Everything But The Girl - Shoot Me Down

Just a few days ago I posted a song off Everything But The Girl's brilliant 1985 album Love Not Money called "Are You Trying To Be Funny". Well now, here's another one, just as good if not better. "Shoot Me Down" is a jazz/soul/pop ballad with a great horn arrangement and a Timmy Thomas style groove, rich in sound and texture and utterly beautiful, led by Tracey Thorn's haunting vocal style and with the added pleasure of Ben Watt's desperate wailing in the background. What a song!
