"Never Done Nothing Like That Before" is a song by Britpop band Supergrass. It was released as a single from their fourth album Life on Other Planets in July 2002. As it was a vinyl only release and only 2,500 copies were pressed, the single only reached #75 in the UK Singles Chart.

Eight of the twelve tracks were recorded since the completion of his previous LP, So Nice, while four of the tracks were leftovers from the recording sessions for previous Mercury albums. The finished product included a number from Broadway's The Roar of the Greasepaint—the Smell of the Crowd, a cover of the Beatles hit "Eleanor Rigby", two offerings from songwriters Burt Bacharach and Hal David, and three cuts that originated in film scores but had lyrics added later: the melody for "Strangers in the Night" was written for A Man Could Get Killed; "Somewhere My Love" began as "Lara's Theme" from Doctor Zhivago; and "Lovers in New York" started out as the instrumental title track from Breakfast at Tiffany's.

Psychotropia is the debut album by English psychedelic musician Nick Nicely, first released as an LP by Tenth Planet in 2003 and as a CD by Castle Music in 2004. Nicely had started fusing psychedelic and electronic music in the late 1970s, and in the early 1980s released two innovative singles, "DCT Dreams" and "Hilly Fields (1892)". While the singles were critically acclaimed, they were commercial failures, which partly contributed to Nicely's retirement from the public eye shortly after. While his works were being praised by several of his contemporaries, he continued to record then-unreleased, further material into the mid-1980s, and then again in the late 1990s.
