Dreaming of Me by Depeche Mode
“Basic Blondie/Cars post-punk harmony, but masterfully done with synth. Listen to the alto synth noodling at 1:35 or so, disappear for a while under the soprano synth, then come back midway through the bridge and stay through to the next verse. Pay attention to how it stops wandering during the hook, and listen to the bass rip as the vocals and synths come together in harmony. Pop magic.”

Pop genius from Vince Clarke.
Started re-listening to old Depeche Mode songs, and this is my new late-summer jam all over again.
A little nostalgia.
Is that a goth theramin riff a few seconds in?
