This is one of their signature songs, with a melancholic melody and an uplifting synth arrangement blending together exquisitely.
The album was a hit in the UK charts and was one of the catalysts that propelled them to become central figures in the synth-pop scene of the late '80s.
The song was composed by Vince Clarke and features vocals by Andy Bell. The song features a striking melody line with a touch of melancholy amidst the glittering electro sound, and Bell's high-pitched vocals add a dramatic quality to the track. The balance of pop and melancholy is a unique charm of Erasure.
