The X-Files Soundtrack
fa9...@tvlbg.ac.at
I have read in the Austrian TV-text-system that there will be a
new REM-song on the soundtrack of the X-Files movie.
William S. Borroughs is speaking the introduction words on
the REM song.
The soundtrack contains a lot of alternative stuff
Mfg Johannes Wittwer
Marcus Ogden
The soundtrack is out over here (UK), and the R.E.M./William
Burroughs song is a remake of "Fuck Me Kitten".

I always figured the guys were trying to slip a "foul-mouthed" song past
the censors and avoid a "Parental Advisory" sticker (good thing they did
or I never would've had Automatic as early as I did). I always counted
the title as a three-step evolution from "Fuck Me Kitten":
Fuck Me Kitten -- "We gotta change the title!"
F*** Me Kitten -- "Still kinda obvious..."
**** Me Kitten -- "Hmmm..."
Star Me Kitten -- "Bingo!"
I often confuse friends by dropping out of a conversation for 5 seconds or
so, then coming back with something indirectly associated with the current
topic. Example:
Topic is: beer
I think of: Bass ale
Then I think of: Center for Talented Youth staff parties (summer 1994, Skidmore
College campus, Saratoga, NY)
Then I say: "You know, the Skidmore College campus is positively overrun
with squirrels."
Thus jumping from beer to squirrels... Girl female women* do this more
than men (most of us men just can't shut up long enough to think when
there's five or more of us together in a room). R.E.M. does this quite
frequently, which is probably why I enjoy them so much (and most of my
male friends don't).
* if you know who used to say "girl female women" a lot, you might be a
Southerner.

It is only called Star Me Kitten because they wouldn't have been
allowed to call it Fuck Me Kitten.

-> allowed to call it Fuck Me Kitten.
Yes they would have... You can name anything anything... The Sugarcubes
have a song called "Fucking in Rhythm" or something to that effect, and
remember Metallica's release, "Live Shit"? I think the band was just
being tasteful, and didn't want the word fuck on the album cover.

Okay, so they weren't allowed to call it "Fuck Me Kitten." Valid point,
however, since they decided to call it "Star Me Kitten," and have
released it as such, why would you not call it by its given title? By
calling it "FMK", you would be starting a train of thought that says it's
okay to rename any song based on what you feel is more appropriate,
disregarding its given title. Calling it "FMK" indirectly condones the
bootleggers who renamed "Pop Song 89" on _Animal Attractions_ to "She
will talk about the weather." Heck, I would prefer to call "Swan Swan H"
anything other than "Swan Swan H," but that doesn't give me the license
to rename it. Does this make any sense?

"Fuck Me Kitten" in interviews. Even on Rockline. So if that's what they
consider the real title, why not go along with it? As for the latter. I just
call it "Swan Swan" and leave off the "H". Now what's the consensus on
pronouncing "9-9"? "Nine nine"? "Nine to nine"? "Nine line nine"? "Nine
minus nine"? "The ninth track on Murmur"? "Conversation fear"?

Kitten" but Warner Bros. wouldn't let them use that for the
name like the Rolling Stones Starfucker which had to be
changed to Star Star, so it was changed for "official"
purposes to star me kitten

song that's on murmur".......I usually call it "nine nine".......do you guys
think that's right?It could also be called "zero" because, thanks to MJ
without whom I'd never have thought to call it "nine minus nine", 9-9=0(zero)

I've always heard it pronounced "nine to nine", as in a score. Maybe it's
some kind of twisted ping-pong score. Or pool -- hey, based on "We
Walk", everyone knows that they were really into playing pool during the
recording of Murmur.
