I was (and still am) a big fan of the whole sophisti-pop scene, and I would put 'The Lexicon of Love' near the top of that list. I like to imagine how big Everything But the Girl (I know you love 'em) could have been if they could have released their first album more quickly. It sat on the shelf for an awfully long time. The scene had already peaked with fickle fans by the time it came out. Take care.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04321051045499549249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815215641735446886.post-42482400061801478702013-02-21T23:51:40.690-05:002013-02-21T23:51:40.690-05:00Always felt this verison was possibly an outtake f...Always felt this verison was possibly an outtake from Mantrap. It has a very jazzy/filmic quality for sure. I also kind of like the mixing down of Martin's vocal to create more of a musical sheen - if that's actually possible. This version is also spot on with the emerging New Jazz scene in London that was in full effect with Sade, Style Council, Carmel and the like. Yes vote #1 for the album version, but the New Re-Mix has merit certainly.<br />As an aside, you must be aware that Mantrap femme fatale Lisa Vanderpump owns the reality airwaves in with Vanderpump Rules on Bravo. She has aged very very well!Echorichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853063796135973187noreply@blogger.com
