I'm not sure I could love this more. Such a perfect pop song. I once described Theoretical Girl's music as "a perfect cross between The Smiths and The Divine Comedy, with a female singer". A tall order but one she lives up to.
Had to go to Myspace to find a stream of the proper album version of this song.
It's hard not to fall in love with those descending chords, the lovely backing vocals, and the "oh-oh..." nod to Beyoncé in the middle 8.
An acoustic version:
Do check out her Soundcloud pages, lots of different versions and lovely covers, which she does for her yearly Advent calendar (more here at her blog).
Nice Bandstand Busking performance:
Another of my favourites from her Divided album, The Biggest Mistake:
Good Timing is a beautiful song (as is Seeing You Again but I can't find any versions to share, nevermind, just buy the album, if you like POP, you'll LOVE it):
