Be Near Me Lyrics
Telling the girl of your dreams, 'never leave me' !
Very good!
Very good!
This song's meanings are pretty obvious in the lyrics. However the true beauty of the song is in the execution and the very catchy synth hook. One of ABC's & the 80's best, I'd have to say. =)
Reminiscing about the time this song came out. :) Martin Fry is a great vocalist.
Only three comments for one of the timeless staples of the 80's alternative synth pop genius. ABC is highly underrated. Fry's vocals are perfect, the hook is as well. This song was in the head of every teen boy and the lips of every teen girl (because the boys were too scared to be caught singing out loud) in the mid 80s. We listened to this until the cassette tape got caught in the machine. Then CD's came out, thankfully. Many memories of cruising around the mall (#Coronado) and grabbing an orange julius and wondering if the house party you planned to attend that night would have a keg. Wondering if the girl you like will be there. Wondering if you realize at the time, that you were living the dream, living a john hughes flick. "All my dreams came true that night." What better message, how better to state what all humans want: for their lover to be near them.
