All You Good Good People

This is the re-issue of Embrace's debut single. It is very good, and much better than Oasis' last single. Embrace and Oasis are always compared, however this can now only be an insult to Embrace, who are clearly a much more talented group. CD2 features three different mixes of the title track and a remix of their last hit One Big Family. I chose to purchase the original EP instead, as I seldom like indie-rock remixes.
Come Back To What You Know

Embrace's fourth single (If you exclude the original limited edition fierce panda release of All You Good Good People, Embrace's first top ten hit from last year. Embrace are well known for the quality of their EPs, and this release is no different. However, it will be the last four-track EP to chart in this country, as CIN have stupidly changed the rules for singles, allowing a maximum of only three different tracks per single. The CD features Come Back To What You Know, adn 3 non-album tracks - Love Is Back, If You Feel Like A Sinner and Perfect Way. There is also a second CD featuring Live versions of Dry Kids and Butter Wouldn't Melt, plus Orchestral version of CBTWYK and the radio edit . This group is far superior to Oasis, and a lot better than the Verve, and deserve huge chart success in the near future.

Embrace are strange. Yeah, so I've bought pretty much everything they've released - their songs are good, but they seem familiar - all the Embrace singles not only sound like each other, but also many Verve or Oasis songs. I know this has been picked up by many other people, but until now it has never really effected the enjoyment of their records. I'll probably still buy Embrace singles, because it's still decent quality music, but
