Amanda Lear – Follow Me (1979)

Amanda Lear provided the song lyrics herself, like on every Sweet Revenge track, and music was composed by Anthony Monn, her long-time producer and collaborator. Musically, “Follow Me” showcased mainstream disco sound, popular in the second half of the 1970s. However, it contained symphonic elements and revealed inspiration of innovatory work of German band Kraftwerk. Lyrically, the song tells about seduction. It was the first out of five Sweet Revenge tracks, that made a compact whole on the album, a conceptual suite telling a story about a girl being tempted by a Devil.
