''Things to Make and Do'' is the third album from the electronic/dance duo Moloko, UK issued by Echo Records, in 2000. It was a sonic departure for Moloko, featuring tracks less reliant on electronics and more on live musicians. In addition to the change in musical styles, the album featured new vocal technique, from lead singer Róisín Murphy—at time of release, Murphy summed up her previous vocal style, saying: "I was nineteen when I made ''Tight Sweater'', and I knew I was pretending, but if I tried not to, I'd still be pretending. Now, I know myself better." After the release of ''Things to Make and Do'', offers came in for Murphy to guest on others' records, most notably The Psychedelic Waltons, Boris D. and Handsome Boy Modelling School. The album held Echo's record as its fastest-selling UK platinum record, until beaten by Feeder's ''The Singles'' compilation six years later. The album has sold 355,196 copies as of May 2015. ==Singles and bonus tracks== "The Time Is Now", the album's first single, became Moloko's biggest hit, peaking at number two on the UK Singles Chart and prompted a number three UK album début for ''Things to Make and Do''. Prior to the album's release, an unsolicited Boris Dlugosch "Sing It Back" remix became a club, then mainstream hit (originally a drum and bass-ish track on ''I Am Not a Doctor'', their previous album). After the remix stormed Ibiza and Miami, then achieved scores of dance mix compilation inclusions, it was added to ''Things to Make and Do'' as a bonus track. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Things to Make and Do」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
