  • High quality audio. A Rare version of "Waves" 12'' (UltraTraxx Extended Mix)
    What are these waves
    they're coming over me
    it must be my destiny.
    Waves - and then goodbye
    I live in a wafer thin dream.
    I - I can't cry
    you know the time,
    time's not kind.
    But I remember the
    way we were
    the slow
    slow sad love.
    I wonder
    do you miss my love
    I know you can't
    It's just a wave
    passing over me.
    What are these waves
    they're coming over me
    it must be my destiny.
    What are these waves
    they're coming over me
    it must be my destiny.
    Waves
    goodbye - goodbye - goodbye.
    What are these waves
    they're coming over me
    it must be my destiny.

    I love Blancmange's uniqueness both in sound and lyrics. Even their instrumentals stand out. Waves, for me, is the best song they did. It just has an indefinable something extra. Great to hear this extended mix. It saves me hitting "repeat" quite as often! :-)

    • @christopheradderley45
      @christopheradderley45 Před 5 měsíci +1

      Spot on Marq. I completely agree with you.
      I could try to describe "Waves" as ethereal, beautiful or haunting and it still wouldn't do it justice.
      I think that your word "indefinable" is best. Cheers mate 🧡

    Such a beautiful track. "Waves" sends me back to 1983, and seeing Blancmange at The Hammersmith Palais. A standing only venue, that soon turned into a magically happy sweaty disco of swirling synthesizers and sitars. Brilliant concert and all for £3.50.....although the memories remain priceless 🧡

    I guess this is as close to an unofficial extended version as it gets.
    Officially there never really was an extended version of this song.
    There was however the original version, which didn't have the strings on it. (Can be found on first pressings of the LP, Happy Families.) That string-less version is also the longest at about 4.25.
    What might top this (Ultra Traxx) remix, would be to create an extended version by mixing the two versions: The strings/no strings.
    Something to think about. 🙂
