A Little Respect For Tainted Love

My UK blogger pal Mike Atkinson, AKA Troubled Diva, has really been making a name for himself as a music journalist. Head over and check out his interview with the rarely heard from Vince Clarke of Erasure, in which Clarke talks about his "monogamous loyalty" to singer Andy Bell and what it's like to be one of the few surviving '80s synth-pop acts. And speaking of surviving '80s synth-pop acts, Troubled Diva also has a great interview with Marc Almond, formerly of Soft Cell, who talks about his new album and his recovery from his devastating motorcycle accident. Interesting stuff!
