Thanks for posting this!

You are quite welcome! I may post another Psychedelic Furs song when I get less busy in the future (maybe Torch or Book of Days).

The passion of this song is so strong. It made the 90s grunge seem shallow by comparison. Most of that music from that time was just all yelling and screaming with no depth. The furs in the 80s and early 90s had heartfelt power!!! Even when he was in Love Spit Love Richard Bulter had that edge that so many bands fell short of.

[Northcarolinian]

You are right about the passion in this song. The album Book of Days is often overlooked since it is a little more serious than previous albums. Sadly, none of the songs from this album made it on to their Greatest Hits compilation.

Nod in your direction for posting this... The Furs rule...

[Northcarolinian]

Thanks for your comments. I may add other Furs songs like Highwire Days, Midnight to Midnight or even Book of Days. They do rule, and I really like Richard Butlers voice.

@djamesv Book of Days was a good return to form after Midnight to Midnight.

the remix for the columbia records sampler theodore is actually a more improved version of this song.

Book of Days was and still is my favourite Furs album. 1989 feels like yesterday.

I totally agree. Dead on friend!

One of the Furs greatest (but under-appreciated) songs! In any case it is one of the best on this album. Also, I saw this concert live and it was the best performance that I have ever seen. Richard played EVERYTHING from both this album and their first album!! It was at a dive in Denver , CO. Wow, time flies……………(A constant theme in Richard’s music, see Love Spit Love--for example ).

The Psychedelic Furs rules, yes, they rule! Great song!!!

This record has disappeared into the serious archives of Pysch Furs past. It's their most hard core recording, but it is really hot though.

Deepest Band I've ever known. Even though a lot of critics called them shallow in the 80s, this stuff went way over all their heads. Right up through the 1990s and beyond they have cranked out some of the best work I've ever heard. Both Happy & Sad at the same time, very Light & yet Very Dark sounding music and lyrics. The critics were the shallow ones all those years ago... stuck in their small world of the obvious, never reading the box they judge... and only judging by the covers.
