Chicane's 'Saltwater': literally amazing. Natasha Bedingfield's 'I Bruise Easily': amazing in a different and quite bad but still amazing way.
Put them together:

Absolute rubbish. When we first heard this on the radio we thought this was just a stupid bootleg thing — it's even got a stupid bootleg title ('Bruised Water', is it 2001 again or something?) — but no. It is actually being released. People are listening to this and thinking "yes these two songs definitely work very well together".
We know this might be 'big in the clubs' or whatever but surely this is actual, proper shit? "Oh I know we'll make a video based on that Splash film from the 80s." Brilliant. Here's a tip to the label: if you're going to choose a Tom Hanks film to 'homage' in the video, Saving Private Ryan might provide a better visual accompaniment to the sound of carnage and despair as dance music is blown limb from limb.
Probably quite good on drugs we suppose.
