Feargal Sharkey - You Little Thief Lyrics. You little thief You let me love you You saw me stumbling You watched me fall You left me broken Shattered and bleeding But there's no hard.
'Never Never' is the title of the only single released by the Vince Clarke project, The Assembly, in 1983.

The song peaked at number four in the UK Singles Chart and stayed on the chart for ten weeks. The music video for 'Never Never' featured on the video version of Now 1 but the song itself did not appear on the album version.
The song was featured in the 2006 video gameGrand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories on the in-game radio station, Emotion 98.3.
