- Released in early 1997, Silicone was the follow up to Mono's debut single, Life In Mono. Both tracks came from their debut LP Formica Blues. Sampling Roy Budd’s vastly influential theme from Michael Caine’s 1971 classic Get Carter, the track combines 70s soundtrack sensibilities with 90s electronica for the perfect after-hours mix.
Formica Blues’ 25th anniversary this August is celebrated with a deluxe edition of the album featuring rare remixes from Matthew Herbert, Mr Scruff, Les Rythmes Digitales (AKA Stuart Price) and the Aloof.

Lyrics
So many times, I've tried to make you understand
You never tried to see behind my smile
If I didn't know you like I do
I'd let you into the secret in me
Just because I'm good at fooling you
When no one's around, I walk in your shoes
I'm smiling while lying to you
I'm smiling while lying to you
If you only knew
I always try to hide behind a painted smile
So many things the public never sees
If I didn't know you like I do
I'd let you into the secret in me
Just because I'm good at fooling you
When no one's around, I walk in your shoes
I'm smiling while lying to you
I'm smiling while lying to you
When will you see through?
I'm smiling while lying to you
I'm smiling while lying to you
If you only knew
I'm smiling while lying to you
Won't you soon see through?
I'm smiling while lying to you
If you only knew
I'm smiling while lying to you
Would you concede my smile?
I'm smiling while lying to you
If you only knew

Mono was ahead of their time.
TRUE ! 💯
Not really. It sound like the 90s to me. But good song tho
I totally agree! I'm still trying to figure out why I gave up this album twice years ago. Now, I'm stuck in eternal facepalm mode for life! lol I really wish that they would come back out with a mix of their brand of nostalgia and a fresh new spin on trip hop. We need good music now, more than ever! 🤜🤛 💞
Trip Hop still rules. It effortlessly outclasses all that follows.
25 years after its release and still a masterpiece. Let's not forget the instrumental, timeless.
The lyrics. The sound. Her voice....The best company while walking by myself through this big city
The Nineties was the decade of cool, It started out with Acid Jazz and Trip Hop took it to next level mid decade.
Still Love & Respect since this album released.
Formica blues tiene muy buenas canciones 👌🏾 😩
Silicone se ha vuelto una obsesión para mi. Sobre todo el video 👀 la cantante es muy preciosa
