It's a cold, grey and quite miserable afternoon in North Chelsea when I sit down at the wrought-iron table outside the Edgar Allen Poe House de Caf und Brot. The waiter brings me cold Turkish coffee in a half-skull. A long black limousine ponderously settles in across the way, and an Asian chauffeur of indeterminate age and gender hops out, swinging wide the back door, from which he emerges. Late, by half an hour, of course. It's been said of Peter Murphy many things, but subtle can't be counted among them. He drapes not one, but two black coats across the back of his chair before settling his enormous girth into view. Taking a clove cigarette from an embossed obsidian case, he begins to speak in lush, wine-flavored tones. "I's about puttin it in 'er bum, innit" he intones gracefully. "If you'd grew up running wif the Chelsea Street Goth Boys, you'd know the sayin'. She's up-arsey, we'd say. Meanin' she favors it up the register, you understand. That's why I sing, "It's in the can". Changed the name, but. Didn't want to be too cheeky, if you get my biscuit."
