Erasure Red Button Special!

Erasure duo Vince Clarke and Andy Bell take time out from their busy touring schedule to chat to Sara Cox about their 80s, plus their new album and tour. Respect!

Erasure duo Vince Clarke and Andy Bell take time out from their very busy schedule to chat to Sara Cox about their 80s.

The duo have been making perfect polished pop music for over 30 years and earnt nine Top 20 hits in the 80s including 'A Little Respect', 'Sometimes', and 'Ship Of Fools'. They have sold over 25 million albums worldwide, and their new album 'World Be Gone' is out now. The new single 'Love You To The Sky' is a celebration of their participation in the gay rights movement in the 1980s. Andy Bell was one of the first openly gay pop stars of the 1980s. Vince and Andy are the special guests on Robbie Williams' tour right now. It's time to reminisce about rubber leotards!

The Megamix lands in 1986 and Sara has videos from Run DMC, The Bangles, Kate Bush, Duran Duran, Irene Cara...and many, many more!
