I just say him in concert last night in Kent Ohio. He sounds so much better live than on a CD. After the show was over I thought to myself, that it was one of the best, most intimate performances I have ever seen.
Originally i thought this song was by "The Flying Pickets" (a British A Cappella group) who did a version in 1983. As Xanthosine correctly points out, the original song was by Yaz (i heard this later off "Upstairs at Eric's").
Either way, the Joshua Radin version is by far the best.
Originally written as a synth-pop song by Vince Clarke. Clarke was with Depeche Mode @ the time, and offered it to them as a leaving present. They turned him down so he performed it with Alison Moyet as one half of the synth pop duet Yazoo (Yaz in the US). This is a beautiful version, but I naturally love the original more.
No mate it's your 'best version', a fine cover yes, but please don't give us 80s Yazoo fans all the !!!!!! nonsense - each is very different and great in its own way

Original from Yazoo (1982) and reached number 2 or 3 in the UK charts.
1983 Flying Pickets did an a capella version and it reached number one in britain around X-mas.
This version by Joshua is great by the way, thnx for sharing. And who is the girl? Their voices match up perfectly!!!!

This song reminds me of a lesser electronica version of "All Of Your Love" By: Hellogoodbye. Especially the a capella version.
