I don't know how you guys feel but when I hear the start of this song, imaginary disco balls start rotating in my head. Just the perfect song to bring back the 80s disco feel.
@aliasxr Well the New Romantics were really a sub-genre of people and music that several new wave and synthpop bands fell into but several didn't. It definitely spurred the attitude of the movement though and got it rolling. Duran Duran were originally very New Romantic (Nick Rhodes in Planet Earth) but moved away from it whereas bands like The Fixx were never really new romantic. Visage DEFINITELY were. New romanticism was about music style but also fashion and attitudes to expression, love etc
@aliasxr All in all the subgenre-ing of new wave and synthpop is really only good for organizing things on your Ipod. All that truly matters is that new wave, synthpop and the genres that branched from them were creative, cerebral and expressive milestones in music history that were in a word, breathtaking. Its such a shame that several factors led to the downfall of the new movement, (particularly the emergence of grunge and the coming of popular hip hop). God I love my taste in music!
What is the girl going on about in the middle of the song? She just uses random phrases like "Desole" (sorry), "Valise" (suitcase) and "Deuxe yeux" (two eyes)....
@hobnob34 Synthesizers had long been in use by the early 80s, dating back to the early 70s by bands that today are referred to as "prog rock," but rarely used exclusively. In the mid-70s, exclusively synth-based music began to be made by Kraftwerk, Jean-Michel Jarre, Cerrone, Giorgio Moroder, etc, the latter two employing them to make disco music.
@hobnob34 In the proliferation of music subgenres that followed punk in the late 70s/early 80s, one was called technopop or synthpop at the time and was synth-based: Depeche Mode, OMD, Ultravox, etc. Visage was a late, dance-oriented offshoot of Ultravox. Though the term "new wave" is now used to mean something like "early 80s synthpop," it dates to the late 70s, when it was applied to the skinny-tied, sort of powerpop, 60s-influenced guitar bands that followed punk.
without the eccentricities of artistes such as Steve Strange / David Bowie / Boy George etc , music would be so flat, uncreative and monotone...just my opinion of course - but i'm right!!!!!! Long live the new romantics!
Steve Strange is the Singer. He was Part of the New Romantic Movement. That was around in the early 80's. He is also in David Bowie's 1980's Video Ashes To Ashes. And also Friends with Boy George
This record is so great it could drive you mad listening to it. Who cares if Steve can't sing and the lyrics are twaddle, it's a sonophiliavs paradise. DWWOOOOOO!!!
I just listened to ghosttown and I don't get it. Fade to Grey is the best song I've ever heard. Ghosttown was completely lack luster. Fade to grey is fricken perfect! I'm glad you like this one but i'm having so much trouble reconciling your love of the other. It just doesn't compute to me?

