[kathryn@kath]

i am not sure of the name of the song nor the singer but part of the lyrics say " i am not looking for a new religion" can anyone help

[4getmenot]

I cant find those lyrics anywhere but are you thinking of New England - Kirsty McColl

Billy Bragg wrote and recorded it originally : )

[makemesmile]

Sorry, that's probably not the one you're after - didn't read q properly : )

[helliebobs]

Unless she has misheard the lyric 'new religion' for 'new england' perhaps?

[Whickerman]

GAH!!!!! I can't think of it... Not New England though

I'll be back

[serendipity1]

[martymoose]

only thing can think of is kirsty mccall,
"im not looking for a new england"


probs isnt the one yr thinking of but might help

[4getmenot]

It isnt the one, we've all suggested that. I cant think what else though :-)

[kathryn@kath]

thanks for all you help. if it helps the singer sounds like a cross between johnny cash, nick cave and leonard cohen

[4getmenot]

So would you say its an old song?

[kathryn@kath]

not sure about when it came out. but it has featured in the Lword on sky tv
