No this isn't an ordinary questions about collaborations. A mate of mine sent me a wav file with a sample of a song by the band Momus. The lyrics are (sung to a vaguely nursery rhymish tune) I've got a pervert doppelganger, He came from over the sea. He hangs around doing sexual crimes, And the blame is getting pinned on me. The blame is getting pinned on me. Whenever that pervert shows his face My friends all think he's me. They give him records by SquarePusher And a box of Japanese tea A box of Japanese green tea. Is this a first? I wish my friends would give me SP records. And japanese tea would go down pretty nicely as well. Andrew C.

Actually Momus is not a band but just one man, Nick Currie, who churns out kind of intellectual pop songs with synthetic flavour and ironic lyrics (if you like Stereolab, do check him out). His WWW page can be found at <http://www.demon.co.uk/momus/>, through which you can also get the WAV. file in question.
