His 'n' Hers is the fourth studio album by English rock band Pulp, released on 18 April 1994 by Island Records. It proved to be the band's breakthrough album, reaching number nine on the UK Albums Chart,^[4] and was nominated for the 1994 Mercury Music Prize. In 1998, Q magazine readers voted it the seventieth greatest album of all time, while it was placed at number 110 in the book Virgin All-Time Top 1000 Albums.^[4]

'Lipgloss', 'Do You Remember the First Time?', 'Razzmatazz', and a new mix of 'Babies' were released as singles, the latter as part of the Sisters EP.

A 'deluxe edition' of His 'n' Hers was released on 11 September 2006. It contained a second disc of B-sides, demos and rarities.

Themes and content[edit]

Lyrically, the album encompasses subjects for which Pulp were to become well known, including sexual encounters, social class and voyeurism.^[4]

Robyn Strachan retrospectively describes the opener 'Joyriders' as setting the tone for the album with 'acerbic observation and lurking seediness and decay'.^[15]

'She's a Lady' takes much of its musical inspiration from Gloria Gaynor's 'I Will Survive'.^[16]

The album closer, 'David's Last Summer', is notable as being one of Pulp's most narrative songs, delivered entirely in spoken word apart from the chorus despite being an uptempo track.
