Leo Sayer

Polished 1983 soft rock with a melancholic edge. Sayer's signature falsetto navigates lonely cityscapes, secret affairs, and early-digital synth textures.

It's Leo Sayer's 'night-time in the city' record, full of sleek synths and lonely hearts.

A sophisticated, nocturnal wistfulness that trades disco energy for early-80s introspection.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the nocturnal synth textures to the bright, morning-evoking chorus of 'Paris Dies in the Morning'.
The desperate, high-register vocal delivery during the bridge of 'Til You Let Your Heart Win'.
The rhythmic, slightly tropical bounce of the Bruce Cockburn cover 'Wondering Where the Lions Are' breaking the album's moodier tension.
