4st 7lb unpluged. Interesting.
Eheh, there's a point where the vocalist loses his breath.

Anyway, cute overall.

Is this why the Manics have just covered Wake Up Boo?

I think someone who doesn't like Show Me The Wonder may have had a sarcastic moment! (Or you have just trapped me with your meta-irony)

No, I take things/jokes quite literally, so taking the piss out of me (esp in person) is a pure joy.
and I really hoped they did a cover.

I don't dislike Show Me The Wonder. But it does sound a bit like Wake Up Boo!

I thoroughly believe that! James has a Rammstein one, for when the baby is quiet!

their version's pretty good as cover versions go. If you only know wake up boo then you wonder why on earth they'd pick 4st 7lbs to cover. hearing giant steps it makes a bit more sense

A brief google seems to indicate this was originally on a Simon Mayo Radio show in 1995, does anyone know if ever got a proper release of any kind? This "long lost CD", was it an official one?
