Beach is available full length form on The Sound Of Belgium (TSOB Volume 3) - It was a cafe del mar tune back in the day in Ibiza 1987 Still Play it out today but then Harvey & I are seemingly cut from the same balearic cloth. Lovely tune in the sunshine

To read someone defining this "tropical music" makes me laugh.
If this is a summer sound for you, probably you've spent your younghood by a grey baltic beach full of plastic and garbage.
Good, but not great.

Great, forgot how good the song actually is as I was updating my collection came across the original 12". Surprised to see it go as high as it does though; back in the day not immediately my favorite track of the period but aged well compared to others.

Trivia: Around 15 copies of this record disappeared from the marketplace within a minute while DJ Harvey was playing it live on Boiler Room. Soon after that the price naturally went up. "Beach" is a great tropical track - You can still find it on a "A Split Second" release with vocals included. Check "Drinking Sand":
