Brilliant Corners week! part three

1989's Joy Ride was mainly a mid-paced and pensive affair. I don't find myself returning to it too often. Thankfully, the CD appends the snappily-titled 'Why Do You Have to Go Out With Him When You Could Go Out With Me' and its B-side, 'Shangri-La'. Both feature Amelia Fletcher, in accordance with then-current EEC Directive 86/123 Re: Compulsory Female Backing Vocals in Lovelorn Indiepop Records.

'Anticipation' is from the BBC Sessions album. Sounds a bit Josef K-ish to me.
