Memorabilia

“Memorabilia” is a song by Soft Cell, first released on their debut 1981 singles Memorabilia and A Man Can Get Lost.
The main inspiration were New York disco records with hard pulsating beat which Marc Almond used to hear during his work time at the Warehouse club in Leeds. He also wanted a song where repetitive instrumental would let him improvise with vocals.
