"Valerie" by Ra Ra Riot

 


Maybe you don't feel that the 1982 synth pop single "Valerie" from Birmingham, UK blue eyed soul artist Steve Winwood slaps so friggin' hard.

You're wrong.  It absolutely does.

Found a cover that does this one justice.  Syracuse, New York baroque pop band Ra Ra Riot keep the upbeat synths intact, and throw in a violin for good measure.
