Naked Eyes' "I Could Show You How" is okay, but I feel it sounds a little lonely and chilly. I definitely prefer "Always Something There To Remind Me!"
Do any of you remember the British synthpop duo,
Yazoo, formed in late 1981 by former Depeche Mode songwriter Vince Clarke (synthesizer) and Alison Moyet (vocals) (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yazoo_(band))? Clarke eventually formed Erasure, one of my favorite synthpop groups. I hadn't realized he was involved in all three groups.
Today a line from a sweet song I remember liking years ago suddenly ran through my head while I was unloading the dishwasher. I only recalled a fragment of the melody and these lyrics..."All I wanted was the love you gave...(something something something)...only you."
Thanks to Google, those lyrics led me to the song, "Only You," and I learned that it was by a duo called Yazoo. I also learned, to my surprise, that the main singer was a woman! All these years I thought the following song was sung by a man!
Yazoo - "Only You" (1982)
