A very powerful great song that i played over and over again in my early teenage years .... Its got bits of punk , reggae , new wave etc .. They were pioneers of music and provided the link between punk and what later became electronic/ new romantic music

@cazzfoxx Awesome track and I'm a huge fan of the Foxx era but I can't imagine him writing something as great as Passing Strangers or Accent On Youth either.

I could never imagine Midge Ure writing anything this good !

I've listened to a couple Ultravox songs, now. I like them They were doing electronic punk that's quite a bit like what people are only now getting into. They remind me a little of Past Lives, a project with former members of The Blood Brothers. In other songs they sound almost just like The Arctic Monkeys, though. It's nice to stumble across these kinds of influences for modern sounds.

Rap Punk a decade before the Beastie Boys rediscovered it.

Wonder if Foxx ever turned to writing fiction. His imagination and abliity to create an imagined world is really brilliant. I could see him being a good science fiction writer. Bought this album on the strength of the single wrock rock which my mate was constantly playing at the time.
You cant deny that they were really onto something, they make a lot of other bands of that era seem a little bland.
Only 31 yaers old as well.
