The Future Will Come
[edit]... that The Juan MacLean's album The Future Will Come was inspired by The Human League because of the paucity of other bands with male-female vocals?
5x expanded by Hinnk (talk). Self nominated at 03:43, 20 January 2014 (UTC).
5x expansion verified. New enough, long enough, well-referenced. Nominator has done an excellent job avoiding close paraphrasing.

IMO, the part about the robot imagery or the inspiration from science fiction sources would make a better hook. Yoninah (talk) 22:39, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
