Belle and Sebastian, 'The BBC Sessions'
This collection features the beloved indie band's early British radio sessions.

According to Butch Walker, he and Pink are not only drinking buddies and motorbike riding partners, but the two pop troubadours are also inclined to write hit songs together. This is exactly what happened when the singer-producer and Grammy-winning artist got together on Walker's groove-worthy 'Here Comes the...' off his fourth album, 'Sycamore Meadows.'

"I played [Pink] that song on acoustic a long time ago when I first wrote it, and she said, 'If you ever record that song, I'm singing it with you,'" Walker tells Spinner. "Needless to say, the babe has the best pipes and authentic soul in her voice of anyone in pop music, or period. And the song, to me, leans on the old country soul and rhythm and blues of the '60s, so I feel like it was a match made in heaven ... or somewhere."

The Smiths, 'The Sound of the Smiths'
