"There She Goes" is a song by English rock band the La's, written by the band's frontman, Lee Mavers. First released in 1988, the song reached number 13 on the UK Singles Chart when it was re-issued in 1990.
Predating Britpop by four years,[3] the band's self-titled album was named one of the 40 greatest one-album wonders by Rolling Stone, with the magazine stating, "Whether about heroin or just unrequited love, the La's single 'There She Goes' off their self-titled debut has endured as a founding piece of Britpop's foundation."[4] It was listed at number 22 on NME's "500 Greatest Songs of All Time".[5] In 2007, NME had placed the song at number 45 in its list of the 50 Greatest Indie Anthems Ever.[6]
