Synopsis

Slow Club perform "Me And You" in an intimate, stripped-back setting that matches the song's handmade indie-folk character. Charles Watson handles guitar and vocals, while Rebecca Taylor contributes vocals and unconventional percussion, including the chair that became part of the duo's early identity. The camera stays close to the pair, emphasizing their contrasting presence and shared rhythm rather than building a conventional storyline. The result is a low-key, homespun portrait of a young band finding charm in simplicity, awkwardness, and two-part harmony.

Factoids & Trivia

  • "Me And You" was one of Slow Club's earliest releases, issued as a 7-inch single by Moshi Moshi Records in 2007.
  • The song was written and performed when Charles Watson and Rebecca Taylor were still at an early stage of their partnership. In a later interview, the duo described it as one of the first songs they wrote or played together.
  • Rebecca Taylor's percussion setup was notably unconventional. She used a wooden chair, along with glass bottles and other everyday objects, rather than a conventional drum kit. The chair became closely associated with the song and with Slow Club's early live shows.
  • By 2009, Taylor said she had stopped using the chair because audiences had become more interested in the unusual instrument than in the music itself.
  • The track was absent from the original standard edition of the duo's debut album, Yeah So, despite being one of the songs that first attracted attention to Slow Club.
  • The video was uploaded by Moshi Moshi Music on September 25, 2007, helping preserve the song's early DIY presentation for a much wider online audience.
  • "Me And You" later became part of the band's enduring early catalog and was remembered locally as one of the Sheffield duo's defining songs from the Myspace era.
