Like some New Romantic looking for the TV Snow...
It seems so sentimental, why should I care
Haunting notes, pizzicato strings, the rhythmn is calling
We're building fires that will burn until morning
Stay in time with the rhythmn and rhyme
Don't say I know what you're thinking, It's plain to see
One man on a lonely platform, one case sitting by his side.
Read a book and write a letter, Mother, things are getting better
Remember long ago when all the kids were
You better watch out, you better beware

All by Visage? Wow, it takes guts to dress like you did without getting a steelcap boot to the head. I remember The Face mag had Blue Rondo on the cover in 81 and the expose on new romantics movement. I had wanted to dress like spandau ballet's martin kemp...
Holy crap I hadn't thought of Ultravox in about 20 years.
I'm old.
enough about the dress, here's my Top Seven:
1. Chant No. 1 - Spandau Ballet
2. Tears are not enough - ABC
3. Girls on film - Duran Duran
4. Sleepwalk - Ultravox
5. Underpass - John Foxx
6. Reward - Teardrop Explodes
7. Ay Ay Ay Moosey - Modern Romance
8. Gentlemen Take Polaroids - Japan
And you had hair back then!
Juls, I have to say, that's a pretty damn good list too.
I wanted to be more esoteric and include Ronny, Gina X, Shock, Our Daughters Wedding and Fashion, but I couldn't find videos.
To Have And Have Not by Ronny is such a great track. Produced by Midge Ure too. I'm going to do a Midge Ure Lunch Hour Veg next week :)
