Saint Etienne are an English indie dance act, fronted by Sarah Cracknell (born April 12, 1967, Chelmsford, Essex)."Cola Boy" with different singers; their explanation is that the tracks were "too cheesy for Saint Etienne.We'd have been finished overnight".Some of these earlier recordings included skits by satirist Chris Morris.It was preceded by a single for the track "Side Streets".CD for a planned album of children's songs entitled Up the Wooden Hills.Spanish film Volver and in the Grey's Anatomy episode titled "Tell Me Sweet Little Lies," the fourteenth episode of season 2 in 2006.London Conversations: The Best of Saint Etienne, was released in October 2008."Who Do You Think You Are" is a cover of a song by Jigsaw.The song was also covered by Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods and by Candlewick Green, a winning act on the UK talent show Opportunity Knocks.Saint Etienne recorded it as a duet with Debsey Wykes, former singer of Dolly Mixture.In 1993, the band collaborated with Kylie Minogue for two songs: a cover of "Nothing Can Stop Us" (intended at the time to be her first single release for her new label) and "When Are You Coming Home" (unreleased).Also in 1993, the Xmas 93 EP featured Tim Burgess from The Charlatans on the lead track "I Was Born on Christmas Day."For the band's first greatest hits compilation, Too Young to Die (1995), Eurodance producer Steve Rodway reworked the track "Accident" from the Reserection EP, producing the renamed single "He's on the Phone."Brian Higgins produced the band's following single, "Burnt Out Car," released in 1996.Films
The 1998 album The Misadventures of Saint Etienne is the soundtrack to the independent film The Misadventures of Margaret, starring Parker Posey.After the soundtrack was completed, the film's producers opted to replace it with a more 'conventional' soundtrack, although a number of tracks can still be heard in the background of the film's final version and Saint Etienne received top "Original Music" credit on the film.The band has also stepped out from behind their instruments and microphone stands to produce films, including two documenting the landscape of the city of London: Finisterre (2002) inspired by the 1967 short film The London Nobody Knows, and What Have You Done Today, Mervyn Day?Royal Festival Hall in London, telling the story of the Hall's first 50 years.RFH's opening season with the band performing the film's soundtrack live.What Have You Done Today Mervyn Day?What Have You Done Today Mervyn Day?Saint Etienne are to play their big show of 2003 at The London Palladium on Sunday 14th of December.It is going to be a greatest hits set (the first) and Christmas extravaganza featuring some very special guests who have appeared on Saint Etienne tracks down the years.Welcome to the latest edition of Pitchfork's Guest List.This week it's Bob Stanley of Saint Etienne, who has been researching pop music's history, filming a documentary on the newly refurbished Royal Festival Hall, and staying up past his bedtime to watch the U.MGMT, "Electric Feel": It's sort of obvious, but it's a great single.The only problem, and it's been my problem with it for a few years now, is that's it's not actually, really, genuinely new.Maybe it's just being a certain age, but you always assumed that music was going to take bounds forward and sound "futuristic" in the future.In 1974, if I was trying to measure what music sounds like in the year 2000, it wouldn't have been "Seasons in the Sun".I've sort of become obsessed with the era immediately before rock'n'roll.Otherwise you end up going back to the 1800s or something.So I've become obsessed with this period when vinyl had just been invented, and then you got the first charts as well, which is basically...Oh, Jimmy Campbell, the guy who did the 23rd Turnoff...Kind of psychedelic pop I suppose.It sort of sounds like Revolver, two years later and slightly heavier.Favorite Song of All Time"Wichita Lineman" by Glen Campbell.Which is probably as close as you get to when you're a kid, and you first hear "Heart of Glass" or "I Want to Hold Your Hand", and you just hear this amazing noise, you don't even know that it's musical instruments doing it."Oh right, so this actually is the main thread of the film!"But it's the bulk of the story!Even when you look at recommended films, it's the same ones week after week."Freaks and Geeks", which I don't really think got shown here at the time.You know, his life was completely off the rails.What Was Lost, by Catherine O'Flynn.It's very melancholy, but it's very beautifully written.Won a few awards over here.I've literally just started it, but it seems pretty good.Alan's Records in East Finchley, North London, which just gets stuff in and sells it cheap.It's just like rummaging through a superior junk shop, really.Supremes album called Meet the Supremes...Makes me feel old, 'cause it's proper dinner party music.And a single by a bloke, Phil Cordell, called "London Dairy", which is very...Sounds sort of like Badfinger produced by Joe Meek.It still works, but the battery lasts for about 10 minutes.That's what I should buy myself.Pitchfork: It's a beautiful town.Swam with manatees on holiday, that was great.That seems pretty hard to beat.I'm going to go on holiday to a small island near Ibiza in the beginning of October.I'd say I'm a bit sick of the sight of it now, but beforehand it was my favorite, anyway.But I always thought the acoustics were great in there, really bass heavy.We played there with Broadcast in 2002, which was great.It's just breathtaking, if you're onstage or if you're watching, it's beautiful.Favorite TV Show at the MomentI just started watching "The Wire", and I'm only, like, seven episodes into the first season, so I've got a long way to go.I'm not normally that big on detective shows, but it's just so well done.Started at 2:30 in the morning over here."This is only gonna go one way, don't know why I'm bothering."And then after that it's Jonathan Ross' program, who is just...And then Radio 5 over here for football on Saturday afternoon.Cause that's what I do with my Saturdays, listen to the radio.I've got a friend who has the "Persuaders Theme", by John Barry.Reviews
