    Used to knock around with Siouxsie Sioux's niece when I was a kid. Nice girl - but mad as a box of frogs. She lives in New Zealand now. Always thought the banshees were shite.

    Love in a Void
    Voices
    Suburban Relapse
    and of course...
    The Lord's Prayer

    I'm with Leroy, always thought they were shite. Saw them live once as well and I think they were the worst "punk" band I ever saw live.

    Brilliant band.
    And they named a song after me.......

    Queue sarcastic comments using other of their song titles ;-)

    I am a strawberry Queen :-D

    Would that be Christine, which I believe was about a real person; a schizophrenic with 36 identifiable personalities?
    Do you identify with the song at all ;-)

    saw her at the roundhouse about 18 months ago,she'd lost a bit but still enjoyed the gig. i always had a bit of a thing for her but when i saw her on "i'm in a rock and roll band" recently, realised i must have been many miles from the stage!

    i photographed the cover of her "swimming horses" album and is my only claim to fame.
