I don't think selection "(c)" has much validity.  I told this
hypothesis to Peter Morris of Homeground before the official word
about lip-synching came out.  Peter Morris seems to have latched on to
my original hypothesis, but I can see no evidence for it in
retrospect.  The only reason I ever had this hypothesis was because I
couldn't think of any other possible reason.  The real lip-synching
reason is just too ludicrous for my completely rational mind to have
come up with.

Kate Bush and erotic?
This is the greatest joke of all times!
Think that the spare tire of my car is a thousand times more erotic
than she ever was/is/will be.

I can only guess that you posted this while your mind was addled by
too much time spent on passionate embraces in the trunk of your car.

Nor those of most persons without a severe rubber fetish.
