Can anyone identify whos the artist of this song:
Only a silence, only a whisper etc../ the male vocal sounds like robert smith...

Also whats the name nw band who originally sang no more i love you's...

For generous people out there, i very much like to hear other songs of White China (smiles and jokes) and Colors (nevermind)...would it be okay to ask a few mp3s/pictures would be great...i just cant find one on the net! im quite disappointed..
Big thanks!

I don't know, The Lover Speaks*, and I'm not familiar with either but the mp3 board is the goto place for that request.

Mabuhay!

Just go to the "Obscure80's/MFV, CD-R's & MP3 trading" section. Lots of generous people there.

But don't hold your breath on the Colors' songs. Don't think anyone in this board can help with that Italo-Disco band.

Big thanks guys! im just really fascinated with that cure like song...i only heard it once and the dj didnt repeat the title/

I know Annie Lennox had a rendition of "No More I Love You's". I would like to say she was the original singer of it as I don't remember hearing any other renditions of it. You can find it on her Medusa CD... which also has a remake of The Blue Nile's song Downtown Lights. You will remember The Blue Nile get a lot of airtime on XB102 for their song "Stay"... which was also remade by Grace Pool. Having said all this, it looks like Medusa is a compilation of Annies cover songs... so there *may* in fact be another rendition of "No More I Love You's" out there by some NW group.

I am afraid I am not familiar with "Nevermind" by the Colors. I do like Smiles and Jokes though by White China. Let me see what I can dig up about them and that song. As to that Robert Smith-like song, if you have any more hints, I can have a go at it. Can you hum a few bars perhaps. [:D]

Hey dieffer,

Here is one from White China - Smiles and Jokes. Enjoy!

The original version of "No More 'I Love You's'" was the Lover Speaks. CD pops up from time to time.

I'm not sure what Robert Smith-sound-alike you are refering to, but check out the band the Essence -- many people confused them with the Cure.

FYI: It just so happens I recently ripped that 1986 self titled CD and have it in my collection. <a href="http://www.nwoutpost.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12894" target="blank">Here's a link</a> to the thread where that and another fairly well known track can be found. [;)]

the only part of the song i remember is "only a silence, only a whisper" i thought it was robert smith, are there any nw bands who sounds like robert smith? the vocal sounds like him...

Dieffer,

besides The Essence I think you should check out the bands The Glove and The Rescue as well.
