Lovely Little BBC Biography
The BBC online has a fine capsule biography of the Beautiful South, even including the "differences" that the band has had with some, er, all of its female members. But don't let that stop you from bookmarking the Biscuit Boy site.

Biscuit Boy Online
Despite the push back of his first single, Mitch, to the 3rd of September, the Crackerman's Biscuit Boy website has hurtled online with a bit of humor, a mailing list, and the promise of lots of streaming treats. Once you've registered for the BB list, you'll have the power to stream the full-length Mitch video until you're heart sings with country lovin'.

Lyrics to Mitch (Transcribed by LFW)
Compare these Lyrics to the Radio Version or Video
How can I turn this red cross back into a tick
Like how come I turn good looks into frail and sick
Not only did I blind the blind but I also took their stick
I've crippled myself with a baseball bat and a brick
Chorus:
Most other men like to whine about the seven year itch
They're the same men who call you a liar and bitch
But you're the reason I'm still here and not facing a ditch, Mitch
and they're a lot poorer than me, I'm incredibly rich
Until I watch them lower my coffin deep down in the grave
Until I hear the digging sound of soil and spade
There doesn't seem a single person able to persuade
This self-indulgent idiot's the easiest laid.
Repeat Chorus
And if there's a way to pay you back before I die
If there's one little prayer I can answer, I'll try
or write these words in clouds on the bluest of skies
The best pair of ears to a man who just wanted to cry
The best pair of ears to a man who just wanted to cry
How did I screw up and throw such a beautiful chance
Turn down every women that asked me up to dance
You'll stab me with the truth, use a sword, use a lance
I still think two steps back is the way to advance
Repeat Chorus
Or write these words in clouds on the bluest of skies
The best pair of ears to a man who just wanted to cry
The best pair of ears to a man who just wanted to cry
Cry cry cry cry

Chew on Some Mitch
Courtesy of our Spanish comrade Pablo, with AV support from David, you can now enjoy the full and unadulterated "Mitch" as broadcast on the radio this week. Obviously, we have no intention of infringing on our boy PDH's record sales, so make sure you sign up with Ian and Donna at Changes One (the only Beautiful South specialty retailer online) to get your copy of the Biscuit Boy album and single when they're released.

Bisuit Boy Album Not Ready for Digestion
Word from our retailer friends (hell, Ian from Changes One) is that the single "Mitch" will be pushed back to 3rd September, and the album "Fat Chance" will be delayed until 10th September. So, take another breath of fresh air, then resume holding your breath.
