Proud to have worked on the latest compilation put out by Lush (of bath bombs fame): covers from 1991-2001 chosen by CEO Mark Constantine. Me and the wonderful @jackieoates.bsky.social made this cover of Stardust's "Music Sounds Better With You", and I love it ♥️ /1 open.spotify.com/track/5EQ7Lu...
