Awesome. I almost spit out my coffee when I saw that photo actually. hahaha You look "with child" there. I never thought I'd see the day.

Can't wait for this though!

I give kudos even though I think they're pretty lame. Only for you Jarvis. Only for you. ;)

He does look pregnant. About 8 months in, I'd say. But is it a Mars baby? I tried to warn you, Jarvis...now look at the mess you've gotten yourself into!

Bloody Hell.

I thought fat and you, if combined, would create a black hole or something.

But excellent cover, one of the sharpest tracks of the album too.

Now that you're a fat kid expect the government to soon target your mum and dad with a parenting order! Cake mix even with acid plus any lardy snacks and deep fried stuff soon to be banned following the ban on smoking. I'm getting in my deep friend Mars bars whilst I can...

I am not sure I understand the seeming facination with large people on this album, but at least it produced two of my favorite new songs, Fat Children and Big Julie! These songs nearly ripped my face off at the NYC show!

size=3'> . . . And THAT is how Fat Children Are Made. Jarvis, won't you please write a song/remix about mouth breathers? I digress, but at the supermarket I saw a triple stroller/pram filled with three children of varying ages who were gawking at me with sinister speculation like they were figuring out a way to rid the earth of people like me. I was a bit spooked. Children.. Future water torturers or Harmless innocents? Then I noticed the oddity of the situation.. they were mouth breathers and I could feel the heat coming off them like a sweat lodge. ;) Any ways, I love this song... lyrics of course, the producing is beautiful and right on and the pacing and intensity gives me shivers. I'm sure I'm not alone in that!

Wishing you much fun and revelry on tour!!

xoxo,
warm leatherette
