Great version. I know Erasure and its band members achieved massive success, I think sometimes the fact that they(and other 80’s pop bands) were making pop / electronic / dance music, they did not get as much recognition as they should have as “serious” singer/songwriters. I think your acoustic version highlights what a beautiful song they wrote.
Nailed it. Had the Erasure cassette in the late 80's as I headed off to college. Even gave new copies as gifts several times as it was a magnificent album. LOVE this version...fabulous, Neil.
I tried to discover A little something to make me sweeter Oh baby, refrain From breaking my heart I'm so in love with you I'll be forever blue That you gave me no reason You know you're making me work so hard That you give me no, that you give me no That you give me no, that you give me no soul I hear you calling Oh baby, please (give a little respect to me) Give a little respect to me And if I should falter Would you open your arms out to me? We can make love, not war And live with peace in our hearts I'm so in love with you I'll be forever blue What religion or reason Could drive a man to forsake his lover? Don't you tell me no, don't you tell me no Don't you tell me no, don't you tell me no soul I hear you calling Oh baby, please (give a little respect to me) Give a little respect to me I'm so in love with you I'll be forever blue That you give me no reason You know you're making me work so hard That you give me no, that you give me no That you give me no, that you give me no soul I hear you calling Oh baby, please (give a little respect to me) Give a little respect to me I hear you calling Oh baby, please (give a little respect to me) Give a little respect to me
Madness,could listen to you for hours...It is still incomprehensible to me that neither a record company contracted you nor that you are not singing full-time! Greetings from Germany
Caro, Neil! Estou sem palavras para descrever tamanha admiração pela sua competência... executa cada canção com muita propriedade. Você é show de muito talento! Deus abençoe você mais e mais...!
Perfectly handled. Beautiful voice. I get the meaning of the song so much better this way. This should be a single. Who the hell are you and where did you come from?! Good grief, this is great.
@@MrNeilbanks I will say more. The original of this song passed by my ear completely indifferently. Your performance sounds fantastic and I could listen to it forever
Thank you my friend, I don’t have Spotify or anything like that, I’m not a professional or anything just started posting during the Covid pandemic to occupy my mind and entertain a few people
