“Everything But the Girl” Archives

Even when stripped of electronic and studio embellishments, Everything But the Girl’s music loses none of its grace or soul.

The Best of Everything But the Girl’s 16 tracks highlight the duo’s sophisti-pop origins as well as their club evolution.

Walking Wounded still sounds as relevant, soulful, and heartbreaking as ever.

What’s most gratifying about Out of the Woods is the appreciation it exudes for the simple graces of life.

I can’t shake this feeling that Watt and Thorn were just trying too hard to make this album full of club singles, of trying to raise their DJ cred.

Lyrically, the album is a mature look at desire, longing, broken relationships, and the grey areas of romance.
