99年時還蠻輕鬆好笑的一篇聊天文.....來點有趣的Mansun吧:p
How do you feel, after changing your name from Manson, about Charles Manson
now spelling his name with a 'U'? (Oliver Kirkland, Birmingham)
Paul: "Really? He does? (It's true - at a recent court appearance, Manson
spelt out his name aloud as M-A-N-S-U-N to the clerk) Brilliant! Maybe we
should sue him!"
Chad: "There was a fella in the audience in one place in the States dancing
on his own who we were convinced was Charles Manson."
Stove: "We get quite a few Manson lookalikes at our gigs."
Have you ever seen a ghost? (Andrew Taylor-Gammon, Exeter)
Chad: "I had a haunted room when I was at college in the house that I shared.
We had this cat who used to come in to the room and just sit, staring into
one corner making a low, howling sound. And I had one of those old-fashioned
alarm clocks with the bell - and during the night I'd get woken up by the
alarm clock shuffling around on the table next to me."
Stove: "I remember when Uri Geller stopped all the clocks in the country and
the clock in our house stopped. (General silence, of the 'what are you on
about?' nature) Well, what's up with you? You believed his story!? He's going
on about his alarm clock and you're all awestruck and I tell you about my
clock and you're like, 'Wanker!'"
To which authority do you cower? (God, Heaven)
Chad: "That can't be from God, it's not written in Hebrew."
Paul: "I suppose you end up cowering to fucking everything life throws at
you. Or you can protest all the time. You can pretend you're a non-conformist
by wearing a T-shirt that says, 'I Don't Conform' but I suppose everyone
buckles under. You can hide behind the excuse that you're fighting within
the system but..."
Are there ever any problems between Paul and Chad given that they share a
house together and work together - and do Andie and Stove ever feel left out
of this close friendship? (Laura, Kent)
Stove: "I wouldn't particularly want to make up a love triangle with them
two." (←欠揍XD)
Chad: "I think Paul's about the only person who could cope with seeing me
across the landing first thing every morning."
Stove: "A sight to behold."
Paul: "I'll tell you something that pisses me off about you, Chad, is that
you always steal my mail."
Chad: "Do I?"
Paul: "And if I look under your bed, like, six weeks later, my mail's always
under his bed. Because what happens is, he gets up in the morning, still half
asleep, goes down, fetches all the mail, takes it into his room and forgets
all about it. So I never get any letters off anybody." (XDXD)
If Mansun were The Young Ones, who would be who (ie, Rik, Neil, Vyvyan and
Mike)? (Katie and Kelly, Widnes & Runcorn)
Paul: "Stove would be Mike. Definitely. I'd be Rik."
Andie: "I'd be Vyvyan."
Chad: "Actually, I'd like to be Alexei Sayle."
Why do you think there is such a huge quantity of Mansun websites and
fanzines dedicated to the band? (Kate, Mansun's Secret Love Bunker)
Paul: "There's certainly loads and loads of them. Maybe because we're a bit
underground, really, nobody gets to read that much about us, we're not on TV
very much, so they end up making up their own magazines, create their own
media. It's very helpful."
Paul, style-wise, do you regret the 'quiff and 'tache' combination you
sported in the early months of '97? (Suzi, St Ives)
Paul: "That wasn't a 'tache, that was a goatee! It's just that I wasn't very
good at growing a beard."
Why do you still wear a cross and chain in view of your negative opinion on
religion and the hypocrisy you see therein? (MGB)
Paul: "I've got an upside- down cross which I wear quite a bit, the
anti-Catholic inverted one. This one here, the big one, is my nan's, I wear
it for family reasons."
Are you the new Marillion? (Mark Freeman, Berks)
Paul: "Er... yes, or no? Can we duck out of this one? We've met Fish. We
wouldn't want to hurt his feelings, he's a big guy!"

All come crashing down, your desperate icon. You've got to gob on, your
desperate icon. You'll all come crashing in, your desperate icon You've got
to gob on, your desperate icon. Am I a God or am I Jesus? Am I a man or am
I a boy? Do I feel love or just possession? Do I feel holy or nothing at all?
You can't deny, That your shit just tastes as sweet as mine. And you can't
deny, That your shit just tastes as sweet as mine. Sweet Jesus.
