I think I must have heard them in their later Goth sort of stage. David Vanian has a good baritone but shewy - they look so different now! Guess we all do!! Must have heard
Phantasmagoria quite a bit because some of those spring to mind. I always thought "Eloise" was a perfectly constructed pop song (I know it's Barry Ryan's) - even when I didn't really have much to compare it to and even although I can't say I love the song - I admire it, I suppose you might say.
Their rendition is pretty infectious.
