It was released as the album's second single on 28 June 1985 through #VertigoRecords.

The song features a guest appearance by #Sting, who sings the signature #falsetto introduction.

#JeanGrae - "Intro" (2008)
For a brief moment there, Jean seemed poised to be crowned queen of the world - or, at least queen of NY's underground #hiphop community. It never really happened, though not for lack of quality: I reckon her Jeanius album recorded w/ producer #9thWonder to be one of best #rap albums of the noughties. The #falsetto disco coo in that magical #Syreeta sample is dreamy, but it's Jean herself who lights this one ON FIRE
"Roll your windows down / And turn the woofers up / New giddy city get that liquor in your tinted cups / Picture me kicking this pretty then remember the words"

#LutherVandross - "Take You Out" (2001)
I don't always love this man's material, but I'll never fail to give props to his velvet tenor - especially when it's this song. Plus he's improvising with a little #falsetto at the end. For once, #JayZ and I agree: this is late-life Luther greatness.

The keen ears at @blogamf hipped me to #CrammedDiscs’ 2022 release of this lost 1987 album by Congolese-born/Belgian-raised #MauricePotoDoudongo. It's future forward electro-funk, ala #ZazouBiyake - or #Prince, fr christs sake! - but steeped in the rhythms and textures of #CongoleseRumba and #Soukous. Rich, joyful, and really quite beautiful, this one gets me moving and still sounds relevant today.

With the 2025 #NBA season now officially over and done with, how's a desperate, basketball-addicted fanboy supposed to get by? Me, I always ask in my best #falsetto: What Would #CheechAndChong Say?

You might not, by I've a soft spot for #AfghanWhigs, esp. back when #GregDulli & co. gave us a bleeding-heart, gossamer #falsetto version of "Lost In The Supermarket" by The Only Band That Matters, #TheClash. I'm sure #JoeStrummer would've approved.

#NowPlaying #FalsettoFriday #RootsReggae
#TheCongos' Heart Of The Congos LP is often considered the crown jewel of #LeePerry's Black Ark productions, and for me it was #CedricMyton's #falsetto vocals that put these guys on a spiritual plane all their own. This cut has those ancient Nyabinghi winds blowing through it - long may they reverberate.
(Music writer #BobMack first turned me on to the Congos with his brilliant Lee Perry overview in #GrandRoyal magazine in the early 90s - still worth re-reading today. RIP Bob.)

A stone classic is what it is: #JuniorMurvin's "Police & Thieves" from 1976. The beautiful #CurtisMayfield vocal influence, that delicate #LeePerry production, and those searing lyrics that still ring true today

Tears For Fears – Pale Shelter

Seems to be a well-known album in some underground scenes, but I just found #Fishmans #LongSeason. And wow, I like it.
It's basically a single 35 minute track. It was described as being "dream like" / #psychedelic which I think fits quite well. The singer, who unfortunately passed away already, uses #Falsetto which adds another unique touch. It's from 1996.

I basically found them via https://www.reddit.com/r/fishmans/comments/14x9nqo/me_and_some_friends_went_to_the_long_season/ which is an interesting story :)

It's my 50th birthday today. I'm releasing an album of new music: "The False Voice is tunes for concertina and falsetto singer. Melodies set against instrumental drones and varied textures conjure a hopeful spirit and thoughts of the forest and its creatures in the westernmost region of Washington State, USA."

"In a vocal fry register," explains Elemans, "your vocal folds are mostly slack, so they're #thick and #heavy, and they #vibrate at their #lowest #frequencies. And in the #falsetto #register, they're stretched very long and the #tension is very high. And this leads to the #highest frequencies."
