Who Needs Love Like That
"Who Needs Love Like That" is the debut single of British synthpop duo Erasure. The song was released in the UK on Mute Records in 1985 as a prelude to their debut album, '' Wonderland'' (1986). The accompanying music video was directed by John Scarlett Davies and produced by Nick Verden for Aldabra. While the original 1985 release enjoyed only minor success, the later "Hamburg Mix" version (issued in 1992 to promote the ''Pop!'' compilation) reached the top 10 in both the UK and Ireland. History "Who Needs Love Like That" is an uptempo pop song written by Vince Clarke. The lyrics are a cast-off to a destructive love relationship, in which the protagonist asks "who needs love like that?" The music video takes place in a mock Western, with Clarke, Andy Bell and various extras dressed as cowboys. Both Bell and Clarke appear in dual roles, the others being woman's drags. Upon its release, the song spent two weeks in the UK singles chart, peaking at number 55. In 1992, the song wa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Fortran 5
Fortran 5 was an electronic music band active during the 1990s. Background The band were made up of members David Baker and Simon Leonard, who had previously worked together on the music project known as I Start Counting."Konnecting - I Start Counting" Sleeve Notes. Retrieved 8 June 2011. Around 1990, they had begun recording new material, and realised that the new music had a different sound compared to their previous electropop style. They decided to rename their project Fortran 5 in order to give their new dance/techno style a fresh start. The new project also involved the duo collaborating and working with a number of other artists. These included Kris Weston of The Orb, and Rod Slater from Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band. The band's final album was titled ''Avocado Suite'' and was their most experimental work; this was far removed from their early electropop sound. Fortran 5 also remixed songs from artists such as Inspiral Carpets, Erasure and Laibach. Simon Leonard also wrote a no ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Abba-esque
''Abba-esque'' is an extended play (EP) by British synth-pop duo Erasure. Released on 1 June 1992, the EP was Erasure's first and only number one on the UK Singles Chart and also became a number-one hit in Austria, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Ireland, and Sweden. As big fans of the Swedish group ABBA, Erasure (Vince Clarke and Andy Bell) had often performed ABBA songs in concert over the years. They had originally planned to release an album of ABBA covers but instead opted to release an EP of four of ABBA's best known hits. Background Mute Records released ''Abba-esque'' in the UK, while Elektra Records released it in the US. Music videos were produced for all four tracks, and issued as a video EP on VHS. A remix EP was also released by Mute Records in the UK which featured the same four songs in heavily reworked form. Shortly after the release, ABBA's '' Gold: Greatest Hits'' album was released, sparking a revival of ABBA's music that has endured well into the 21st centu ...

The Very Best of Erasure, Hits!'' compilations respectively. However, the album fared better in both Germany and Sweden, where it charted within the top 20. Erasure's initial exposure in the US came via dance clubs, as two singles reached the top 10 on ''Billboard'' Hot Dance Club Songs, Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart.
