Everything but the Girl

"It was written with that idea in mind, totally... we put on sort of a laid back house groove instead. Then when we gave it to Todd (Terry), he took it in a really, really strong New York house direction, which had a real simplicity to it, but it was very infectious." words of lead singer Tracey Thorn on the song Missing and its relese as a remix which gained its popular status.

Everything but the Girl - Missing

Rich Girls - a song by the American outfit, The Virgins. Rich Girls reached #68 on Rolling Stones top 100 songs of '08.. Nice indie tune

The Vigins - Rich Girls

Next, a synthpop song, influenced by hip hop music. The lyrics focus on class, and inner-city pressure, and were inspired by T.S. Elliot's poem The Waste Land. It was generally well received by contemporary music critics and has been frequently cited as a highlight in the duo's career. Don't know why or how i got to liking this tune, i heard them perform it on the BRIT awards and it was a tune!.. Light hearted synthpop, chilled out..

Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls

A tune I made, its a chillout track with an orbital, leftfield kind of feel to it..

Tom Hinds - The Girl

One for our Baz..
