We thought we'd stick to the facts, rather than copy Victoria Newton's strange tone:
I hear the happy couple, who married in Hawaii two years ago and have been desperate for a little soldier, are thrilled.
Desperate for a little soldier? What, because they feel the need to help out with the Iraq surge?
This could, though, mean the end for the band, to judge by an interview Flowers gave to Craig McLean for the Observer last year:
He's desperate to have a baby, 'a little Flower child', but Mormonism places an exalted premium on the solidity of family life; one of his cousins gave up a place on the PGA golf circuit because it would mean being away from home too much. Flowers sees how difficult it is for (non-Mormon) Dave Keuning, whose son is one year old; he couldn't countenance being on the road and not being around his own kid.
Hmmm.
The soldier reference is the most tenuous link ever to the line "I've got soul but i'm not a soldier" from their song "all these things that i've done"
