There's something about "Something About You" by Level 42 that's hard to pinpoint that make me look forward to hearing it again and again.
Could be the amazing bass line.
Those epic falsettos and the harmonies.
Or perhaps the delicious chorus.
Can't forget about that surreal video, with the lead singer playing the Vaudeville clown in the engaging video.
In fact, it was all of those aspects and more: "Something About You" is simply a perfect pop song with a little R &B and synth tossed in. All the right hooks in all the right places.
All those little things that combine together to make me appreciate the whole of the song.

The tune still transports me back to when Dad used to drive me home for lunch back in Grade 11. The great ones will do that to you, take us back upon hearing the first note.
Pure nostalgia.
Fave lyrics:
"These changing years, they add to your confusion
Oh and you need to hear the time that told the truth"
Songs that bring you back to the past are great, and while I like the song it just brings me back to the 80's, which is incredible in itself.
