Fruit Machine (song)


"Fruit Machine" is the second official single released by Salford band The Ting Tings in 2007. The single was limited to a 500-copy run.
The vinyl was only available for fans of The Ting Tings to buy at their live shows. Every single released had different cover art. This is because at every concert, a hundred blank seven-inch sleeves were pinned to a wall, making a canvas on which fans could create an overall piece of artwork that, once dismantled, were used as the sleeves for the singles. The making of the sleeves was also filmed and then shown in real time at each consecutive venue.
The song has a short guitar solo by vocalist and guitarist Katie White. Tremolo picking and distortion are used.

Re-release

The song was to receive its full UK release on 9 February 2009, it however was cancelled a week before its released date, being removed from every retailers database. Two weeks later though, their next single would be released, "We Walk". "Fruit Machine" had already charted on the Australian club chart at 37.
