A charity single recorded in 2007.
Guests vocals include David Tan (Electrico), Saiful Idris (Great Spy Experiment), Shirlyn Tan, Joanna Dong, Olivia Ong and Patrick Chng (The Oddfellows) on bass.
Just like the title says – this all-girl hipster-rock-tango band, THE SUZAN, might be the next best thing since Shonen Knife was conceived. Even though they have just released their international debut album, titled Golden Week tor the Poco Poco Beat (Amazon Japan; Amazon US), these ladies have been around for quite sometime now with albums like Suzan Galaxy in 2007. The following video is a promotional material for the track “You Know Nothing” from Suzan Galaxy.
If you feel that your attention has been captured by these sassy Japanese performers, you would be delighted to know that you can grab your hands on a cover single, “Take It Or Leave It”, that they pulled off from The Strokes.
You guys have to check out these acoustic re-arranged covers of local songs originally sang by bands like The Great Spy Experiment, Postbox, Electrico and A Vacant Affair.

Amazing amazing work. I especially love the saxophone intelude in Amber and the extremely chill version of “We are not the same” by A Vacant Affair.
I’m not going to bore you guys with my words, because that would mean I’ll be taking up the time that should be used listening to the songs.
Beautiful.
If anybody know these guys, please tell them that if they are interested in releasing an EP of these tracks and more, I’m more than willing to put my money in it. I love it.
You’re welcome. Rickroll’d.
