I have become a big Sisters Of Mercy fan lately and I have both "First
and Last and Always" and "Floodland".  However, the other day I heard
a song on the radio that was most definatly a Sisters of Mercy song
(or at least Hussey was singing it).  When the set of songs was over
the DJ said that the song was "Alice" by Sisters of Mercy.  Well, I
had never heard it before and I could not find a trace of it on either
of my CD's.  So the question is has anyone ever heard of the song and
if so, where the heck is it?  Did they come out with another album or
is it the B side of a single someplace?

	[ I don't know specifically where the song "Alice" comes from,
	  but before *First and Last and Always*, Sisters of Mercy had
	  lots of EP's.  I read in an interview that Aldritch didn't
	  believe in albums, so until *First and Last and Always*,
	  they never put out any.  -- |>oug ]
