Terry's never been known for his smiling happy-go-lucky attitude (which is the least we can say) & the song is about relationships failing, but noticed how he introduced the song, and said ''love'' (in Tunnel of...)? Even by his standards, that was pretty sarcastic. So happy to see this vid. I love him, he's my man! He's a genius!
Jerry Sadowitz who appeared in Terry Blair&Anouchka's video of Ultra Modern Nursery Rhymes, complained that this video infringed upon his copyright. Jerry's been replaced.
It has taken 5 months to do this!
Although angry with Jerry, I am also grateful because, I would have never learned Adobe After Effects and graphic animation. So thank you Jerry!
Jerry has been replaced by a number of colourful characters! Marc Bolan even makes an appearance! Bet he won't complain??!!!
LOVE this song great vocals, terrrific tune and the lyircs are SO smart... And when I was 11 years old I was so proud that I could play the cello part along to this. (But never the trombone part!)
I fell in love with this tune back in 1983 and still get the same feeling when I hear it now. Another great tune by Terry Hall (Specials) is "Friday Night, Saturday Morning" and "Our Lips are Sealed" by F.B.3

i thought that there was very little worth cherishing from 1983 - new order, the cure, elvis costello, maybe. Then I remembered this, and our lips are sealed. And REM! and then the Smiths kind of appeared. so, 1983. shit, but could be worse.
Gilbert fun!!!
