"Close... But" is the fourth and final single from Echobelly's debut album Everyone's Got One. It was released by the Britpop group in September 1994.

Contents

The song was included on the greatest hits album I Can't Imagine The World Without Me.

A music video was made for the song. The song tries express Sonya's feeling of loneliness despite being surrounded by a lot of friends at the time.

The song was poorly perceived by AllMusic, who gave it 1.5 stars out of 5, and described it as "not one of the album's high points". It reached number 59 in the UK Singles Chart.
