La Roux es un dúo de synthpop de Brixton (Londres, Inglaterra) formado por la cantante y compositora Eleanor Jackson (más conocida como Elly Jackson) y Ben Langmaid, co-productor y co-escritor a la sombra, motivo por el cual Elly es conocida por el nombre del grupo.
Elly y Ben se conocieron en 2006 y su amistad les llevó a empezar a grabar cosas juntos bajo el nombre de "Automan", aunque tenían un sonido más acústico. Dos años después lanzarían, respaldados por la discográfica francesa Kitsuné, su primer sencillo "Quicksand".

Em Been there, done that, messed around D I'm having fun, don't put me down CG I'll never let you sweep me off my feet Em I won't let you in again D The messages I've tried to send CG My information's just not goin in Em Burning bridges, shore to shore D I break away from something more CG I'm not to, not to love until it's cheap Em Been there, done that, messed around D I'm having fun, don't put me down CG I'll never let you sweep me off my feet
[Chorus]
Em This time baby CAmG I'll be Bulletproof Em This time baby CAmG I'll be Bulletproof
EmDCG x2
[Verse 2]
Em I won't let you turn around, D I'll tell you now, I'm much too proud CG To walk away from something when it's dead Em Do do do your dirty worst D Come out to play when you are hurt CG There's certain things that should be left unsaid Em Tick tick tick tick on the watch D Life's too short for me to stop CG Oh baby, your time is running out Em I won't let you turn around D And tell me now, I'm much too proud CG All you do is fill me up with doubt
[Chorus]
Em This time baby CAmG I'll be Bulletproof Em This time baby CAmG I'll be Bulletproof
