notes
On this Release-era synth-pop track, a stacked-saw lead doubles the vocal melody in the choruses. Built from 2 saw -7 through a LP 24 dB/oct filter (slow filter opening across the phrase), it sits in the mix true to the period's Nord Lead and early softsynths kept deliberately in the background of Johnny Marr's guitars-driven productions.
