VHM Todd, I don't know how anyone can not like "Bang on the Drum".


I manage, somehow.   :wink:

I won't get to hear any replays but a BOS vote to "Only You," which I'd love for Vince Clarke to revive with Andy Bell singing the lead.


I always thought it was funny that Clarke teamed up with Bell -- when Erasure first appeared I thought Bell sounded a bit like Moyet... and when I first heard Yaz(oo), I thought Moyet was a guy.

You've heard the a capella version of "Only You" by the Flying Picketts, yes?
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Oh, the vocal resemblance between Madames Moyet and Bell is remarkable.  Alas, I don't know the cover of which you speak.

Meantime, co-BOS to "Jokerman," which I'd never heard until 1994 and remains a sledgehammer of that summer.

BOS4 Yaz, "Only You" -- a 10@10 bustout? can't recall anyone playing it, tho' Rob may have.  Ms Moyet at her most endearing.


BTW, her last two albums have been magnificent.  Both were slept on in the States; I'm not sure the earlier ever got a proper U.S. release.  But wow, her voice moves me like few others.
