Yello – Lost Again (Extended Version)

Number 47 in an occasional series of reviews of my favourite 80s 12″ records.

Released in 1983, originally on the album You Gotta Say Yes…, the single of Lost Again is a haunting melody, written by Boris Blank and Deiter Meyer. Seen by some as the band’s breakthrough record, although chart success would be another couple of years away. It features in the soundtrack of John Candy and Steve Martin’s seminal road movie, Planes Trains & Automobiles.
