I prefer 70's music. :-) I don't like the tinny 80's drumbeats. Prefer proper drums.

@zebedee1970

They cost more money. And they need a good drummer.

[cvdqr]

Is it true that the guy from Depeche Mode started this group?

[roddy76to86]

@cvdqr

Yes, "Vince" left Depeche Mode after their first hit single, and formed "Yazoo" ("Yaz" in the USA, due to some copyright nonsense) with Alison Moyet.

Good stuff. Piercing words,and beat;a powerhouse of sound and eclectic verbatim. Anyway... What? twenty years old? Still kicks arse.

[roddy76to86]

@Mrgalacticone

Actually 28 years old !

As far as most music was concerned I couldnt agree more with the title of this one, superb sound (and album) one of the best 80's electro tracks, brillaint live aswell. What an era !!!!!.

I wasn't born in the 80's but boy some of the music from that decade was genius. This shows up a lot of modern day acts. The electronic sound and stupendous vocals of Alison Moyet (that some one like Gaga could only dream of copying). Great group, great song and great album!

@kevanickes One hit or 2, are u joking? Erasure has 17 top ten singles, 24 top20 hits consecutive between 1986 and 1997. They had a couple of failures after that, in 2005 they had another Hit number 4 "Breathe". They released their 14th album "Tomorrow's World" last October, Vince wasn't. still IS a Genius. What sucks with Erasure is that Radio prefers to play garbage like the one we can listen anywhere, letting great bands without the chance to be on the charts.

@MrCarl220 Erasure is still good, they released their 14th album "Tomorrow's World" last October.

[MrCarl220]

@keith2908 Oh yes, Erasure was good! Never heard the Assembly though!

@cvdqr just right vince clark after depeche mode yazoo  erasure [with other guy gay .....

One of my all time favourite 80's synth tracks, such an exciting time, no more banging on stretched pig skins with a stick or twanging strings to get sound and rythm, long live Linn drum machines and Moog Emulators. PLUG IT IN, PROGRAMME IT UP, AND LET IT GO !!!.

[keith2908]

Vince Clarke has been responsible for some great groups, Depeche Mode, Yazoo, Erasure and The Assembly. He has no doubt been the inspiration of many other synth pop groups as well.
