Song #336: "Something About You"--Level 42 (1986)

Today's song is the first of three songs on the countdown from easily, in my humble opinion, one of the more underrated groups of the 1980's, Level 42.

The band had been around several years before finally making it big both at home in Great Britain and in the United States, thanks to this song, which peaked in the Top 10 here at the end of May, 1986, early in my tenure on WUPE-FM in Pittsfield, Massachusetts.

This was a very fun song to play on the radio, and it spent pretty much all of spring of that year in what we call heavy rotation. Interestingly, though, it is not Level 42's best charting song ever when taking worldwide into account. You would think it was, considering this is their only song that has been accepted by today's classic hits radio format some three decades later.

We'll pick up this subject at a later (much later?) date, but for now, enjoy "Something About You"!

P.S.--It's a crazy hot one here in the Mid-Atlantic today. Hydrate!  :) :)
