    I just found 15 cds of 'Operation Fascination'. These were used for the promo campaign in 2010 but knowing this was the only chance I was going to have to press a physical product, I went for a full-scale production. It's a lovely thing to behold. The cover art by Pippa Ashton incorporating Gemma Cossins' photo. The liner notes list a Myspace page, ha! Comes with a digital copy of the album. I will sign it if you want. Ships media mail in the U.S.

about

Kate’s song. A live favourite from the beginning, "to combat all that American optimism" as she put it at our second gig (The Metro, Oxford Street).

lyrics

I don't want to be the one at the end of your last parade
I don't want to be the heaven-sent place you go to end your days
Oh, I hope it's not love - I hope it's not love

I don't want to be the one in your dreams when you just can't sleep
I don't want to be the summer sun at the end of your working week
Oh, I hope it's not love - I hope it's not love

'Cause you know there are 1000 lights out this evening
I'm not going home, I'm not going home

I don't want to put the light to this fire that you're trying to start
I don't want to take the poison, dear, or be shot with the fatal dart
Oh, I hope it's not love - I hope it's not love

'Cause you know there are 1000 lights out this evening
I'm not going home, I'm not going home

Fools trust in persistence and live half-heartedly
Oh, I'm losing my resistance, but you're not fooling me

I don't want to be the one at the end of your last parade
I don't want to be the heaven-sent hell in which you spend your days
Oh, I hope it's not love - I hope it's not love

'Cause you know there are 1000 lights out this evening
I'm not going home, I'm not going home
