🇬🇧 Soft Cell "What!" – 1982
A synth-driven reinterpretation of the classic soul track, transformed into sleek early-80s electronic pop. The arrangement replaces the original’s live-band warmth with crisp drum machines, pulsing synth bass, and bright melodic hooks while retaining the song’s emotional core.
Marc Almond delivers the vocal with theatrical urgency...#softcell #marcalmond #daveball #synthpop #electronicmusic #newwave #vinyl #music #nowspinningonvinyl #nowspinning #nowlistening

🇬🇧 Soft Cell "*Happiness Not Included" – 2022
A late-career return that reconnects with the duo’s darker electronic roots while sounding contemporary and self-aware. Marc Almond’s voice carries a sense of experience and wear, adding depth to themes of disillusionment, desire, and societal decay...

Released today 42 years ago:
🇬🇧 Soft Cell "This Last Night in Sodom" – 1984
A darker and more confrontational record that marked the end of Soft Cell’s original 80s run. The album leans into harsher electronics, heavier rhythms, and a mood of decadence and disillusion where Marc Almond delivers vocals full of drama and intensity..

Music events on Sundays at 21:00 are ... not ideal. Marc Almond was amazing, though! I've never seen anyone performing on a stage with so much joy! #elevatefestival #marcalmond

Ils voulaient que je corresponde à une certaine image, que je sois d’une certaine manière. Ils disaient : tu vas devenir une star. Les gens ne demandent pas vraiment qui tu es ; ils demandent l’image que l’on a construite de toi. Et c’est un peu ce qui s’est passé : peu à peu, ils ont commencé à me transformer en image.

"Something's gotten hold of my heart" - Marc Almond featuring special guest star Gene Pitney.
Studio performance recorded three weeks ago. Marc sings in his leather jacket, sharp haircut, emotes heavily. And then Gene comes in, suit and no tie, sharp as a knife with a mop of grey hair.
A string section plays the piano break, Marc gives a cheeky wink to the camera, the two men subtly move together across the stage. Tremendously camp, and quite effective.

"Something's gotten hold of my heart" - Marc Almond featuring special guest star Gene Pitney
Second half of the video tonight, beginning with the bit where Gene's singing as a car drives through Monaco and into a swanky hotel, where he almost bumps into Cher.
Marc was reportedly upset about being "upstaged" by Gene two weeks ago, so of course the producer selects the bit of the song where Marc gets literally six lines on his own. Well done, Mr. Ciani.

Marc Almond Featuring Special Guest Star Gene Pitney perform "Something's gotten hold of my heart".
Like Gary Barlobe and Lulu, like George Michael and Elton John, Marc takes the first verse so he can get overshadowed by a much better vocalist. Could have seen more of that.

From this day in #TOTP history, "Something's gotten hold of my heart". Marc Almond Featuring Special Guest Star Gene Pitney perform the familiar song. Marc is great, Gene adds something more.
TOTP producer Paul Ciani wouldn't have the duo back again, apparently Marc was annoyed that he'd been upstaged by Gene. Sweetheart, consider it a badge of honour!
