We've done a different take on it but with Alice on backing vocals because we couldn't not use her ad libs, they're just too good. For the past three decades, Bananarama’s Sara Dallin and Keren Woodward have been one of pop’s most influential and revered groups. A disrupted 2020 tour schedule gave them an opportunity to turn an EP into a sleek and cohesive 11-track album. When we were all in lockdown, there were a lot of conversations happening to do with inclusivity, diversity and gender and racial equality," Sara explains. The album was originally conceived as an EP; however, following the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown beginning, the group began working towards creating a full album.

My 'favourite ' songs are Favourite, Masquerade, Velvet Lies , Stay Wild and Running with the Night.

Bananarama celebrate their 40th anniversary with a brand new studio album, Masquerade and produced by the inimitable Ian Masterson.

From a ground-breaking performance at The Brits, to sold-out world tours, party games with George Michael, hanging out with Andy Warhol in New York, to playing Glastonbury last year- Bananarama’s DIY-style and attitude inspired a generation, obliterating all previous notions of what a girl band was or could be.

Bananarama have always had a way with a remake but Keren says it was especially gratifying to cover a song that "is just so personal to us".The duo reunited with producer Ian Masterson, with whom they also worked on 2019's In Stereo – their highest-charting album since the late '80s – and 2009's Viva, home to the thumping club hit 'Love Comes'. Me encantan "Masquerade", "Favourite", "Running with the night", "Stay Wild", "Velvet líes" y "Forever Young". Les paroles de « Forever young » sont fortes et si nostalgiques pour un fan qui les aime de longue date.

A limited edition deluxe of the album MASQUERADE is out now in North America on double blue and silver vinyl including 6 full length remixes*. Shutting myself away and coming up with ideas and then telling a story in less than 4 minutes, it really is quite an art”, says Dallin. The single was added to the B-List of the BBC Radio 2 playlist and made 'Single of the Week' upon release, before moving onto the A-List the following week. REALLY SAYING SOMETHING is the story of two friends who continue to pursue their dreams their way – and have a great time doing it.
