The U.S. single of Saint Etienne’s ONLY LOVE CAN BREAK YOUR HEART, featuring mixes by the (then) up-and-coming Masters at Work, veers towards hip-hop for the “Single Remix” and the “Kenlou B-Boy Mix.” But given Saint Etienne’s interest in those rhythms already, they don’t seem like much of a departure. The “Masters at Work Dub,” however, recasts the song into house mode, a pleasantly mellow and danceable affair. An auspicious introduction for Saint Etienne to American ears.

The Andy Weatherall mix features the sample (famously used in Paul Oakenfold's Goa Mix);

"The DJ eases a spliff, from his lyrical lips, and smilingly orders....CEASE!"

Which comes in halfway through the record, hence the 'Mix of Two Halves' title. It's a slightly mellower mix of the original, and very in line with his Sabres of Paradise material.

An excellent, excellent version of the 60's original, with that fantastic piano riff - this track has 'balearic' written all over it - faultless.
