ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!!! Just wish I could find the 12'' version of Say You on YT, though, especially that I still have the vinyl at home. Has anyone seen it?
That violin is good I more string sections and romance did you know a rose tree in the Equatorial climate flowers more but lasts less I feel like this looking for love but flowering to much that why i like this song next dung pit of chance has lots of perfume
FUCKING AWESOME SONG>>>>>>!! Colourbox were so bloody great and ahead of their time. Too bad they packed it in after M/A/R/R/S. THis has to be one of the finest electro-pop-torch songs ever. Just listen t the way it soars soulfully into stratospheric heights. It should have been a massive hit. The memories of the mid 80s - filled with so much pre-packaged shite and yet also such underrated gems as this (and label mates Cocteau Twins...)
The romantic Big-Band sound of Colourbox. Just see how long you can resist singing along with the chorus. Not long, I'll warrant! A classic song. If you don't like this, you've no business listening to the good stuff. So there.
excellent song by an excellent band. i played the CAD508 album til my ears bled in 1985, i had to go out and buy another vinyl copie and record player stereo just to hear it again a few years back.
I have this on vinyl too. And since my other half bought a new amp that doesnt take turntables I can't hear it. Brilliant to hear it again - fab song!! :-)
this song takes my breath away every time... but damn, hard to find...so glad I did. thanks for putting it up! this is definately a favourite (as always in my soul).
I have all these songs on vinyl, but it's great to see them here. When I play these songs for my wife and she looks at me like I'm out of my mind because she never heard of Colourbox or the 4AD label back in the day I can point to Youtube and say I'm not alone.
Then again, with so few views while a cat chasing a ball can get 1,000,000 hits, I realize, okay, we're practically alone...
I'd like to see the video that was shot for this song.The guys asked me to do the drums.From what i remember it was shot in a night club in Soho. nice one
¡Moose!

When I was growing up in the 1980s I'd only spend time with girls who knew this track. It's still a decent compass.

Incredible, I have this record in my closet it's been at least 20 years since I've heard this. My favorite cut from this album.
I almost sold the album at a garage sale but at the last second I decided to keep it.
I may have to get a record player tomorrow. Thanks for putting this up...

I loved this and bought the album, rather eclectic, reckon it was 85.
Still love it today! Reckon Any Wino or Duffy could do a great cover of this

I remember that Sandi Shaw picked "TMIB" in NME singles of the week purely so she could hear "this song that everyone is talking about" ! happy days.
follow with their version of "You Keep Me Hanging On"
