I am looking for the title and artist or better yet, the rest of the lyrics of the song which has the chorus : Unzip.....Unzip Unzip Unzip Unzip If you've heard this song, you'll know it. Bart Thielges

This is ABC. The song is called "Unzip" (surprise!!), and it is from "Beauty Stab," which is their most recent album (I think... what do I know since Trouser Press ceased publication?). It's the album where ABC tries to use "real" instruments and gets away from heavy orchestration. Rich Rosen erupted at me when I said so last year, but I liked the results, with only a few reservations. ----- Ken Rossen ihnp4!uiucdcs!rossen ihnp4!uiucdcs!ccvaxa!rossen

I like ABC's "Beauty Stab" too, but it's pretty ordinary compared with
their first album, "The Lexicon Of Love". The first album was an excellent
and unique combination of 80's "new wave"/rock with funk, but on the second
album, the funk element is almost totally absent ("Unzip" is probably the
only song where it's really noticeable), making "Beauty Stab" more or less
an ordinary 80's "new wave"/rock album. However, they have done a good
job of it, and I give them credit for trying something different. In fact,
the change really surprised me because they had a successful formula, and
there wasn't much variation in style between the different songs on "The Lexicon
Of Love", so I wondered if they could do anything different.

I rather like that song, but I can't remember all the lyrics. The song is, of course, Unzip. -- "She's vegetarian Peter Merchant except when it comes to sex" -- ABC
