Number 125: Bill Nelson - Because Of You (Popstand Remix)

Bill Nelson has had a long and distinguished musical career, stretching all the way back to the early 70s. Whether solo or in bands, his albums and singles were consistently innovative and successful. In the 80s, he adapted to the new electronic sound, working with artists like Gary Numan and A Flock Of Seagulls. In 1986, he released the experimental album Getting The Holy Ghost Across, which was an eclectic mixture of pop, New Wave, rock, and even classical elements. "Because Of You" is a great song in its album form, but I like the "Popstand Remix" even better. It's eight minutes long, but if it were 18 minutes instead I still wouldn't tire of it. Enjoy!
