Just can't get enough DM

(4 out of 5 stars)
"One of DM's early classics, a Top 10 hit in the U.K. in late 1981 which got into the American dance charts the following year. Although it is very light and happy and may be seen as fluff compared to their more recent material, and although Dave Gahan still needed a few more years of vocal training when this was recorded, this is the perfect song to listen to when you want to feel good - it's one of the few DM songs that actually can arouse that type of emotion. Also one of the few DM songs written by Vince Clarke that I can actually understand!!!! (Thank God he went on to Yaz and Erasure - his future was not with DM.) I laugh when I think of how critics hated them for songs like this...... it's super-sweet bubblegum but it won't rot your teeth. One of my all-time favorite DM songs."
