Modern English - I Melt With You (Lockdown Version)

Listen to the single "I Melt With You"

LYRICS
Moving forward using all my breath
Making love to you was never second best
I saw the world crashing all around your face (let me hear you)
Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace (c'mon)
I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference
And it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you
Trapped in a state of imaginary grace
I made a pilgrimage to save this human race
Never comprehending the race has long gone by (c'mon)
I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference
And it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you
The future's open wide
I'll stop the world and melt with you
I've seen some changes
But it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you, yeah
The future's open wide
Let's sing along
Hmmm hmmm hmmm
Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm
Hmmm hmmm hmmm
Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm
(Woah woah woah woah woah)
Woah woah woah
Woah woah woah woah (pathetic, absolutely pathetic)
Woah woah woah
Woah woah woah woah
I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference
And it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you
I'll stop the world and melt with you
I'll stop the world and melt with you

Let's just say the truth...this was one of the best songs of the 80's, maybe even all time.

[Lilith_SD]

That was lovey. I closed my eyes and was young again. Thank you, gentlemen.

[hozonkai]

Thank You Modern English for this Masterpiece. The 80s wouldn't have been complete without it

[luisvelazquez]

I would stop the world and go back to the 80s. Great Memories, Great Band.

[colleenclapper]

My husband's and my song. 32 yrs of marriage (35 years of dating). We've gone through losing two children, me having a life threatening illness, medical debt, a fatal family accident, etc...but we still hold hands, check off bucket list items, AND dance to this song whenever it comes on! Thanks for creating a song that always gives us hope!!!

[alsilva]

God I miss the 80’s. I’d go back if I could. You can have the 2000’s

[Vike]

Back in the late 80's 2 buddies of mine were at a local bar and there was this band upstairs performing this song. The band came down to the bar after the set was over and my one friend said to one of the band members "You guys sound a lot like the band that actually released that song." Response from one of the band members :" We are the band who released that song". Jaws dropped shortly thereafter....

[simplyguy]

I’m 54 and tears are in my eyes . . . thank you guys, a walk down memory lane !

[davidwhitmore]

Modern English is the most underrated band of the 1980's.

[beesteboy]

I'll never forget the movie "Valley Girl" when they play this song at the end. Still sounds amazing after all these years!

[dougelick]

How strange to feel so young and old at the same time. Thank you for this.

[kevinohare]

I've loved this song for nearly 40 years, and this version sounds as awesome as the original. Thanks for spreading so much musical happiness over the years.

[mocowan]

God, to go back and be a teenager in the ‘80s again...

[greenbrown]

I worked almost 13 hours yesterday. And it's 1:30 a.m. So maybe I'm just tired and raw, but I had an unexpectedly strong emotional reaction listening this.
An overwhelming feeling of simultaneous happiness and sadness that was hard to take and yet I didn't want to end. Very strange. And while I always liked the song, it was never something deep and personal to me. Until now.

[amherst]

"The future's open wide " . . . that's what it was like for those of us who were young in the 80's . . .

[Knickerson]

I was just saying to my wife, no one has ever made a decent cover of I Melt With You. And you just proved it—only Modern English can cover Modern English.

[anthonyyoutubefan]

So, Modern English and The Pet Shop Boys are creating new old classics on YouTube...both of these "home recordings" need to be released on the radio and as singles...NOW!

[ladybug]

If it's possible for them to sound even better than That was awesome!

[foozjen]

"The future's open wide!" Ah to be young again.

[MikeBMW]

For a moment, I didn't give f-all about what's happening right now and was transported to better days.
Thank you! :)
