Ten years ago, the Britpop icons Pulp wrote a track called "After You," a demo that was never officially finished or recorded – until this past November, that is, when the band laid down the track. They eventually finished it with some help from LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy during their recent stint on the S.S. Coachella.
