This is one of those songs that you hear in a great pair of headphones and are blown away at all the sounds voices that were put in this song on different levels.
Man, those guys were really pushing pop music further with their experimental edge. Just like Talk Talk, except Godley & Creme (with 10CC) were WAY ahead of their time. "I'm Not In Love" sounds, looking back, like it would have been recorded in the early 80s, with like a Fairlight or Synclavier sampler. But they did it all with tape, in 1975.
Shouts to Trevor Horn on this record! He was hot when he was hot! (his production I mean, not HIM)
saw one of the guys in the met bar london years ago,,wish i went over and said how much i liked this song.. my only night in there,,so many famous people in onep lace
One of the most brilliant music videos I've ever seen... Michael Jackson ripped this on off with "Black Or White". Good in its own ground-breaking way, but "Cry" beat him to it with the effective morph effect.
According to my fat, dole scum, spastic cunt brother....ed balls and gordon brown were in the origional line up for godley and creme, he reckonz ed pulled out to concentrate on the booty luv project, which i suppose one could argue has proved to be a shrewd move.
Love the song, it takes me back to a time when life was just....so damn easy, yes, I'm a child of the seventies but this 80's tune that hits me where it counts.
It's so amazing how accepting we were of dissolves. This was the precursor to morphing. The video still totally holds up. Today we expect flawless transitions when viewing special effects. WOW!
back in the day when music video was somewhat of an art form. It's sad to think of what Mtv has become. Mindless childlish drivel with hardly a video to be found.
I think so. I really respect him, well, apart from when he was with the Buggles!!! Just joking! Even the Buggles were better than most of what's around now!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I see everyone in there from Blondie's Debbie Harry, Moe Howard, Mr. T, Michele Pfieffer, a young Will Smith, Jake from 2 and half men with long hair, Lenny Kravitz, a mongoloid girl, Val Kilmer, a sad clown, Pink, ....video sucked!
Very well written song, the lyrics tell an interesting story. You cheat, you lie, you dont even know how to say goodbye, you make me want to cry. Great post, thanks!
I love the addition of Trevor Horn (the producer of the record) at the end of the video. Very unique concept for a video using now-primitive technology.
Still is - I mean, this is basically a series of crossfades. Black or White revolutionized the use of CGI in music videos; no one turns their head and sprouts a ponytail in this one, do they? :-P
No, that is a fake Blondie, and Mr.T, but the video was ground-breaking, and the song is Fantastic! The video is peppered with images of the band and their friends. It is awesome for having that very primitive echoplex looping and distinctively 1970s strat sound akin to Chris Bell.
wow i remember being haunted by this song when i was a kid...great stuff..the guitar work is nice..it sounds like early post zeppelin robert plant..wouldnt doubt if he's an influence..good stuff
