"Ladyfingers" was the lead single from Electric Honey, Luscious Jackson's third album, in 1999, and it's Jill Cunniff's baby: the band's lead singer wrote it alone and co-produced it with Tony Mangurian, who also engineered, before Andy Wallace mixed it. It's a slinky, sun-warmed groove that doesn't have to shout to get your attention.
It climbed to No. 28 on Billboard's Alternative chart. Tamra Davis directed the video, with Cibo Matto dropping in for cameos.
