It wasn’t as big a hit as it could have been but with “Cuts You Up” Peter Murphy got as close to a mainstream breakthrough in America as he ever would, and rightly so: with synth orchestration and a peppy full band pulse lifting his cryptic but engaging lyric of love and persistence, it became his signature song. As an album Deep explores a variety of strong moments, including a truly dramatic ballad in “Marlene Dietrich’s Favorite Poem,” the moody elegance of “A Strange Kind of Love” and the crisp, engaging drive of “Crystal Wrists.”
