Just like it as a tune with good melodies

Was that the one with the line "Homo superior in my posterior" or something?Originally Posted by flourbasher
His "come out of the closet" song?
Have to say I prefer something a bit more subtle.
"Singles Going Steady" is all you really need from the Buzzcocks.

Yes, that one sounds very David Bowie/Marc Almond influenced. I remember reading an interview with Pete Shelley during the heyday of punk, when he was asked which bands he liked listening to. Rather surprisingly he said Can, and mentioned some other German electronic bands - so that was probably always ticking away in the background

"Homo superior in my interior".
It was slightly more subtle than I remember
But yes that was his "coming out" song.

Though their lyrics weren't as explicitly political, as some of the other bands around in the late 70's, Pete Shelley did say. their songs weren't gender and ***uality specific. Plus they did play Rock Against Racism carnivals and gigs.
