Erasure — Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me) EP

Bouncy and bright as usual, Andy Bell and Vince Clarke dole out three versions of the single track "Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me) " with the Extended Mix supplying some extra bass to wiggle to and that wooshing sound from the club scenes in Queer As Folk. These are followed up by a bunch of covers, including The Ronette's "Walking In The Rain," a love tune that is still naive without getting campy, and a new mix of The Three Degrees' "When Will I See You Again." The last track is a decent enough acoustic version of Elvis's "Can't Help Falling In Love." Since there aren't as many tracks as they've been putting on recent EPs, it’s cool they included a video for their take on Peter Gabriel's "Solsbury Hill" to boost the value quotient.
