That&#8217;s hardly an  easy song to take on, but Munroe does a fine job  reinterpreting this  &#8217;80s pop classic.<\/p>\n<p>In an email to fans today, Munroe sheds a bit of  light on his  sudden\u00a0absence. &#8220;There were some things that needed  dealing with and  that dealing is almost done. I was intentionally not  releasing any new  solo material during that period, but that period is  about to end. The  story continues and so will the music. I hope you  enjoy this small  taste of what is to come. Don&#8217;t look away.
