You Caught Me Out (song)
"You Caught Me Out" is a song written by Kirsty MacColl, Pete Briquette and Simon Crowe. It was originally recorded by MacColl in 1979 but the intended single release was shelved. Versions have also been recorded by Australian singer Christie Allen and British-American singer/actress Tracey Ullman. Background After signing to Stiff, Maccoll released her debut single " They Don't Know" in June 1979. The song was a radio hit, but a strike at the label's distributors resulted in the single's failure to enter the UK Singles Chart. Despite the setback, MacColl soon recorded a follow-up, "You Caught Me Out", for which she collaborated with members of the Irish rock band The Boomtown Rats. MacColl co-wrote the song with the band's bassist Pete Briquette and drummer Simon Crowe, and they recorded the track with her, alongside the band's keyboardist Johnnie Fingers. Guitar was provided by Brinsley Schwarz of Brinsley Schwarz. The release date for "You Caught Me Out" was changed multiple ...

Songs Written By Pete Briquette
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers f ...

You Caught Me Out
''You Caught Me Out'' is the second and final studio album by Tracey Ullman. It was released on Stiff Records in November 1984 throughout Europe. Unlike her 1983 debut album, this album was never released commercially in the United States. Background The album contained covers of two Kirsty MacColl songs (who had written and originally recorded Ullman's 1983 smash " They Don't Know"), including the title track and "Terry". MacColl had originally written "Terry" specifically for Ullman to record, but first recorded it herself in 1983 at the behest of the record company (both singers were signed to Stiff Records at the time). Ullman's version the following year used the same backing track as MacColl's original, but simply swaps MacColl's vocals for Ullman's. MacColl also provided backing vocals on the album. Four singles were taken from the album in the UK. " My Guy's Mad At Me" (a cover of Madness's 1980 hit "My Girl's Mad At Me") peaked at no.23 in March 1984, while " Sungla ...
