Sarah Cracknell

Sarah Jane Cracknell[3] (born 12 April 1965) is an English singer-songwriter[4] and lead singer of the electronic music band Saint Etienne.

[5] Cracknell was one-half of the duo Lovecut DB who released three singles between 1991 and 1992 including "Heart Spin," "Fingertips" b/w "Live To Breathe," and "Journey To The Centre Of Love."

Months later, Instinct released the Kelly's Locker EP, which contained the five tracks originally removed from the UK version of Lipslide, along with two previously unreleased songs and a new remix.

[7] Cracknell was Spiller's first choice for the vocals of his number-one hit "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" in 2000,[citation needed] but she never got to record the song, which instead featured Sophie Ellis-Bextor.

She recorded a duet of Dusty Springfield's 1968 song "I Close My Eyes and Count to Ten" with Marc Almond for his album Stardom Road, released in June 2007.

The song consists of extensive samples from a composition by Elena Kats-Chernin entitled Eliza's Aria, well known to UK TV viewers as the music from the animated 'For the Journey' commercials for Lloyds TSB bank.
