    I’m gobsmacked I’m 57 grew up loving bobby o Patrik cowley John foxx omd etc etc this has taken me back to 1981 .congratulations to you for reinventing the 80s vibe the best era ever in music in my opinion

      Agreed, I'm 37, but I love that 80's vibe, in my case depeche mode is my favourite particularly the wilder era, and this absolutely reminds me that vibes like you said omd etc.

    Hey folks. Over a year ago, my partner sent me to your album and I fell in love with it (when I last commented on this video, you all had about 2k views on it). Three nights ago, we got to see you live in Seattle. It was our first live music experience in over 2 years due to the ongoing pandemic. The iconic venue you were supposed to play has been closed for over a year because they lost their lease. So you were in a literal community center with a garbage sound system. Yet it was still sold out. You set up your own instruments on stage. And I'm pretty sure I saw one of you behind the merch counter for a minute selling shirts. And we couldn't be more honored to have shared this evening with you. We're all looking for beautiful things and you brought that to us on many levels-- some that would be impossible to explain, but as artists, I hope you understand. For a night, I felt a Seattle I haven't felt in a long time. I saw artists singing and dancing their hearts out. I felt* the music my partner and I have shared for over a year (which somehow made it seem more real). You're out on a tour right now, so this night will likely just be one of a big blurry rollercoaster in your story, but for us, it's a significant ring in our lives' tree, so thank you.

    You buried me

    You buried me
    Right where I belonged
    And still, I'm waiting there
    On division st
    I would like to find the answers I was always rudely denied
    A song so sweet
    From back when I was born
    The loving creak
    Of floorboards by the door
    Hopeful I waited, hopeful I called
    But no one would answer at all
    On division st
    I would like to find the answers I was always rudely denied

    I absolutely love this song and band. I am a child of the 80’s. My favorite music is from bands like new order, omd, the human league, erasure, Alphaville. These guys do an amazing job of capturing that vibe and sound. Lead singer in this video reminds me of myself in 1989. Same hair style, clothes. Love it.

My brother in law played this while bbq’in, drinking beer and smoking bud. When this song came on. It was over. It did it at that moment. It brought back memories of late 80’s. Song is straight fire. Thanks for you talent. Keep up the great awesome work. Keep the great music coming. ❤️🍻🥃
