HIAHB makes it so clear that Meat is "over" Jim...
I mean, really??
The boy has grown into a man and no matter how hard he tries, Neverland is forever beyond his reach... A mere memory, something that he dreamt about, something he longs for but can never have again...

And I think he knows it...
Why else would he be doing the tour he's doing???
I'm not complaining... the full BOOH album, and Objects made the cut... it's the line-up of my dreams... IF his voice holds!
(from what I hear, it's more a matter of being out of time/key than vocal quality, really...
he must be the only person in the world whose singing suffered from taking vocal lessons??? lol lol)


As for who else could sing Body...
vocally, any number of people could do it... but that level of emotion... true, that would have to be Meat...

-K-
Ah fuck it... I DO hope the rumours are true... to have those two legends together once more... oh boy!
Let's be honest, they could read from the phone book together and I'd pay to see it!!!!
