‘Everything But The Girl’ Duo Tie The Knot

a-4115-001Congratulations to Everything But The Girl’s Tracey Thorn and Ben Watt, who tied the knot sometime this year after a long courtship. Said Thorn on her MySpace blog: “A twenty seven year engagement may seem cautious to some of you, but I think in these uncertain times, it is as well to be sure of someone before you make any rash commitments.” (She is a very wise woman.) And to make this bit of news go from “awesome” to “yay-inducing,” it was announced in a post about the songs on her followup to 2007’s masterful Out Of The Woods. (Lots of songs about divorce on the new one, apparently/ironically.) To celebrate all this news, why not watch the heartstring-pulling video for Woods“Raise The Roof”?

  1. Wow, what a happy ending to a long, long story. I’ve been following them so long, hearing this news is like finding out about two old friends.

    I hope they slow-danced to “Mirrorball” after tying the knot.

  2. So many memories attached to their catalog. Very glad that they are still around. Tracey’s last CD (I’m dating my self) was the only one I purchased in the last 2 years.
