Stella
Yello
℗ 1985 Mercury Records 822 820
℗ 1985 281002
Yes, Stella is the album that includes Yello's biggest hit, "Oh Yeah." It's also their best single LP, an excellent production throughout by Boris Blank, from the theatric instrumentals "Stalakdrama" and "Ciel Ouvert" to the frenetic pitched percussion on "Let Me Cry." As well, Dieter Meier proves he's at his best vocally, whether it's the seamy side of life on "Desert Inn" or an exaggerated leer for "Koladi-ola." Both hit their peak on the same album, and Stella is a complete joy for fans of the vocal or production side of the group. — John Bush. |

Vicious Games
(Dieter Meier & Boris Blank)
I never knew how much I loved you I never knew how much I care so I play Vicious games vicious games with different names different names Vicious games vicious games with different names different names. I was afraid to go on with it afraid to see so I closed my eyes. Vicious games vicious games with different names different names. I never knew how much I loved you I never knew how much I care I just play Vicious games vicious games with different names different names. . . . Now that you're gone and you have left me I had to learn I had to learn how much it hurts To play those vicious games. Vicious games vicious games with different names different names. . . . Vicious games vicious games with different names different names.
Domingo
(Dieter Meier & Boris Blank)
We are here In this holy cave today To celebrate The reincarnation Of Domingo de Santa Clara The man who convinced us That there is no Lord For His name is Buddha, Allah, Shiva, Jahve Outside our bodies We are God 'Cause only we can create the idea Of His existence in our holy brains Let us pray to ourselves and our spirits! Domingo you show me just nothing Like no one before Domingo you show me just nothing Like no one before Domingo you show me just nothing Like no one before Domingo you show me just nothing Like no one before Domingo of Santa Clara You made us believe That you are no phantom When without The slightest spot of a thousand nations You sprayed your blood of Domingo We all know Domingo of Santa Clara Will be born today, tomorrow, and the day after Billions of times 'Til the end of the Universe Here with a smile on his face As the rest of our species watches The catastrophe Domingo you show me just nothing Like no one before Domingo you show me just nothing Like no one before Domingo you show me just nothing Like no one before
Let Me Cry
(Dieter Meier & Boris Blank)
Sunday night I was riding on the a train Reading the newspaper A woman was trying to convince a man That she hadn't done it All these years I haven't seen you Love is still the same Now you must believe me Now I play no game I know I loved you When I left you Couldn't tell you why Too sad today Too sad for tears Let me cry You only just caught that train Breathless And then, you smiled at me We left, on canal street, and uh... Had a drink at... Remember the name of the place? All these years I haven't seen you Love is still the same Now you must believe me Now I play no games I know I loved you When I left you Couldn't tell you why Too sad today Too sad for tears Let me cry Yes, I do remember The name of the place Three roses
