Hmm?

Do you think that maybe VOXTROT has been listening to THE BEAUTIFUL SOUTH? Something sounded a little too familiar about that new song.... and then it hit me. The THE BEAUTIFUL SOUTH song Have You Ever Been Away?, from their 1990 album, Welcome To The Beautiful South. Listen to the beginning of both yesterday's and today's MP3s... and you be the judge.

I also like that whole British circa '90 explosion post-Smiths.

Hmmm ... I s'pose the main difference is B.S. never did anything for me, and Voxtrot does. Now on the other hand the Housemartins trump 'em both. Where is THAT reunion tour btw?

The Beautiful South are massively successful outside of the US. 1 in 7 UK homes owns at least one Beautiful South album.
