Bananrama - He Was Really Sayin' Somethin'

'He Was Really Sayin' Somethin' is a soul song written by Mowtown Records songwriters Norman Whitfield, William "Mickey" Stevenson, and Edward Holland Jr. in 1964. The song is notable in both a 1964 version by American Motown girl group The Velvelettes, and a 1982 hit version (with the title altered to "Really Saying Something") by Bananarama who recorded it and released it as the first single from their debut album Deep Sea Skiving. Providing background vocals is Fun Boy Three, a male vocal trio who had a hit with Bananarama earlier in the year with another cover, 'Tain't What You do (It's The Way That You Do It)'.
The single became the second consecutive top-five hit for both Bananarama and Fun Boy Three, peaking at number five in the UK Singles Chart. It also received heavy play on the then-young MTV network in America. 'Really Saying Something' was both groups' second chart entry in Australia, peaking at number seventy-four. The B-side, 'Give Us Back Our Cheap Fares', has been issued on CD for the first time. It can be found on the 2007 UK reissue of Deep Sea Skiving as one of five bonus tracks.
