  • So, which would you choose in this video...Andy or Paul?

  • Has a bit of a Ultravox Vibe to it, doesn't it?

  • I wore out my junk culture cassette listening to this song

  • nice barnet Bryn

  • 1:35 Bryn Gareth Jones, would you let him drive your boat in that fog...

  • Love this song, I had it on 12" once.. New Romantic !!!

  • strong tune!

  • IMHO a very underated song that should've done better than number 70 in the UK charts way back in 1984. Faired slightly better in Ireland (reaching number 29) My best song off "Junk Culture"

  • Not one of my favorite track, but again this is music, it captures different audiences in its own different ways.

  • i like this song from my favourite omd album junk culture but i dont think it should have been a single.The fourth single should have been all wrapped up or love and violence.

  • @MultiCoventry

    The singles from Junk Culture were:

    1. Locomotion

    2. Talking Loud and Clear

    3. Tesla Girls

    4. Never Turn Away

  • incredible blessed guy.

  • einfach nur eine geile stimme

  • Paul only sang a handful of songs, but this one of the best, if not the best OMD song ever.

  • sweet song

  • super, pamiętam to jak komuna upadła i to się przebijało.

  • Brilliant - so underated and a classic bring back the 80's!

  • brilliant song been looking for this for ages

  • Oh thank you so much for posting this. I totally forgot how much I love this song.

  • A forgotten gem,i bought the 12 inch when this came out,but like so many great tunes never got anywhere in the charts.

  • vaya no yo no soy de la epoca del video pero a mi parese exepcional que antes habian rolas tan poca madre como esta esta bien chingona.

  • Magnífico vídeo de un grupo al que nunca se le ha dado su sitio en la música; que es los altares.

    Video poco promocionado de una canción de cojones.

  • Pues a mi el video no me gusta nada, nada, auqne la canción es un temazo. De acuerdo en que no se les ha dado el lugar q se merecen.

  • Me hicieron una copia del album entero en un cassette virgen y no encuentro el nombre de la pista "extra" (tendría que subirla) entre esta y "love and violence"...

  • Bliss as perfection

  • Beautiful song. I really, really love this song. I'm not to keen on the video, cos if I was that woman, I'd never leave Paul =P. Paul is so cute in this video though, and he has a beautiful voice in this song. OMD <3, Paul Humphreys <3.

  • great track from omd... i had the 12inch version once, god know's where it went xx

  • GREAT GREAT GREAT!!! OMD could really hit it dead-on.

  • I really need to upload the extended version of this.. I have the vinyl.

  • Just uploaded it.

  • so happy to heaqr this

  • Very underrated song that deserved to become a bigger hit.

  • absolutely try to find the extended version,it is twice as long with the instrumental dramatic chorus even more intense, it is brilliant! And i agree the lyrics capture a feeling,that's why they sound abstract like "Souvenir" or even "(Forever)Live & Die" that are written from Paul Humphreys.Fantastic!

  • that is true. amazing

  • theres always channels on sky tv that show all 80s songs... id name them but they are forever changing lol

  • it's very good

  • Position 74 for 1 week? Unbelievable. I seriously rate this track. It is an 80's classic that fell through the net.

  • Why isn't a Tv channel wheret this kind of music is? Everywhere are the idiot R&B and hip-hop only

  • Never saw the vid for this... thanks! Great song!

  • I always thought this song was the acme of the Electric Pop period. I think it did so poorly in the ratings because nobody can figure out what the heck the lyrics mean. But the lyrics are not literal, they are impressionistic. They stimulate a feeling without meaning, which is the essence of the whole song: Your mind loses it's standing on terra firma and the gale force of the cascading rif of the bridge blows you away like a leaf in the wind.

  • a great song hard to believe it charted at number 74 just for one week !!!

  • It's got that great Christmas jingle chorus too! It's scandalous! This song goes well with the Crush track from the 'Crush' album.

  • this would make a great wedding song

  • Thats a really good idea...a lot of people think its gotta be some wedding song that everybody has heard etc not tha case ur too right!

  • one of may favourite tracks from one of the first albums i ever bought...on cassette tape as well!

  • believe it or not ive got the 12" version and its one of their best!!!

  • then upload it here!!!

  • great song

  • Look forward to the new album the guys are working on. This song was always one of my favs. Never knew there was a video. Thanks for posting!

  • Excellent stuff... Loved this song for over 20 years now and finally got to see a video to it. Thanks.

  • In an era of bombastic overproduction, OMD maintained humanity (considering the leccy sound) and 'soul(?)' in their records. Superior credentials. Here, is evidence.

  • Awesome song from a great album. One of my favorites.

  • thank you soo!!

  • Now this is music...

  • The best track from Junk Culture, the 4th single from the album and it on;y got to about number 70 in the charts, pity...!

  • An absolutely great lost OMD song. One of their major acheivments.

    The video is just sooooo '80s.

  • Wow. Haven't heard this song in eons and I'd never seen the video before. Thanks flans44 for posting and thanks to YouTube! Awesome!

  • Never heard of it in Canada, and i'm a hude fan. Why?

  • A pivotal track on the virtually perfect album _Junk Culture_, an absolute pinnacle of synthpop. Divine music!!!

  • Another great rare OMD's video.  I hope someday they will release the DVD including all of their videos.

  • An great Music,listen the Extended Version
