Chaka Demus and Pliers: Tease Me

(Copied across from another blog I'm closing down - originally posted 14 February 2017)


Love Heart songs: No.2

Well it is Valentine's Day so it seems a good time to dig out a second Love Heart song.

This time it's Tease Me by reggae duo Chaka Demus and Pliers* (or John Taylor and Everton Bonner when they're not hiding behind pseudonyms.)

With romantic lyrics like:
"I will never forget
the first time we kissed
It's like striking gold
Catching a big fish"

It got to number three in July 1993.

I don't know which one is Mr Demus and which one is Mr Pliers though.




* Wikipedia tells me that before teaming up with Demus, Pliers was in a duo with someone called Pincers. I don't care if it's not true.

(If you care - Love Heart Song number one was Blue Eyes by The Wedding Present)
