essex girls

Brighton beat Colchester rather comfortably, 2-0 tonight to extend our lead at the top. To celebrate the win over our Essex opponents I've decided to pick 2 songs by 2 very classy Essex girls, Polly Scattergood and Alison Moyet. I mean that sincerely and without any sense of irony. I'm big fans of both of these singers. 

They share a link apart from the county of birth. Everyone knows that Alison used to be in Yazoo, seminal English 80s electronic pop duo with Vince Clarke and he has also remixed Polly Scattergood's 'Other Too Endless' single. Yet another coincidence, Polly is from Colchester...and her video to 'Please Don't Touch' was filmed in Brighton. It's symmetry, I tell you.
