  • so great to see: those tapes rolling, the simple synths, those 2 girls dancing & the great Phil Oakey peering out from behind that classic hair~style .. this was so exciting this period ..basic but inventive ..it seemed to be leading somewhere, but ended up being 'it'.

  • I only found out tonight that Martin Rushent had sadly died on June 4th 2011.

    The song we are commenting on was re-worked and produced in 1981 by Martin Rushent for The Human League which subsequently became part of he Dare album which sold in huge amounts all around the world thanks to the genius of a human being named Martin Rushent.

    Rest in peace for now martin,no doubt you will be coming back to show us how it's done...again!! :)

  • still have fantasies about the two birds in the group.

  • @powerkor

    is just for the show.....not real musical reason

  • WHY ARE THE TAPE MACHINES RUNNING IN THE BACK?

  • @bjgjeff Very sad/

  • @bjgjeff P.S. I rocked the BLEEP out of this jam on the radio all throughout the 80's so New York would get a taste of what brilliance in the evolution of dance music was all about. The extended 12" version with it's delicious Rushent production on the break was outstanding and will always live in my heart as a personal favorite!

  • I was in love with the sounds that came out of those women! Their angelic voices were just sublime and the icing on the cake for the band's musical output. Oakey - you will always friggin' ROCK !!! MUCH RESPECT AND LOVE! You touched lives and will always continue to do so!

  • @nikamota I am shocked and saddened to see the news of Martin Rushent passing. I will always fondly remember his generosity with his time as he and I did 3 hours of reminiscent radio for the NY audience where we went through his discography and played DJ together. This was when I produced the "Post-Punk-Progressive-Pop-Par­ty" on Hofstra University's Radio station. I was at the helm for fifteen years, and Martin's visit was one of the highlights of my broadcasting career. God BlessYou Martin.

  • I was in love with Phil Oakey... they were amazing

  • i must be old...iremeber seeing this on tv at the time :0(

  • a month ago I bought a mint condition Human League poster from some guy on Ebay. It features them in front of a rainbow-like background, half of them kneeling in the front and the 3 others standing in the back. Wondering if it's worth anything. Anyone know more about this poster and if it's rare or not? Says it was printed in Essex in 1983 by a company called Anabas.
