Light and breezy electronic pop track with hints of tropical accents. This song is a collaboration between Tubetops (which includes Kevin Bendis of Camouflage Lodge) and Crystal Fighters’ Ellie Fletcher, A.K.A. Kyiki.

Spandau Ballet – To Cut A Long Story Short
Not only is “To Cut A Long Story Short” the first single ever from Spandau Ballet, it was also Vince Clarke‘s inspiration to write Depeche Mode‘s “Just Can’t Get Enough“,[1] to which the keyboard style bears a certain similarity.

Christopher Norman & The Reverb Junkie – You Don’t Know (Clean Radio Edit)
Lush and bouncy synths are set in motion and then joined by the intimate vocals of The Reverb Junkie. Addicting chorus on this track and in particular the line of “so i’m not trying ” — my personal fav. This is taken from their EP, All The Pretty People which can be purchased via their bandcamp page here.
Lyrics
All the pretty girls go out on Saturday night.
Frying out the hair, what to wear –
making sure they look right.
They look just right.All the pretty boys line up to take them out for a spin,
try not to break them.
All the pretty girls go out on Satuday nightI’m not like that
I’m not like that.I stand out in the crowd.
I don’t blend in – so i’m not trying
hard to hide, change your mind,
it’s true.
making sure they look right.
They look just right.All the pretty boys line up to take them out for a spin,
try not to break them.
All the pretty girls go out on Satuday nightI’m not like that
I’m not like that.I stand out in the crowd.
I don’t blend in – so i’m not trying
hard to hide, change your mind,
it’s true.
So don’t tell me that you don’t notice,
you don’t notice –
yeah, you don’t know sh**.
Now the pretty boys and the girls get to go for a ride.
Cruisin’ from the bar after dark and everything’s fine.
Yeah it’s just fine.
Go into the hall, reapply the makeup,
put some more cologne on, it’s time to shake things up –
the pretty boys and the girls get to go for a ride
I’m not like that
I’m not like that.
I stand out in the crowd.
I don’t blend in – so i’m not trying
hard to hide, change your mind,
it’s true.
So don’t tell me that you don’t notice,
you don’t notice –
yeah, you don’t know sh**.
