INFORMATION

Lyrics:

Go ahead with your dreaming
For what it's worth
Or you'll be stricken bound
Kicking up dirt
For when it's dark
You never know what the night it may bring
Go ahead with your scheming
And shop at home
You'll find treasure
While cooking up bones
But the knife is sharp
You'd better watch that you don't cut your hands
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
Go ahead with your dreaming
For what it's worth
Or you'll be stricken bound
Kicking up dirt
For when it's dark
You never know what the night it may bring
Go ahead with your scheming
And shop at home
You'll find treasure
While cooking up bones
But the knife is sharp
You'd better watch that you don't cut your hands
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
Holy Moses our hearts are screaming
Souls are lifting only dreaming
We'll be waiting some are praying
For a time when no one's cheating
The sunlight rising over the horizon
Just a distant memory the dawn chorus
Birds singing bells ringing
In our hearts in our minds
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep

When you decide to browse Erasure hits and it takes four hours. Such an inspiring band, pop gold !

[brandonbarney]

The opening with Andy and Vince rising out of the water with all that synth equipment. 😍

[bellaboobies]

If you are here with memories of a care free youth then your smiling right now 😊

[rogerkay]

Not everyone is an Erasure fan, some people are just not wired that way, massive loss.

[sarakirk]

The best duo ever! Not afraid to be different and in every video they bring us such a treat. The hair raising amazing voice that is Andy Bell and genius Vince Clarke. This is such a masterpiece like others say on here. Turn it up loud 🎶🎶

[wernerladislaoarmas]

Erasure the best of my life i have known

[millionaire]

This is a monster! Way ahead of its time! I’m sure there were plenty of electronic music genres that took inspiration from Vince Clarke!

[evertondave]

My kids love Erasure they are 14 and 5

[vanderslagmulders]

Sometimes it just seems random bad luck that a song doesn’t become a great hit.

[squeker]

I watched parts of this video being filmed at Burling Gap on the south coast of England... It was a chance discovery by me, but such an incredibly memorable day as I got to talk to Vince & many of the crew... great memories!

[rayrae]

Perfect song for the solar eclipse, today. Love from OHIO

[jamesjeffrey]

How young do they lads look? Wish I could go back to this time and the clubs again and listen to this great music

[atticradio]

Perfect Pop. I remember this making me want some dungarees and floppy blonde hair more than anything! Vince and Andy should be the next Doctor Who...

[whiskygalore]

A perfect match, Vince has some history. Depeche mode, Yazoo and Erasure. A true trailblazer in his time

[debbiecullen]

One of my fav . memories is dancing away with my Bro to this song...RIP Kevvy💖

[MiaMaven]

Been listening since the 80's. Erasure was way ahead of its time, way under appreciated but always remind me of my favorite times before aids, before internet crime, before MTV quit playing music, before the san fransisco earthquake, before enron, before the avian flu before 9-11, before the oct 1st Massacre in Las Vegas, before Corona virus and because of that Erasure will always have a special place in my heart and remind me of better times❤💜.

[lindykandohla-donker]

Back in the 80's I loved Erasure. I missed a lot of songs from the 90's, too busy travelling. But I have just heard this for the 1st time ! What a True, Amazing, Sad song. 💙💛💚 Erasure Forever 💙💛💚 xxx

[beorntordensjold]

It's amazing how much tech was needed to make this music, compared to the present.

[tangerine]

Poland Love Erasure So Much :-), Vincent Clarke Is A Genius Of Synthpop !!

[glennaustin]

Wow! This was 30 years ago!
Timeless... Now... The Future...
