I love Steve...when I was 13...we seem so old to me...ha, ha, ha...He was probably 21...he was so handsome, sweet and yumy...Oh God...I am duty old ladie now. Papasito rico...te amo!!! 0:56
love SB, i used to have it on in my car all the while and my mates would get pissed of with me, but that was in the 80s, now they know what SB was about , they love it too, brings back there youth
I really love this song for some reason. As a male it's a bit embarressing admitting that i like spandau ballet but i really do. A good band with good musicians.
The best song they did and also on top 10 of all the 80's I believe. Not only great music but words are right on.
One day he'll build a statue with his hands.....lifeline...... live and let live in love.......live and let die in love......NEITHER HAS A GHOST OF A CHANCE, THOSE DECISIONS ONLY CAN BE MADE ONCE,...
I thought its just me feeling the world has become more rough and corrapted. the music became lame and not fun. Bimbos and pimps rull the music charts
@mobyboy unfortunately you're bloody right man. I thought this kind of feeling had something to do with the coming of the age, but I found out that's not the point; whenever I hear and see things like this, nice, funny, positive yet classy and cleverly done, I can see they're standing the test of time. Stupidity, cynicism, arrogance, excess and so on seem to be more fashionable nowadays but I'm pretty sure good things always come back. Time will tell.
This great tune was one of their many top ten hits, which is hardly ever included in eighties compilations. As much as I enjoy 'True' and 'Gold', they're a little over played at times.
My Favourite Band of the 80's.......oh Martin you are too much for my eyes to take in, i had such a thing for you and even now remember how i felt when i gazed at your poster on my wall, i know Shirley is lovely but why oh why couldn't you have been mine......lol x
Ack, how far American music has fallen - we had it all when these guys were hitting...but they're back together...and my Swing out Sister is still going strong. Elevating Britpop to an even higher level than it already was. Still gives me chills.
loved them until Roxy Music came along with Avalon and blew them out of the water. They were the original true romantics. But heck we all need a little romance in our lives.
Dont care Theyre old and so im I. And they wrote beautiful songs and so did I. They were born in the sixties and so was I . And you were not so I dont expect you to understand
@ImBetterThanYooo SAME! I'm 16 and I completely love all the music of Rick Astley, but alas his music has faded from its hype in the 80's (but a new single released tomorrow! so excited!) and I desperately want him to do a US tour! Get out of England Rick!
-Like your taste in music, let's keep in touch, seems we have the same music and same problems to share :P
i herad spandau ballet are reforming according to papers hope it s true i was only born in the 8os so couldnt really follow them have been listening to thier tunes for more than 1oyrs so hope they come to glasgow ill be at the concert
Songwriting and royalty issues. Apparently, Gary Kemp wasn't the sole songwriter as it were. They even took the case to court. A little similar to The Smiths.
The True album is to this day the best stand alone piece of music I have ever heard. It is the standard by which I continue to judge new music to this day!

There is nothing embarrassing about liking Spandau Ballet. I'm a 45 year old male and love this stuff because it's great music.
Now, embarrassing would be liking Def Leppard.
