Yello will always be a particular favourite though. 2. b) The first Yello album I bought was "Claro Que Si", back in 1981 a few months after it was released in the UK. I was into electronic groups particularly Kraftwerk and just took a risk on something new - it was a fortuitous choice. 3. a) Yes, absolutely. I'm a big fan of Stina Nordenstam as well an was excited by the prospect of a collaboration when I read about the album on the web page. It more than makes up for "Zebra" - which I found a little disappointing. 4. a) My partner likes them - though at first she took a little convincing. I have a number of good friends who are really into them, and we have a number of shared memories associated with their music. 5 a) Dieter and Boris are extremely articulate and express themselves with a great deal of wit and grace. 6 a) I've got a couple of the video collections that have been released. I watch them once in a while, the only other videos I've ever been particularly impressed by are by David Byrne/Talking Heads. Though Pulp put out a collection a couple of years ago which was very entertaining. 7 e) No-body's perfect - but Yello come as close as anyone does.

They will take orders over the phone, their number is 212-475-9633. They have the special set in stock and the price is $79.00 plus $5.00 for shipping UPS. The cost of just the watch is $69.00.

Yep. I bought this set from Watchworld and it arrived quite quickly. The CD is mediocre, but it's good listening for the hell of it (and if you're an avid Yello fan). The watch is really nice! It's not cheap crap. It's got a very good weight to it, solid feel, and looks sharp. People love it.

Sorry, but it's clear that there was an Yello-HowHow-Remix-Contest about two years ago ? There exists this "Remix-Maxi-CD" with all samples of HOW HOW. So theres is no Problem to put this samples into a song ;-}} I made an Remix too - no techno elements ! I think yello mustn't make techno !-) But I think the contest was an Techno-Yello-HowHow-Remix-Contest because the 4 songs on the winner CD was all Dance-Versions ;-[[ Anybody heard this CD ? I think 3 of this 4 songs are really bad ! And one of this three have absolutely NO Elements of HowHow !! Really strange ! My song is naturally better ;-)) Perhaps i should try to put my Remix on my HP ?
