Alexander O’Neal – “A Broken Heart Can Mend (Touchsoul Rework)”
We’re big fans of someone knowing how to breathe new life into a classic soul track. UK producer Touchsoul is definitely doing it right with this rework/edit of “A Broken Heart Can Mend“ by soul and R&B don Alexander O’Neal. No matter when you were born, it’s pretty safe to say that you’ve heard this track at some point in your life. His self titled debut album is quintessential listening for all fans of soul and R&B. Touchsoul bumps up the tempo ever-so-slightly and brings in potent percussion to add some extra oomph to the soulful melody. Then Alexander’s vocals float into the frame to make you weak at the knees. Check it out this 80’s tinged edit after the jump.
