[marty9040]

its about time mark hollis/talk talk were in the music hall of fame.

not the same version on the zabou soundtrack

"Why is it so hard?....Better to escape."

Lyrics appropriate to the band's struggle with EMI. Mark won in the end since he "escaped" on his own terms. Still I continue in the hope that Mark only quit the music business and not music itself...

Thanks Colour one of my personal favs...So melodic and the 12 in extended version is great as well...A group beyond it's time

[sropiza]

Love it one of the best...the extended version even better...Melodically one of the best dance songs ever...Remember it at Saint parties...Different in it's time

I agree. The U.S. extended version was featured on "It's My Mix". I didn't hear the single version until ASIDES BESIDES came out.

The single version was featured in the film "First Born" in the mid eighties.

[gvillesmiths]

yes. This was a staple at the saint parties. The top floor was always magical. It was like a record spinnin on it's on. Things like that will never happen again.
