Talk about a vibe.
It contains some wonderful saxophone, and has a wonderful feel throughout and of course that infectious scouse chatter.
A really clever piece of music - chillout perfection!!!
I think she'd had a bad day - what do you reckon??
There's a great bit of information taken from Discogs about this track.
"One day a woman arrives unnanounced at the One Little Indian offices in London. She tells label boss Derek Birket that she wants a deal for her new single. Let's hear it then, he replies.
Instead of playing him a demo, she reads out, in a dour northern accent, her 'imperfect list'. Birket is blown away by the words, and decides to take a punt, offering her a tiny recording budget
A few weeks later, the anonymous lady returns with the masters. To everyone's amazement, not only is the track kinda amazing, but it is recorded by Robin Gutherie of Cocteau Twins and Pete Wylie, and has Andrew Weatherall remixes already arranged...
It's a jaw-dropping song, this, especially in its original beatless version - a list of evildoers and nastiness spat out in a vitriolic Scouse accent over a dark ambient drone."
