It's easier for me to get closer to Heaven
Than ever feel whole again

Happy BDay!

if I remember well, he wrote "Just can't get enough"...amazing song!
Lets my memory be perverted to the uses    
Of lying and oppression.    
My lovers and their children must not be dispossessed of me;
I would be the untarnished possession forever
Of those for whom I lived.
(Spoon River Anthology, E.L.M.)

MeltingMan

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the original is a 1985 masterpiece. Enjoy it!

I know it is in the Black Celebration album that was released on March 1986

Yes Susanna you're right. The album track is from 1986, but it was also an initial
B-Side for It's Called A Heart, released in 1985. Definite not a run-of-the-mill song. ;)

This is one of my favourite tracks by the Erasure, though THE favourite one would actually be Siren Song, as it sounds so much like a Depeche Mode song when Vince was still around...
"I'm alone
like a rainbow
you'll never put out."

Another favourite of mine by The Erasure: Breath of Life

The video is also special because you can still see the twin towers of the WTC.  :'(
