Blancmange - "The Day Before You Came" (Extended) - A Myleslandia Video Mix!

Blancmange - "The Day Before You Came" (Extended) - A Myleslandia Video Mix by Myles Matisse! The original version of "The Day Before You Came" is on Blancmange's album "Mange Tout". "What a song and video. The way Neil talks the song is so unique and the music instantly reminded me of ABBA. Seeing Agnetha Faltskog from ABBA in the video was a nice surprise. Once I found out ABBA wrote and performed the song originally, it all made sense. Blancmange's take on the song stands out to me and I almost thought it would've been cool if Neil had duetted with Agnetha on the song although it's cool that she agreed to be in the video because it gives it all an added layer of class and pop culture. I took the extended version of the song and the original music video and crafted a cool "Myleslandia Video Mix.
