Urusei-Yatsura - We Are Urusei Yatsura
We Had This Song For Quite A Long Time And It Was On The Way Out Of Our Set To Be Replaced By Siamese As A Set Closer By The Time We Recorded The Album. We Had Played It For John Peel When He And Walters Had Dropped In At The 13thNote To Offer Us Our First Session So We Thought It Was Lucky For Us And Possibly A Good Album Closer. We Liked Having A Song That Could Degenerate Into Chaos And This One Featured A Toy Spaceship That I Would “play” By Holding The Speaker To My Guitar Pickup And A Talking Tina Doll That Repeated Some Apropos Sentences Played In The Same Way. We Looked At The Cutesiness Of The Dolls And Ray Guns And Record Covers As A Provocation A Way To Be Anti-Rock N Roll While Indulging In The Trappings Of It In Some Small Way. We Loved Noise And Chaos But We Knew The Sweetness And Emotionality And The Visuals Would Put The Right People Off. We Gained A Following Of Fanzine Kids And Teenage Girls And Were Absolutely Barred From Jools Holland So I Count That As Success. Anyway I Wish I Had Taken Another Run At My Guitar On This It’s Very Out Of Time. Talking Tina Has The Last Word.
