"That Boy That Girl" is the first single by British band Hadouken!. The first track later re-appeared as the second track on their 2008 debut studio album Music for an Accelerated Culture.

Background

The band are described on the HMV website as:

A collision of grimey beats, razor-sharp lyrical dissection of 2007 nightlife and a whole dollop of flouro-pop sensibility, Hadouken! exploded into 2007 with the release of their Radio One championed 12" 'That Boy That Girl'. Confusing some, tickling most, their kaleidoscopic approach modern pop music is exhilarating. The song was released as a 1000 record limited pressing, with 500 of these being coloured in by the band themselves, which is now somewhat of a collectors item.[1]
