NEVER SAY NEVER
“Never Say Never” is a 1982 song by the new wave band Romeo Void. One of their best-known songs, “Never Say Never” was a favorite on early MTV, featuring a music video filmed in black and white using film noir motifs. The song is driven by a throbbing, funky bassline and punctuated by jagged guitar and saxophone, incorporating post-punk influences. (More from Wikipedia)
The name Romeo Void might not ring a bell, but you more than likely remember the lyric “I might like you better if we slept together” from their 1981 hit “Never Say Never”. However, there is a lot more to this band – and to “Never Say Never” for that matter – than that salacious lyric.
Romeo Void released three albums in all; “Never Say Never” comes from the second album, Benefactor.
