I love this song. I think its refreshing when Erasure shows their depth. Erasure has certainly had a long string of great pop songs but it's the width of that ability that keeps their fans so interested.

True Love Wars is swell ! A MASTERPIECE !First class technopop.ERASURE+KEVORKIAN+THOMAS FEHLMANN(ORB)= DANCE MUSIC WILL NEVER DIE !!!

A great single, showing a more tender, reflective side of Erasure's music and lyrics. For my money, the b-side Omni Remix of "True Love Wars" alone is worth the price of the import. Slammin' hard techno.

Although I am a HUGE Erasure fan, I thought that this single was a little weak. The best track on this cd is the b-side "True Love Wars", a very catchy tune that reminds me alot of their work on the I say I say I say album. It is wonderful in every sense of the word, and after hearing it, you will be humming it all day long. The "Stay with me" mixes are okay at best, but I prefer Erasure when they are more upbeat and happy, rather than melancholy.

Part 1 is CDMUTE174, which includes Stay with Me and True Love Wars. Stay With Me is a nice song, and the "basic mix" is just that, a bit of an extension on the original. True Love Wars is basically the intro to Erasure's Self-Titled (I Guess I'm into Feeling) but extended into song-length. While it's a good tune, you'll feel a bit cheated if you already own Self-Titled. Then there's the Omni mix which is an ambient version by Thomas Fehlmann, but it's a bit *too* ambient and you can barely even hear the original tune in there.

Part 2 - LCDMUTE174 (the mixes) is better, containing the Flow mix, NY mix, Guitar Mix, and Castaway Dub. Get it if you can, although it's probably out of print.
