It is titled Lost Again and it is from the '83 album _You Gotta Say Yes To Another Excess_ and you can hear it on the _Essential Yello_ compilation. It is a great song, I am listening to it now. This compilation really should be heard by anyone unfamiliar with Yello. It is pop music but with an unusual electro edge. I am really amazed by what these guys were doing in the early eighties- nobody else was using synths and samplers to such extreme levels composition. They were (are?) a lot like a contemporary Perrey & Kingsley. Steve
