On their second album, Scritti Politti essentially was Green Gartside, who directed drummer Fred Maher, keyboardist David Gamson, and a multitude of studio musicians through a state-of-the-art, immaculately constructed set of catchy synth pop on Cupid & Psyche 85. The results are as impressive as Songs to Remember and produced the hit singles "Perfect Way" and "Wood Beez (Pray Like Aretha Franklin)."
I loved this song from the first time I laid ears on it. The voice, the clever lyric, the syncopation and particularly the backing vocals and harmonies. One of their more underrated songs - too much Perfect Way, not enough Wood Beez!
