In celebration of David Sylvian’s birthday, three new official T-shirts (shop.davidsylvian.com/collections/...) are now available. Each piece is printed on premium black cotton and created with the highest attention to detail. The collection is designed by renowned creative director Chris Bigg.
a cover version is acceptable. this is too easy. 'artists' keep working with manafon tracks because of the ease with which one can isolate the vocal track. 'recomposed'? it's a matter of 'how do i make this track sound like sylvian's more accessible work'. you don't. you leave it be.

why always a negative when it impacts your life and bypasses my own. those four records do not belong to me. i don't own them nor will my children but they are, in whatever small amount, benefiting other's. when told albums are being released i have two choices, leave well alone, or engage. choice?
