Biography
Early years
Eighth Wonder's roots are with a band called Spice. In 1983, Jamie Kensit auditioned his sister Patsy Kensit, then aged 14, for the vacant job of lead singer in his new band. The line-up consisted of her on vocals, Jamie Kensit and Geoff Beauchamp on guitar, Lawrence Lewis on bass, Jake Walters on drums and Nigel Davis on percussion. Spice made their live debut in autumn 1983, and then spent the next year playing further gigs, hoping to gain some attention from record labels.
In late 1984, Nigel Davis left to start the band 'Slipstream' and keyboard player Alex Godson joined the band. They renamed themselves Eighth Wonder and Patsy Kensit began to write songs for the band. Their first gig as Eighth Wonder was in November 1984 in Wimbledon, London and further gigs followed. It was at one of these that Steve Wooley, co-owner of Palace Films, and director Julien Temple offered Patsy Kensit the role of 'Crepe Suzette' in their 1986 movie musical Absolute Beginners. Eighth Wonder contributed a song to the soundtrack.
Eighth Wonder is the eighth studio album by Japanese music group AAA, released on September 18, 2013. The album contains five singles that were previously released —"Niji", "Miss you/Hohoemi No Saku Basho", "Party It Up", "Love Is In The Air" and "Koi Oto to Amazora"— all of which made the top 10 on the Oricon weekly singles chart.
Eighth Wonder debuted at the number one spot on the Oricon weekly album chart, selling over 46,000 copies in its first week. The album is AAA's first studio album to achieve number one on the weekly charts, and second album overall, two years after their compilation album #AAABEST.
Release
Eighth Wonder is AAA's eighth album, released approximately 1 year since their previous album 777: Triple Seven. It is the first studio album by the group to contain 2 CDs. Disc 1 contains a total of 10 tracks, with only 1 track being new. Disc 2 contains a total of 6 tracks, composed of 4 new member duets, and 2 bonus tracks.
Group member Chiaki Ito explained the reason behind splitting the album into 2 CDs. She cited the flow of the tracks on the first disc as being too lovely, and thus the group decided to treasure that arrangement of tracks and put the rest of the tracks on a second disc.
A slowed down version of the music from this song is used in the DVD menus for the series Trailer Park Boys, as the backing of a song performed by the character of Tyrone.
The song was also featured in the 1983 PBS documentary Style Wars.

Lyrics:
Extra clever earthbound spirit
Ghost in the form of a mongoose
And I have hands and I have feet
I'll never die, I am a freak
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small but I am a freak
Thou wilt never know what I am
I am the fifth dimension and I will split the atom
And if you see me, you're paralyzed
Pillar of salt, you're mummified
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small but I am the eighth wonder
And I was born 1852
And I was born in India
And I shall haunt like the Buggane
With such weird noise and clanking chains
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall

Lyrics:
Your life's a mystery
Mine is an open book
If I could read your mind
I think I'd take a look
I don't care, baby
I'm not scared
What have you got to fight?
What do you need to prove?
You're always telling lies
And that's the only truth
I don't care, baby
I'm not scared
