[kj] OT: U2: Electric Co

[nicholas fitzpatrick]

Yes, why that song of all songs? I hate it. It reminds me of when someone 
sang it on the Muppets. I think that must have been my first experience of 
depression. But in the context of Electric Co, I like it. It's not the same 
without it. Electric Co also borrows of course from Leonard Bernstein's West 
Side Story which is my favourite musical off all time. Ballet dancing New 
York street gangs - it's the end of the world as we know it.
