Lyrics:
It's not the way you lead me
By the hand into the bedroom
It's not the way you throw your clothes
Upon the bathroom floor
Been thinking about you
I just couldn't wait to see
Fling my arms around you
As we fall in ecstasy
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder
Than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart
That decides
It's not the way you caress me
Toy with my affection
It's not my sense of emptiness
You fill with your desire
Climb in bed beside me
We can lock the world outside
Touch me satisfy me
Warm your body next to mine
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder
Than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart
That decides
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder
Than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart
That decides
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder
Than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart
That decides

Love these 80's songs - way better than most of todays music.
Thank you guys!

@@danieldawidowicz5966 Well you are not really wrong. Our western world controlled by pax americana is an evil and highly disturbed entity
"Sometimes"?... No, I listen this Song regularly because I like it! And Vince Clarke is so cool in the Music clip, swinging his Guitar! 🎸
Vince Clarke is a musical genius.
When you know you know.
Perfect! He's the founder of Depeche Mode!
Looking back i am so glad he left DM😂❤
And what about Andy Bell?
VCMG (Vince Clarke & Martin Gore) is a great example
The musical complexity and timelessness of this song are amazing.
One of the best 80' s groups ever. Thank you boys !!!!!
Don't push it. They have 1 good song and it isn't even this.
Well, what ones that then?
Indeed, brilliant and fresh music
Súhlas 👍🍀
this song great@@jis87BE
Andy Bell was the 49th choice of singer for Erasure, can you believe that. What a performance by both of them.
Ohh brother, this is amazing. So glad I was born in 1963. I used to love dancing 🕺 to this. Andy Bell and Vince, brilliant! 👍🇬🇧
Same
I met them in Long Island at a club the angle and got autographs omg they rocked
I will always remeber that i met the singer in a dutch pub long time ago and was sitting next to me and we had a nice conversation
excuse me, you met the fantastic Andy , not just a singer, lucky you
I wish I could turn back time. There will never exist such a wonderful music as in the 80's and 90's
Vince Clarke....Depeche Mode....Yazoo....Erasure....the Best Musician....
one of the best things about 50 years old,is the fact that i lived my teenage years in the 80's that is priceless and I am grateful!!!
At nearly 53 I Couldn't agree more... Oh what a wonderful time to have been a teenager... Yearn for those times past
I’m there with ya, great era 👏👏👏👏👍
Yeah, same, I´m 49!
You commented the same on dolce vita lol
I am 57 and born in scotland and I love my 80s music.
Andy Bell is a lovely man.A great performer.
No world without Erasure. They built up a new concept of music , even when there were other Superbands like Depeche Mode and many others
Andy Bell does not get the recognition he deserves as a singer. Absolutely love this track.
One ticket back to the 80s please?
I'm building a time machine as we speak and it's going to be bigger on the inside so when it's done I'll let you know and we can all go anywhen we wish!
@@Boppinabe ooh can I come please??
@@Old-Wheelbarrow of course!
Bring a sweater.
Andy is AMAZING . My childhood 1988..6 years old..i remember...radios..radios in Brazil all the time
Ich komme mit
Can we just go back to the 80s...Erasure is no doubt one of the greatest bands to ever form. Vince and Andy are just timeless with their ability to still produce and record fantastic music!
Vince Clarke wrote songs for bands like Yazoo, Depeche Mode, loads of others. The man is super talented
Everything Vince Clark
touches turns to gold.
ERASURE / GOOD TIMES POP 90
Pop 80's❤
One of the best songs of the 80s. My then boyfriend introduced me to Erasure and I'll always be grateful.
STEVEN T. R.I.P. my best pal ever. I touched your hair and petted your brow. Kissed you one last goodbye. We were lifelong time best friends, and when I looked at you sleeping as so many times before I thought for a moment I only had to say Steven wake up and expected you to shake your head open your eyes and say right common what are we doing are we having a we drink. God bless you, my pal. Forever your pal Andy.
God bless his and your loving soul ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Although I never noticed at the time, the 80s had so many great bands and amazing music
100% the 80s produced the best electro synth pop music the 90s produced the best dance music especially the trance scene, and in 2024 they produce an avalanche of shit that nobody cares about or will even look back at. its all disposable manufacturerd garbage.
Saw them in concert in the late '80's at the London Docklands, this man can really sing. No seat was being used, everyone there was up and dancing, in the aisles and every space available, a massive dance floor. Great fun.
Must have been amazing to see.
This is why rewind festivals go through tickets quickly peaple don't like modern music we all like to take that time machine and go back to when music was back like in those dance hall days
If it was the Wild tour, 10 Dec 1989, it’s on UA-cam. And it was great fun to be there!
That was a brilliant gig! Venue exists no more 😢
Yes I was there at the docklands too as a teen. Such nostalgic memories! Their music was brilliant.
This song was a typical erasure's 80s song. One of their best if not the best!
I remember living in Germany as my Dad was serving there as a soldier. We had a music show on BFBS on a Saturday and they played this. Absolutely a brilliant song.
Im 70 next month and still love these guys. Xx
After all this years. Still the best pop song of all time for me. Each fragment fits perfectly into the song. Great mix of synthetic and acoustic sounds. Andy's voice at the peak of his creativity. There is nothing that could improve this song. And honestly... a song with a trumpet solo that you can still dance to. Who would do it today?
I see that you are passionate about sounds like me and acoustic synthesizers, it is a pleasure to read a comment like yours. I'm from Brazil and I recommend you a channel to watch cool videos of classics in world music. www.youtube.com/@DX5

