Saint Etienne have conÂtribÂuted a new song entitled 'Steeplechase' to an Olympics comÂpilÂaÂtion called 'It's The Taking Part That Counts'.
Be warned: it's an instruÂmental. It is very lovely though, as you can hear it here.
The jauntily-titled comÂpilÂaÂtion bills itself as a celÂebÂraÂtion of "the games AND to save you from two weeks of Coldplay".
Amazing.
Unfortunately the rest of the trackÂlistÂing looks like a bit of a snoozeÂfest, but seeing as the Saint Etienne song is Track One you can ignore the rest of it, unless you eg pop to the fridge for a fromage frais and come back to the strains of Hacia Dos Veranos. In which case, 'apols' in advance.