Sadly the video doesn't do the music justice. This song is exquisite! Can't believe that this song came out in '79. They were pioneers with this sound. Still one of the saddest and most beautiful songs I've heard to date.
May i put in two cents- i guess i qualify as a "young punk". I do agree that many are being narrow-minded and quite rude. Personally I love many artistic videos both modern and older. Remember not to generalize-I feel that that can be one of the downfalls of so many societies. Enjoy the song and just respect one another (at least in the name of music and art)
The video is New Wave. It was a rejection of all things hippie from the 1970s. Great song. A shame that Steve Strange has had such a tough time since.
It was really Duran Duran who started the big budget videos which were like mini movies.
You're... so narrow-minded. Not every 'young punk' enjoys the delights of the easily pleased mainstream masses. In fact, there are many who aspire to much greater, but you have your blinders on, I'm afraid. And this video... calling it 'art' is also a bit narrow-minded. If you'd like to see some true art from more modern music in videos, look no further than Isis or Tool or Neurosis or... well, there are a lot. Expand your horizons, old timer! :p
Although I do find this video to be on the artistic side, it was considered the basic art for it's time, in the 80's. Those with a more adventurous taste would consider Tool's videos to be art and not just some "weird garbage". But there can be more simple forms of art that are actually very creative for the less open minded. Sometimes, you can't break one of that habit. More fortunate for those whose taste isn't limited by religion and the mainstream. So in a way, I highly agree with you.
@takalua911 You couldn't be any more correct. I appreciate stuff. I was 5 years unborn when this video came out. My mum was still in art college. Old synthy stuff is grand!
Steve Strange = Visage, album title mind of a toy is a must have as there are many great tunes on this album. The whole set was recorded and mixed by midge ure (ultravox) and steve strange.
just remember dancing to this in my local youth club when it came out!! loved it to bits - went to Steve Stranges club in London in the 80's and was blown away...but then I was only about 17 and not as clued up as 17 year old these days!! great song !
A pumping beat years before its time, i recall then how music the artists made statements about them thru art/image/lyrics cared enough what was happening to people on the street ,the world thru politics,yes their was shit as well in music .But you dont get take that singing about injustices of the state.
This is not proto punk,nor is it blitz,this is something visionary+futuristic,STEVE STRANGE ,your a genious, you invented new romance new wave I solute you I'm in awe.
I think I prefer YouTube rather than the (old) MTV,because now I can play any videoclip I want,anytime I wish to.I'll never forget sitting through the whole 'Greatest Hits' only to see Depeche Mode at the end of the show for instance.I still miss '120 minutes' and 'Party Zone' though..
I agree. I don't think we have anything as weird and oiginal these days.I remember he was a real talking point and some people found this video weird and perturbing.Now I think there is a feeling we have seen it all. I don't think people really discuss pop stars in the workplace or school as much as they used to.
We don't have T.O.T.P. anymore, when half the nation would have the collective experience of sitting down and watching the stars whose records they had bought.
X factor is good and attracts 12 million viewers,but most participants are largely forgotten within a few months.
To be honest I'm probably not that fussed about not discussing current musical people much anyway, I don't find too many of them WORTH talking about. We talk about music a lot where I work and it varies from old to new. I know it's always been a part of the biz, but I think disposability has become an industry by-word these days. Plenty of other young hopefuls waiting in the wings when this batch has reached their use-by-date. 'Scuse my cynicism.
You should see it here in Japan, the land where originality is non-existent. One of the most popular girl bands has a revolving door recruiting policy that keeps them all below a certain age(give or take) and their Svengali wannabe manager rakes in the cash.
okay i've seen 400000000 of these things so i finally decided to test one. it doesn't involve people dying or anything but i still wouldn't read it. not bad tho...
1-say a girl or a boys name you want to be with 2 times
I remember being mesmerized watching this sitting in front of the tv. watching night-flight ... and so happy when this came on ...back when i was 15 ys olde ...
Dear God but this is good. One of the many things it's got going for it is, it's not by Manson. There's bad stuff out there, but this is for the early goth scene. The only thing strange (no offence) about Steve where his clothes. Go on. FWH: you call it Vis-arse? I call it Vis-AGE! Cunt!
Yeah, I always thought so, too, only it got categorised as synthpop, but in the intro, they list it as "special goth".
Obviously, I meant my comment before this as sarcasm towards the user "finestwineshumanity". The dude insulted the track and even called it "Vis-Arse" (he posted WAY before me), so I just responded by re-wording his comment. Hope that doesn't offend people here...
Won't hear a bad word said against this song - it's an absolute classic and sounds as good now as it did in 1980. Pure brilliance. New romantic music was fantastic until Culture Club showed up and ruined it. Visage never made a better record than this and I still have the single and still play it.
Dear God but this is dire. The one thing it's got going for it is, it's not by Spandau Ballet. The electro 80s are a minefield. There's good stuff out there (Propaganda, ABC) but this is decadence for the Club 18-30 set. Carry On Up The Reichstag. And the only thing Strange about Steve was his incredibly fat arse. Enough. Derek and Clive: You call it Visage? I call it Vis-ARSE! C***!
ABC good stuff? They were like Spandau Ballet or Duran Duran,the most commercial & easy doing music in the 80´s & the less creative.I prefer music like this song of Visage,special,different,unique,like songs of Yazoo,Ultravox,Kraftwerk,John Foxx,OMD,16 bit,New order,etc etc
I agree 100% sylvainsatori, this song was played in most nightclubs/bars/wine bars. Its a shame that there just isnt bands like this today but then again, would Visage fit in to the current UK/European scene?......
Visage in itself is a masterpiece of ART Avant Garde in it's purest form. Steve Strange being the face of Visage encapsulated the spirit of the band as well as blazing a trail in the 80's. I doubt anyone could of predicted the inpact 20 years later how we would still be talking about this magnificant band. Though they did not have the commercial success as Boy George or other's from the Blitz era did. Visage & Steve Strange will for ever go down in history as the trend setters of the 80's
wow... fantastic memories... this is the first record i ever bought. timeless, and just love the video... i feel like i am 10 years old all over again.
I don't know how you guys feel but when I hear the start of this song, imaginary disco balls start rotating in my head. Just the perfect song to bring back the 80s disco feel.