..there are no musici ans these days anymore...
Vince Clarke is a musical genius
I was little older when the 80's music came out.....I was 24. When I was a teenager, I was into 70's prog rock. However when the 80's and this type of music came out, I fell in love with it. To me, this was my favourite era of music. I loved all the bands that came out. I'm 62 now and I will always go back and listen to this great music. It makes you want to get up and dance, like i'm doing now, to this great tune by Erasure.
Absolutely loved Erasure, back in the day. And it's not as I grow older, 'm now in my 50's, that I realise the number of awesome bands that I kinda missed back in the day! Everytime I start UA-cam I'm now flying through the 70's, 80's and 90's. What a great time to be alive!
In my 50s too and been revisting all the great bands I loved 😍 in my teens
I was in London In 1986 and we used to go to a Pub off Piccadilly circus and listening to this song on a big screen

and it will never stop....i am 57 and also remember the 80ies as if it has been yesterday. so many incredible memories...
I am 60, positive vibes do not know age♥
🎉
I am neearly 59. I'm with you!!! One of best!!😀😀😀
I still want his guitar
I need a time machine right now!! To go back to the 80’s and 90’s music was so much more enjoyable with way more talented singers then today!
2023 and I'm listening awesome duo
One of the best tracks ever committed to master tape
So many hits by Erasure. Loved the 80s so much....
Wieso hast du geliebt ? Wir lieben sie für immer !
Omg I was there
Who agrees that 80s music is the best?
Nothing can beat the eigthies
@@anjasmolders2013 I agree despite being born in 2008
80s music will always be king.
🙋♀️
Yeah music has been, in a few words, ugly and evil ever since
Everytime people got to dance to an 80's song, you would forget about anything, not a care in the world, bring all this music back and and dance the covid-19 night away
love your positive attitude 💓
Stuff stupid Covid!!! Poxy virus.
Awesome 😎
its maybe not evern real anyway karen
habe mich immer gefragt, wareum vince bei demo weg ist! dann kamm erasure und mir war alles klar! trotz allem ist die musik am wichtigsten und das konnte vince bei demo und auch mit andy!
Vince Clarke is one of the best British song writers ever. He was 60 last week 😱
Hes not looking it or showing it living in the USA must be doing him good
Yes he is ... in fact listening to Sometimes, at 0:23 I hear the a sound effect that Depeche Mode might have borrowed for their hit Enjoy The Silence ?
@@88feji in fact, he was founder of Depeche Mode... he wrote Just can't get enough, just to mention one song. Then formed Yazoo with Alison Moyet, and the Erasure. Really a great artist, that's for sure!
A real genius of electronic sounds, e.g. Yazoo and Depeche! 🎹🎶🌹🦋✨
Yes Vince is a genius - but with Erasure you have to give Andy half the credit for writing all the lyrics.... it's a 50/50 partnership
Can't believe this was released 34 years ago, life goes by so fast!!
Time flies as the monkey said when the clock fell on him.
Time flys. It goes by surprise 🙈
This is the best x
But didn't we all have a good life back then ?
It does, so make the most of every day 👍🏻
Watching this is 2022! His voice, I had forgotten how perfect it was! Listening to it over and over you realise how amazing Andy Bell was with his singing talent
Not kidin duk, 👌🤗
Watching in 2023
And the winner of the male category in the 1986 edition of the rooftop dancing wet T-shirt competition is...

watching this in January of 2024 in southern Japan.

