Everything But The Girl

2019 press.
Released in 1994 and often remembered for the original version of Missing, which would later be remixed into a global hit. The album itself is a beautifully understated mix of acoustic folk pop and subtle electronic touches, with Tracey Thorn’s voice at its most direct and affecting. Songs like Rollercoaster and We Walk the Same Line show the duo’s gift for quiet intensity, making this a late career high point before their full electronic shift.
