Olive - Beyond The Fray

**I’m totally obsessed with this song! Their entire album rocks. What happened to them?!

“I’ll mark the day / When we can meet beyond the fray / Don’t lose the will to see your home / You’ll find a way / So we can meet beyond the fray / I’ll fight to see that you get home…”

Olive was a breakbeat/trip hop group from the North of England. The founding membership consisted of producer, instrumentalist and songwriter Tim Kellett, producer and keyboard programmer Robin Taylor-Firth, and singer Ruth-Ann Boyle. The band released two albums Extra Virgin (1996) and Trickle (2000), the latter of which the track “Beyond The Fray” is a part of.

They are best known for their cover of the 10cc track “I’m Not In Love.”
