhoo, they've got some great pictures the
the charlies in it!! I never really thought about them back then. That was
during the Jesus Jones era. Hmmmph.. What a disappointment.
I think I'll resurrect those pics and stick them on my wall. There are some
cool Lush and Blur pictures in there too. Whoa. Thank goodness I don't

NON-Charlatans related!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought all the fashion/shoe related posts were quite humorous, but
to bring up the Wu-tang, I gotta respond. Do you have 36 Chambers? Do
you have any of the single members releases? They are an east-coast
thing, that's only starting to pick up hype in the west coast. I don't
know if you have listened to them, but to say it's fact they're just
about guns and bitches isn't accurate. Tim has good taste to be
listening to the Wu-tang. If you do listen to any of them, listen to
Liquid Swords by GZA. He talks about Labels manipulating rap artists,
and about how money rules the world, and about how kids can't be safe
cause there are bullets flying in their neighborhoods. It's an inner
city portrait, GZA paints a picture. It's not all about gangsta rap.
As far as making money goes, I think most bands/artists like the idea
of making money, that way they can keep doing it...

I read the same interview where Tim Burgess slags off the Inspiral
Carpets. Not that that would sway my opinion (although I happen to agree
with him). Just a note to let you all know that there there are a few
keen fans of the Charlatans in Perth and even a couple of local bands
here that draw some of their inspiration from them. If you're ever in
Perth check out Header, Round and, to some extent, Six Mile High.
This being my first message I would like to express my concern that
Between 10th and 11th is considered by many of you to be crap. I know its
quite unlike all the other albums but it has a lot of great sound on it.
And how come Patrol never got the accolades it deserves? Turn it up and
listen to the riff.

Easy on New Order, OK????
The 'World in Motion' is by far the best football song, there is. It was
recorded in the period when England were recognised as a world football
power so I guess Barney and co. had something to cheer about.
Lets treasure those times 'cos they may never repeat again... not soon
anyway ... having seen the Germans, Italians and French playing...!

Sorry mates this has very little to do with the Charlies.
I personally think that Tim has some good taste in Choosing the wu-tang. that's
where method man, ole' dirty bastard, and redman came from. Although, I only
OCCASIONALLY listen to method man; I'm not "down" with the hip hop scene, ken?
But sometimes I need a little more than the hammond organs, beatles esque
guitars, or trip pop type music. (there are 3 bands in the before sentence- can
you guess which three? :) ) I'm not here to defend hip hop an that, but I just
wanted to babble about how Tim made a good choice in the wu-tang, ken? I mean
he could've gone with fuckin ice t or that punter snoop dog. I think this just
shows that Tim (as always) has great taste. Sorry fer me babbling.

Here here, I'd say the late eighties early nineties was a terribly tastie
year to imbibe tunes. Tekno was a new word and music lept to a new level.
The SUMMER OF LOVE was 88 and 89 in england and the charlies were a band
inspired by the world that surrounded them. E and A use was on the rise and
the underground clubs like THE HACIENDA thrived before their demise to a
very american (dare I let the hideious words pass my lips). But dear England
rose to the highest level of savior faire seen to date. the charlies
keyinintadisset dared to combine the forces of basic deep house roots and
create the most influential Manchester band ever to grace great B? I think
so sad the drunk with a blunt to back the attack.
DOES ANYONE HEAR ME?
P.S. WE here in the states who subscribe to MUSIC oriented boards do not

Ha! The Inspirals were nothing but sad, pathetic-looking Roses wannabes who
emerged purely to hop on the baggy bandwagon and earn a few bucks. Fair
play then I suppose, but in all the time they were around (which was
remarkably long for these fly-by-night cowboys), couldn't they have at
least produced one decent tune?
P.S. And don't give me none of the 'This is How it Feels' bollocks.

okay i thought morthside were great. i still do actually. they remind me

I never hated the inspiral carpets either; in fact I've always enjoyed
"Life". However, in comparison to the other bands concerned in that
era, they were clearly on a lower level.
