I don't know where I was in thoose years in Limbo I thoughtcause i'm 17 now, but the thing is that this song all 80'ies songs makes me feel so strange young people doesn't know what they're loosing... what a waste of time listen house having this (L)
Stephan (the keyboardist) was volunteering at a hospital and got a call that ABC was going to be on TOTP, so he called the hospital to say he wasn't coming in the next day, and they asked why he said "I am going to be on TOTP." He couldn't believe they were going to be on.
ABC, The Pet Shop Boys, and Jimmy Sommerville are the best ...also Chris Isaak and The Fine Young Cannibals...I am so psyched...Martin Fry is coming to Chastain Park in Atlanta next week...I have seen the PSB , Chris Isaak in concert...and INXS ....but never believed I would ever see ABC....would love to see Jimmy Sommerville...the 80's music rocked!!!!
I was in Vegas on 8/2 as well 5th row. I agree voice incredible. I went again in LA on 6/5 The audience was so behind all the groups but especially ABC Martin Fry was noticabbly touched by the response. He was incredible. One of the most overlooked performers!
Agree, I was there at the Gibson, He was awesome and is a shame that I was not able to record him, but I did het human league, check it out ALL, Great Great Show, hope they tour again, I AM There!!!
i love martin fry so much,he still looks soooooooooooo good,have you seen how terrible leif garret looks now? is depressing,martin i want to be your wife and lose my virginity with you right now!!!
Did u hear those beautiful Anne Dudley produced strings ? I was 21 when this song came out, a g8 time 2 b alive in Sydney Australia with all th fantastic british songs coming thru. Bless u Martin & th boys
Great suits. So much better than that awful straw boater filled video they made. Martin Fry looks like a Tory MP these days, but that's hardly a crime, is it?

Some very good talent on this one. This song was not out long before I snatched up the 45.
Yes I didn't believe in c.d.'s until I bought my first c.d. player in 1992.
It was the availablility of the c.d.'s and the music was less expensive at that time.
It's The Look of Love.

I saw Martin Fry in a petrol station a few years ago.He was wearing a track suit,unshaven and looked rough as hell.
I'm sure he was buying a pot noodle too.
