Wow smh @ the comments re quality of video- I mean yeah it would be nice if it was better but what can you expect from VHS recordings that are 30 years old? Those tapes deteriorate with age. Enjoy it for what it's worth. Today's generation are spoiled by modern and digital technology!
Well a higher quality version of this will be uploaded soon by PenarthJem, which in I had requested. this was the first time that the Clarendon font was used during on-screen graphics of songs.
Great song and still amazing to me that a lot of you don't know ...... former Human League members Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh who later became Heaven 17, with lead singer Glenn Gregory (who looks like the preacher from the movie Contact w/ Jodie Foster) ;)
What a toon, talk about taking me back to being a nipper, looks like i`ll be up for a while now and even more-so because i`ll be searching for level 42 toons :)
great song but shame about video

"Some of the music may be recorded, but the acts are live." Huh? Don't make me laugh. You had to BEG to be allowed to play live on TOTP.

Always loved this song! By the way, this is not a live music taping. They're using the album version.
