By Stacey Lynn Jan 7, 2021 A huge song from 1990 where the singer is in a relationship where he feels words are unnecessary and can even be harmful, so he prefers to enjoy the relationship in silence. Carla Bruni covered this song,and said, "What I like very much about the song is the lyrics. They are quite dark, but they're made stronger because, nowadays, noise is everywhere. We need silence. Silence is healing." Martin, Fletch, and lead singer Dave are an English trio that actually started as a duo with a different singer. Fletch says his buddy roped him into forming “No Romance in China” a total rip off of The Cure.