Can't believe I forgot about this song! Takes me straight to the wonderful past🥹❤
Real people, real music, lovely imperfection and no smartphones... love that tune, love the band. Thanks for so many years of fabulous music guys.
This song and Erasure as a band always reminds me of my school time friend, Scott Wilks.
He was in a wheelchair and we saw their concert in Milton Keynes and it allowed me to be closer than the performance than I should have been allowed to be. For this I will forever be thankful of my friend who I lost in 2016. Thinking of you Scott.
Have loved these guys from the beginning. You can be dancing around the room one minute and the next feel like your heart is breaking with their wonderful lyrics. Utter perfection. Thanks for all the wonderful memories. God bless. Keep safe x
After this release in 86 I started going to nightclubs in blue jeans and white tshirt trying to replicate Andy Bell dance moves 😁 such good times , loved 80’s nightclubs !
Gross
I was lucky enough to be old enough when Erasure came into their prime. In the back of my parents car. Loving every single song they released. I will always be angry that they never became as big as others though. Sublime songs that deserve more attention.
the inheritance of yazoo weighed too heavy
They were HUGE in the UK in the late 80s and early 90s. Stadium tours and loads of cd sales. They did alright
@@joshbarnes5886 and what was wrong with that? 😊
I love this video
I love them 😍
"Ohhh sometimes, the truth is harder than the pain inside. Ohhh sometimes, it's the broken heart that decides" - powerful line
The best era in music, the best era in pretty much anything. The 80s produces amazing memories and amazing music, hence the music that we listen to now from the 80s brings up all of those amazing memories. Saw them in concert once at the NY Pier. One of the best concerts to be at, outside, they put on an amazing show and the music, it was one big dance party, everyone loved it and you made friends just from listening to the same beautiful music. Completely the best times to be a teen and young adult.
Nice try
You should get out there.
Did coke with Andy in Dallas eons ago after one of their concerts. Very nice down to earth guy!
There’s something unassuming about Andy Bell that makes him a great performer. It’s only recently that I’ve realized how great a lot of Erasure’s tracks were.
How it came you havent realized it at the '80s
@@Denis-cp2zq I did with Who Needs Love Like That, but the rest, as with a lot of music, was just part of the background.
I could pick my favourite 5 today
And I'll have another favourite 5 tomorrow..
I LOVE this song!!! It makes me tingle with joy. I love Erasure...I love Andy! Such a talented team!
Almost all 80's music produces a felling of something I would call happiness. Great artist came to light those years.
Fantastic arrangement by Vince & Andy’s magical voice make this a stand out 1980’s song….not to mention Andy being a brilliant performer, particularly in this video.
80s a decade of immortal music with so many iconic bands!
80s ...the golden era for music and cinema...
Vince Clarke is a legendary musician!
Saw him being interviewed on an Irish TV show. He is such a lovely man. Showing a large humility and very humble. Endearing.
Their music is timeless and will go on forever!! I wish I was back in those years how time flies!! Vince and Andy you're legends!! ♥️♥️♥️
100% love for this amazing band! Perfect vocals from Andy and genius music from Vince. What a pairing 💕💕
Oggi l'ho fatta sentire a mia nipote di 15 anni , mi ha detto " zio che bella musica che avevate"
80’s music speaks volumes to those of us born in that time frame! We were uninhabited by the world wide world of internet! We lived life according to our neighborhood not according to te world!
good point
Andy and Vince were such a good duo. They both complemented each other perfectly. Vince was the shy creative one whilst Andy was the flamboyant, extrovert front man.
The band is still together! :-D
And you're telling who exactly???? People that can't see them????
@@samooskhka Its called expressing an opinion, so go crawl back under your bridge and leave the conversation to real adults.

