There are two Soft Cell songs that I find very difficult to locate:
One is called "It's A Mug's Game" (Great song!) and the other one I don't know the name but he's in a supermarket and everything is telling him "Buy More Now!" and he's saying "But I only need one! I don't need so many!"

Can anyone help me locate these?

Thanks! Danny

Both songs are on Soft Cell's 3CD 12" single compilation. I think "Mug's Game" is also a bonus track on the U.K. reissue of _The Art of Falling Apart_.

The name of the supermarket song--one of their best tracks,IMH(BC)O, is "Persuasion."

Hey thanks!
Any idea where I can locate "Persuasion"? Is it on a particular album?

I don't think "Persuasion" is on any CD but the 12" collection, but there are so many Soft Cell comps and reissues that I'm not entirely certain. I believe it was originally the B-side of "Memorabilia."
