I used to own one of his tunes and remembered it a few days ago - so found it on Ebay and placed a bid.

Give Me Up finally sold for $34! Good grief, don't want it that badly.

But another to add to me wants list for the future.

Anyone else know it?

Give Me Up and his next single Into The Night were very popular in Japan in those days, and there were Japanese language versrions for each by Japanse pop artists

Would this be the track in which Stock Aitlen & Waterman got the idea for Bananarama's 'I Heard A Rumour' ?.

"Give Me Up" is indeed the song that bears a striking resemblance to "I Heard A Rumour" and speaking of PWL, I loved their remixes of Michael Fortunati's "Danse Avec Moi" and "Julia."