At gig in Glasgow tonight still as good as ever. RESPECT one of the best songs they'll always be remembered by. Xx
This is the one and only true music. Perfect.
this song had some serious competition when it came out. could have been number one easily
Friggin' brilliant. God, I miss the 80's!
Brings back precious memories as a teenager ( turned 17 in '80) & walking into the British pubs & clubs to have these wonderful tunes blasting at us 😍😍 ...so blessed to have been a true '80's girl... who wouldn't want their youth to be filled with such magical sounds? ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I've been on an Erasure buzz recently. I don't know how many times I've listened to this tune in the last few days. I love it. I was 4 when it was released. I remember hearing it on the radio all the time back then :) ... And on a side note I googled Vince Clarke today and coincidentally his birthday was yesterday. Happy Birthday Vince :)
I wasnt even born back then, my mum made sure we knew what proper music is, one thing i will always be grateful to her for!
Hi Sarah, You're beautiful 🤗💜
@@jimmorrison3756 Thank you :)
@@kirstiewilkes2052That's great to hear :)
I can remember driving to a club in "The City" (aka Manhattan) with my friend Mario in passenger seat in my Dad's Chevy Impala. Had to be mid-1980s. The club was probably The World or The Limelight. Probably not CBGBs, not that that was bad, just a different scene/music/crowd, knowwhatImean? This song was on LIR that summer, brings it all back. :-)
Happy New Year dear Andy and your band. !!!. May your holidays with a nice surprises and happiness. I really love your love songs. Thanks😮❤
I love Andy Bells style of dancing ❤️
😂That’s what I thought, too. Wish I could move that way in 2024…🙈
one of the best bands going ... well talanted both of them ❤❤❤
Me too! ❤
Sadly only gay men can get away with dancing like that, my wife dies a little inside when i try! 😂
@@margotishrn lolol
I remember spending 6 weeks in hospital for major heart surgery and then coming home and my mum had the album in the car. I've loved it ever since!!!
Aww Erasure probably got your Mom through a hard time too, while she worried about you!
Stacey Curtis Hope your ok now Stacey. I've got health issues .But music puts some strength in my soul x
Your mom seems to be one heck of a Lady!:)
cool
Hope all is well
When I was young, I learned the dance move from Andy and danced to all their songs. I remembered I always asked DJs to play Erasure songs when I hit the club and bar. I am so glad that Erasure is such an important part of my life. It has been 30 yrs for now and keeps going till I die.
I love this Erasure song Somtimes Andy bell and Vince Clarke are so talented Wonderful Brilliant Amazing song with the Wonderful vocals of Andy Bell from a 61 years young Irishman fan from Dublin Ireland ❤️ 😊😊
Back when things were easier. And great tunes flowed like 🍷
I'm lost in the 80s !!!how many more.?!!!❤️✌️😜
Absolutely, please bring me back.
Yo también me quedé anclado ahí. Los 80 fue la mejor década 😢
I so love this. Will always take me back to when I started going out to pubs at 16, way way back in distant but fantastic 1986. Erasure were part of the wonderful 80s I was lucky to grow up in.
One of the best songs ever made
When the world was a better place. Love this song
Was it? With AIDS creeping up, my idea of better times is different
The world was a better place, I agree, but AIDS, it was an everyday realizty for me living in NYC in the 1980s and SF int he 90s. But I know exactly what yu mean.
In love this song too. 2022.////....
The world is a terrible mess today world bring back the 1980s .
Rampant inflation, Russian agression in Eastern Europe, an unknown infection sweeping through the gay community. Seems pretty familiar
Gorgeous group. I had the gift and grace to watch em perform live.. Those were the days. Proudly so
So have I as has all of there adoring fans
@@ianfielding6840 ok
Not a big Erasure fan, but I will admit I like some of their songs. This song is super catchy!!! 😊

LIKE A BAT OUT OF HELL!!!

I just love EIGHTH DAY by HAZEL O'CONNOR!!!
You cannot beat the 80's 👊
A Little Respect is probably my favourite of theirs. This and Oh L'Amour are infectiously catchy.
"Chains of Love" is my favorite song by them.
Now That’s What I Call Music! 9 bought me here!!!
Oh I'm still listening in 2024 and still loving it!!!!!!!! Better than all the shite these days!!!
One of the best bands to come out of the 80's. Their music is still as good today as it was back then.
Three flops in and then they dropped the bomb. An absolute monster.
The 80’s were magic! Love that song! All my youth!
Every time I hear Erasure, I can imagine my Mum in the kitchen washing up, listening to them and gently dancing 😊
Imagine a world without Erasure?
Bite Your Tongue !
Just love all this stuff: Heaven nightclub, Sunday night at the Gardens (above Derry & Toms), fabulous times and so lucky to be of that age. I'm 77 now but remember this as if was yesterday - wonderful era😘
Oops...78 now😢
Erasure.... freakin' phenominal band.. so awesome, great music
I love this song. It still sounds incredible in 2023. When music was at its finest 😊
It Does And In 2024 ❤❤❤
The trumpet is some "late jazz style". And I like it.
I wish I could have grown up in the 70s 80s and 90s to experience the golden years of music. I Listen to some of today’s music but I just don’t think it has a lasting impact like this does.
So cool that Andy can keep in time with the beats when he dances :).
Found this song cuz it was playing at 1:30 in the morning at the gas station and something about how it echoed and the time of night made it the most unexpected ethereal experience
The song that when my hubby and myself got together over 30 years ago. This song has so many happy memories that I am so glad that we did as in the song. Such a really beautiful song that it has so much relevance especially today. Thank you guys Ax

I always had a real soft spot for Erasure in the 80's and early 90's. They just made straight up f***ing sh1t hot Pop music. I was just entering my teens when this was released. I loved it then, and i love it now. Erasure really were a fantastic band. I used to copy Andy's dance moves from this video at community discos. Brilliant music, brilliant song, brilliant band.
The band Vince finally settled in, such fantastic credentials
Saw Eurasure at a dance party held in Sydney in the 80s at a shipping terminal, the floor moved so much I was sure the floor would collapse. Happy memories
