Artist: XTC
Album: Drums & Wires, Transistor Blast, Live And More
Song Notes: Possibly the XTC song that wasn't actually ever a single to show up on the most singles. There's a few different live versions floating around as various b-sides and EP tracks, and they're all really very good, actually. I really like this song, particularly in the live versions where they go, what Andy Partridge refers to as "dub-supernova" on the outro. The original version is very good, too. It's based on a german fairytale about a guy who snips off body parts of bad children. Oh, those Germans! - Rev. Syung Myung Me
