Somehow it didn't occur to me that any of the lyrics were actually in English, despite sounding quite Englishlike. For those who like stories to have resolutions,
I found a vid with the right song in decent quality, thanks to Seethe's actions. Thanks, Seethe! And Glu, too, for your efforts.
And now, to decide whether, now that I've heard the whole thing, I want an mp3 of it!
"You haven't told me what I'm looking for."
"Anything that might be of interest to Slitscan. Which is to say, anything that might be of interest to Slitscan's audience. Which is best visualized as a vicious, lazy, profoundly ignorant, perpetually hungry organism craving the warm god-flesh of the anointed. Personally I like to imagine something the size of a baby hippo, the color of a week-old boiled potato, that lives by itself, in the dark, in a double-wide on the outskirts of Topeka. It's covered with eyes and it sweats constantly. The sweat runs into those eyes and makes them sting. It has no mouth, Laney, no genitals, and can only express its mute extremes of murderous rage and infantile desire by changing the channels on a universal remote. Or by voting in presidential elections."
--Colin Laney and Kathy Torrance, William Gibson's Idoru
