HI Rob & Anne-Marie.

Very Depeche Mode and if you're going to have a signature sound this is a great choice.

An excellent backing track and you sound really comfortable singing this style.

The arrangement and mix are first class and the whole package with the video is professional through and through. Really glad you finally got around to posting this one!

Cheers, ROG.

Rob & Anne-Marie,

I enjoy the romance you put into synth-pop. This may be an early example but your production is at a high level and as ROG says you are very comfortable with this vocal style.
The sax break works very well.

Hello, Rob & Anne-Marie

Very catchy and pop!
The melody is so pleasant.
Vocals are superb as always.
The modulations from C# minor to F minor and then to the relative key of the original key surprise us.
And they are very smooth.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Depeche Mode ey,.... Well, I don't immediately see the resemblance.
Although I'm a big fan of their earlier (80s) work.
Thanks for the positive comment, yes, this was one that somehow got forgotten. The kind of song that you always want to post but then another new song comes up which you want to post first, ha ha.

Thanks again!

Rob
