Do you like synth pop?

The PERFECT example of good synth pop is Kim Wilde`s "The second time" dancing jig

No.
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

There`s a song called "State farm" by Yazoo, the song itself isn`t that good, but the madhouse remix is brilliant...

Well I see her pictures on a lot of solo CDs and I think "Could that be the kind of hefty chick in Yazoo?). She looks completely different and frankly, hot. I mean, I'm sure she nice and stuff, but she wasn't a looker back then.

Agree on the voice. I love the fact that "Don't Go" and "Siutation" are both dance and alternative and fit in both genres so nicely. Awesome songs.

Really....I vaguely remember an Allison Moyet mention in either "French and Saunders" or "Vicar Of Dibley".

Absolutely, when you think of singers like Alison Moyet, Martha Wash and Helen Terry, you know it`s not their voices that keeps them from getting the recognition they deserve...
