Tracey Thorne

Her wot was in Everything But The Girl.
More you say? Oh go on then: "If there is a timeless cross-generational voice in modern English pop, folk and electronica, it is that of Tracey Thorn. From her cult 1982 raw mini-album classic A Distant Shore, through best-selling eighties alt-pop with Everything But The Girl, to her re-emergence in the nineties with EBTG's world-trouncing crossover electronica... she has articulated so many soundtracks to our modern lives with her simple, direct, tender-tough deliveries and lyrics."
Sorry, I got bored in the middle there.
