Last heard of three years ago with his 'Egyptology' album, World Party's Karl Wallinger has since left Chrysalis and had to sit back and watch as that young tyke Robbie Williams made a walloping great hit single of his song 'She's The One'.

And, as if to make sure that people realise who really wrote it actually, former Waterboy Wallinger has included his original waxing on this new offering taken from his forthcoming 'Dumbing Up' album.

The new single has all the classic Wallinger traits. An impossibly infectious singalong chorus, a Prince-ly falsetto, a thoughtful lyric, a twist of funk and a gently rapped middle bit by some duo called Zoonywells. That's a lie actually. Wallinger tunes don't normally have a rapped bit in them. And quite frankly this one could have well done without it!
