Mercy, Sisters of

Call it a mid life crisis, but I have been a fiend for music of my college years. I have been on an I-tunes mission, snapping up digital versions of my vinyl. Everything from New Order, to the Sisters Of Mercy. I guess I could go out and buy that turntable that allows you to digitize your vinyl, but why, for 99 cents each I can get "Lucretia in My Reflection" and then while waiting for the download get some other tunes by the Sisters that I have forgotten. "More" for instance. I-tunes is great,for Apple anyway because it naturally leads you to buy more. Like after listening to "more" by SOM, I'm thing I really should buy "Beers, Steers, and Queers", cause it naturally follows on that i-mix that I clicked over too... hold on I am going to buy it, never owned the vinyl of it, never really liked the song, but it does remind me of a night at The Smart Bar when Dana, Natalie and I were sitting on this electrical sculpture "thinnie" and we were all getting a little shock from it, but were either too drunk, or too cool to move and I'm pretty sure that the Revolting Cocks were playing at the time(Line from the song "come on boy drop those britches... Squeal like a pig"). And I know that it was at the smart bar one night it was either too "Kooler than Jesus" or "A Girl Doesn't Get Killed by a Make believe Lover...Cause its Hot" both by My Life with a Thrill Kill Cult" that a guy was dancing out of control, and must have hit a slippery spot on the sawdust covered dancefloor and fell so hard you heard his teeth hit that nasty floor.
Now the memory wheel is really turning, "The Walk" by the Cure would get the "whitchy whitchy, all black hoop earring girls" all doing that progessive three step on the dancefloor/dart board area at O'Hooleys, ahh good times.
Look, another song found, its just 99 cents more, I've been in a kind of a Depeche Mode mood lately, and here is "Shake the Disease" which I actually own on CD but this has been remixed by Tiga, I've been digging him lately, (and The Martini Bros) so now the best of both worlds right?
While I'm waiting for DM, looks like folks that bought this also bought Simply Red? That's odd, not a natural pairing... I'll have to check it out. When I do I realize that its a new Simply Red song, never really a fan, but after 30 seconds, I'm digging "Perfect Love" but I can't decide on which mix of it, they are only 99 cent each so I'll get both.
Looking at the listeners that bought section (damn them) I see Gus Gus there, now either Bjork, or Gus Gus was one of the last concerts that I went too, in a small venue, and they were both great. I give the tune a listen, and of course, 99 cent later "Need in Me" is down loading, I'm beginning to think this is a little irresponsible of me, but its only 99 cents right?