New Wave - 80's artists using synthesizers but where the synthesizer did not dominate the guitar. The guitar dominated or was equal to the synthesizer
Synthpop - 80's artists either using solely electronically synthesized sounds or the synthesizer was totally dominant.
I know new wave was a term used before the 80s but generally, that's my take on how you split this type of music
Pet Shop Boys, OMD - Synthpop
Duran Duran, The Fixx - New Wave

in response to the guy who dissed Visage:
Dear God but this is good. One of the many things it's got going for it is, it's not by Manson. There's bad stuff out there, but this is for the early goth scene. The only thing strange (no offence) about Steve where his clothes. Go on. FWH: you call it Vis-arse? I call it Vis-AGE! Cunt!

i think this track influenced fans of a whole range of genres, from goth to house....

Yeah, I always thought so, too, only it got categorised as synthpop, but in the intro, they list it as "special goth".
Obviously, I meant my comment before this as sarcasm towards the user "finestwineshumanity". The dude insulted the track and even called it "Vis-Arse" (he posted WAY before me), so I just responded by re-wording his comment. Hope that doesn't offend people here...

Won't hear a bad word said against this song - it's an absolute classic and sounds as good now as it did in 1980. Pure brilliance. New romantic music was fantastic until Culture Club showed up and ruined it. Visage never made a better record than this and I still have the single and still play it.

Cool to hear that a lot of people like yourself still like this great track.
I brushed the dust of my 'ol 45 the other day,and she still sounds great.

Im not saying their music is bad, it just didnt fit well into the new romantic style

Dear God but this is dire. The one thing it's got going for it is, it's not by Spandau Ballet. The electro 80s are a minefield. There's good stuff out there (Propaganda, ABC) but this is decadence for the Club 18-30 set. Carry On Up The Reichstag. And the only thing Strange about Steve was his incredibly fat arse. Enough. Derek and Clive: You call it Visage? I call it Vis-ARSE! C***!

ABC good stuff? They were like Spandau Ballet or Duran Duran,the most commercial & easy doing music in the 80´s & the less creative.I prefer music like this song of Visage,special,different,unique,like songs of Yazoo,Ultravox,Kraftwerk,John Foxx,OMD,16 bit,New order,etc etc

Steve Strange is the sex. He's still gorgeous. He's truly the beauty in Visage- Midge Ure is the brains.

I agree 100% sylvainsatori, this song was played in most nightclubs/bars/wine bars. Its a shame that there just isnt bands like this today but then again, would Visage fit in to the current UK/European scene?......

Visage in itself is a masterpiece of ART Avant Garde in it's purest form. Steve Strange being the face of Visage encapsulated the spirit of the band as well as blazing a trail in the 80's. I doubt anyone could of predicted the inpact 20 years later how we would still be talking about this magnificant band. Though they did not have the commercial success as Boy George or other's from the Blitz era did. Visage & Steve Strange will for ever go down in history as the trend setters of the 80's
