Everything But The Girl

[Thomcat]

YUM. Just heard a teeny tiny snippet and had forgotten just how much I loved/love them.

I also have a EBTG tune to thank for getting me and DP together, in a way.

[hana]

lurve EBTG - dh - then bf got me into them. was digging around for Abba for dd1 yesterday and found all sorts of oldies but goodies (everything on ipod now so just shuffle thorugh things.....)

[ButterflyMcQueen]

ahhhh Idlewild

[FrannyandZucchini]

lovely lovely lovely

I read Ben's book recently about being ill in hospital for ages and it was also very good

[beansprout]

Eden. Genius.

[Thomcat]

Her voice is just fab. I can't think of one I don't like.
Must dig out my albums and have a listen tomorrow.

So would you recommend the book then yeah?

[Kewcumber]

showing my age I liked Tracy thrne when she was just that and went to UNiversity with someone who was at school with her when she was in the Marine Girls (apparently they were shit and couldnt play any instruments but even then Tracy Thorne stood out)

[PeedOffandPg]

Oh that song "Missing"... I had a huge crush on someone and that song was the sort of anthem for it. Happy memories

[Kewcumber]

I saw them live a few times. He was very very thin at one point but I cant remember, what was worng with him?

[hoxtonchick]

walking wounded is one of my fave albums. and i love protection too.

[FrannyandZucchini]

he had a kind of mystery illness

Thomcat it was better than I expected it to be

[Remotew]

I can remember two versions of everything but the girl. I loved their first single but forget what it was called. (Really cool 80's tune) Then they changed line up but were still good.

[Thomcat]

Missing is the song that got me and Dp together. We were good friends, he wanted more and I was desperate to stay single. We went sep ways for a bit. Then he was Djing on a radio show, said 'nothing like washing dirty laundry in public' played that and I rang the show. rest is history.

[Thomcat]

oh me too Hoxtonchick, on both counts

[expatinscotland]

LOVE them.

'I hope you never change
I'll call you Jimmy
They'll call you James.'

Always brings tears to my eyes now I have wee children.

Have ALL their albums.

[SNoraWotzThat]

I used to get very drunk on vodka and dance in my room to after a bad relationship ended!

I don't want to talk about it
how you broke my heart...if I stay here just a little bit longer.........my heaaaaarrttttttttt ohhhhhhh my heeeeaaaaarrrrtttttttttttttt

My heart mended but at the time I never thought it would - lol

[expatinscotland]

Oh, no, the ultimate 'We broke up, I'm hitting the vodka' song would be Yazz, 'Midnight'.

Or 'Only You'.

[FrannyandZucchini]

I like walking wounded very much indeed as well as early stuff

I love the lyrics of Oxford St, in particular

[southeastastra]

wan music sort of nice

[SNoraWotzThat]

Yazz - you taking the piss?

[BecauseImWorthIt]

I'm so pleased. I thought this was going to be a thread saying how rubbish people thought they were!

I love them. They're fab.
