Coldcut, "Autumn Leaves" (1993)
Of course autumn brings
A sense of melancholy.
Though, here, no leaves fall.

Trying to find as many ways to write about the potency of cheap music as there are to relate to it.

Love this one! Have never heard it. Is this the group that worked with Lisa Stansfield?

Oui. They did "People Hold On" with her, and also worked with Yazz on tracks like "The Only Way Is Up." But they've also been a fixture on the breaks and beats dance scene forever.
This cover of "Autumn Leaves" was a bit of a cult favorite in the dance community through the 90s -- in its original incarnation, but, even more, various chillout mixes of it (like the 10 minute "Irresistible Force mix," which has appeared on a lot of balearic, Cafe Del Mar type comps). It's not as if the 40s versions (by Nat King Cole or Duke Ellington) aren't great, but this arrangement -- especially when it changes when she sings the signature line, "but I miss you most of you my darling..." -- is just KILLER. Never fails to bring a tear to my eye.
