John - I love Erasure, too!!

[AnninIowa]

John - I've been listening to old podcasts and I heard you say that you love Erasure. Me, too!! My best friend discovered them when she went to prep school out east and brought them back to Iowa. I'm listening to "Wild!" right now on my iPhone.

So cool to find someone else who likes this group!! "The Innocents" is one of my favorite albums of all time.

Ahh, it is not just two Ann! I have liked them for years as well.

You should give Andy Bell's solo album (Electric Blue) a listen - in my opinion he is a genius.

Preview the songs on iTunes - check out Caught in a Spin and Crazy...

When first hearing that podcast, I really didn't know what Erasure was. But once, I saw this post... I went over to YouTube to take a look and see what songs Erasure was best known for, and low and behold... most of it or some of it for that matter was music featured on our soundtracks at Abercrombie & Fitch. Let me tell you how listening to those songs BLARING made some good times for us in the stockroom rockin' out. So in short, thanks for pointing me in the right direction as to the name of this artist this way now I can download old A&F tunes.

Erasure has always been one of my favorites, too!

I can remember having a hard time remembering the name of the group, until my friend would say, "You know, the thing at the end of your pencil"! I crack up every time I think about that.

Never heard of them.

Set your time-machine back to the 80's....

 

[BRobson]

Never heard of them.

Must be too young then

I saw them live a bunch of times (including at Red Rocks) in the 80s, when they were first becoming popular. If you like them, you should really check out Yaz- Upstairs at Erics.

Oh we LOVE Yaz too! This will lake you back...we had Upstairs at Eric's on cassette tape.

Love, love LOVE Erasure! They got me through college in the 80's! "Give a little respect toooooooo me! That that--that you give me no..."

Kevin, while they *are* only your OPINIONS (I don't think they're bankrupt at all, btw, lol), I dig your 80's taste in music
