As a bonus, here's a live, Jazz-inflused version that Sylvian did as a solo artist about 13 years ago. His voice has aged wonderfully since first recording this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5GlA-WhCoM
I knew this voice was familiar when you posted your last Jam - I'm watching Monster at the moment and Sylvian did the ED for the first half of the show, I just realised. The Satie-esque piano is wonderful in this also.
@lewwatt That was actually where I first heard any of Sylvian's music. I was obsessed with the Monster ED for a while, but I didn't really get into his music until years later. You would love his more ambient-based solo material from the early 00s.

@isajward9 You might also like "Burning Bridges" off of the same album, though this track is more synth-based: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3cwi09zsWI

@Enish I'll use it as a stepping stone should I start listening to his music then.
