Me Me Me

Me Me Me were a one-off Britpop supergroup formed in London in 1996, Stephen Duffy, Alex James of Blur, and Justin Welch of Elastica coming together to record a single that captured the playful, melodic energy of the mid-1990s British indie scene at its most enjoyable. The project was deliberately lightweight — a summer pop record rather than a serious artistic statement.

'Hanging Around' (1996) was one of the most purely enjoyable British pop singles of the mid-1990s — a melodically irresistible, hook-driven song that reached the UK top twenty and earned immediate critical affection. It captured the Britpop moment perfectly: confident, melodic, and entirely unpretentious.

Me Me Me released only the one single before the members returned to their respective bands. They are remembered as a charming footnote to the Britpop era — a one-off collaboration that produced one genuinely great pop song and nothing else, which is exactly what it set out to do.
