"Hold Me Now" by the Thompson Twins
"When I'm With You" by Sheriff
"Human Beings" by Seal
You can kinda see how I get more and more drunk ambitious as the night progresses. Songs 2 & 3 had NO background vocals, which means I had to do some rather dextrous vocal stylings to get both the lead AND background vocals in. Songs 4 & 5...I just had to work on the breathing and the straining and the hoy glaven.

Falsetto is nothing, kid.

What I'm asking is, will there be any Depche Mode coming anytime soon?

Nope, yep, and probably not - there are...I think four DM songs in the book and I've already done "Just Can't Get Enough." People like to do "Policy of Truth" for some reason. The other two are "Personal Jesus" and....and.....maybe there's just three? Nothing that really grabbed me, at any rate.
Don't get me wrong - I'd love for there to be more! It's like Seal - there's TWO songs in there and I've done them both (the other one was "Kiss From a Rose" to save you some searching) and there's all kinds of other ones I'd LOVE to try...except they ain't there.
