                BODY:
                IN AN interview which accompanies the press release for 
Careful What You Wish For , Texas's first release since their 
five-million-selling
                greatest hits compilation in 2000, Sharleen Spiteri and 
Johnny McElhone cite everyone from The Beach Boys to Killing Joke as 
influences and
                speak of aspiring to the standards of Rumours , Parallel 
Lines and even Purple Rain . In the accompanying press shots taken by Pennie 
Smith,
                Spiteri manages to do Karen O, Chrissie Hynde (or is it 
Bobby Gillespie?), Patti Smith and even Polly Styrene.
