If you could be...

A member of a band, which band would you be a member of?

For me it would have to be Japan or the scissor sisters.

I would love to have been one of the dudes in ABBA. They sat in the background, played their instruments and wrote great songs. They toured the world with their girlfriends (later, wives) who were up front, looking gorgeous, singing some of the finest songs in the history of pop music, and singing them *very* well.

It would later turn out that their lives were far more turbulent than they appeared, but at the time they looked like they were having a blast. What could be better than that?

I actually would like to be Ann Wilson in Heart---I just love her voice, especially in their early years of their career.

I think it would either be Einsturzende Neubauten, The Cure, or Depeche Mode. I can't make up my mind.

It would have to be The Cure or I would love to be one of the women in ABBA. I also would like to have been one of the girls in the Human League -- I always thought it was so amazing how they were just out dancing one night and Phil Oakey "discovered" them, and the rest is history. (I do a mean karaoke "Don't You Want Me", BTW. :-) )

Very. :-)

Can you imagine, though, being 16 and just out for a night dancing with your best mate, and by night's end you have been invited to join a famous pop band? How absolutely amazing...
