    "Something About You" is a timeless pop classic that captivated audiences upon its debut in 1985 by the British band Level 42, featuring a remarkable fusion of synth-pop, jazz, and funk elements. Mark King, the lead singer, delivers soulful vocals while effortlessly showcasing his unparalleled skill with the bass guitar. The song's irresistible groove, catchy melodies, and heartfelt lyrics combine to create a euphonic masterpiece that has stood the test of time and continues to bewitch listeners worldwide to this day.

    Uma das melhores músicas da década de 1980, e ver Mark King cantar e estourar aquele baixo com todas aquelas linhas legais enquanto canta. Como outros aqui notaram, não é uma tarefa fácil. E ele consegue isso sem esforço. Lembro-me de quando isso foi um sucesso. O sol brilhava muito mais forte naquela época.

I was 12yo and then when i discovered their first albums i was astonished by their funky-fusion instrumental roots... they are my favourite all-time band and imho the most underrated talents in music history. Long live Level42
