Was there such thing as playing live on TV back in the 80s? I mean, I enjoy watching people mime, but it would have been so much more awesome if some songs INCLUDING THIS ONE, would be played live. I'm not trying to complaing:)
@CartoonsAndGameShows You mean like almost every pop star does now on TV..do you think Glee is live or MTV or VH1 or...too bad American Idol is live...it kills my ears....and at least we didn't computer alter our voices to secretly keep in tune like many performers do "live".....just had to say
could this have been any worse of a concept and lip sync job? Wow, this was painful and pleasure at the same time. My ears were like, "yessssss, i love this song".
My eyes, were like "what the hell is going on here. What is the face thingy supposed to be? Why are his pants pulled so high? Why is he not holding that mic near his face at the start, but is later, but the volume didnt change?".
I remember really liking this at the time, though I also remember it marked the start of his decline in popularity as it only reached about #30 in the charts
LOL, but think about how boring so many bands are. It was so cool to have a different dimension on stage with the mime. Saw him live and it really added a great dimension to things. :)
Howard if your out there reading this thankyou for your music it was an inspiration for me im now studing piano (jazz) and also im going to study blues and salsa ... thankyou ....
Can anybody please tell me what album this song 'All I Want' is on? I've looked everywhere but I can't find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It's from "One to One" 1986, SeaBasstian is right, It's not his strongest album but I still played the tape to death. I found it in thrift store for dollar a few years ago and had to buy it again.

Spinning around high on life, and wonder were those lyrics of Howard Jones.
A man of deep understanding, bridging the gaps where ever he went to invent.

Yeah isnt that strange, your so right, but when you just listen to the song, it is soooo great. I didnt get it why the song didnt go higher !
