Don't get all the Ure vs Foxx haters - heard Ure sing this at Jenkinsons bar back in the early 80s and loved it, worked really well in a small sweaty club. I later heard John Foxx do this with Louis Gordon in 2003 and also loved it - both very different versions from the original (and probably best), but hey no reason to pour the hate on though!

Wow, this is a disturbing thing to which to listen. Sorry but, for me, Ultravox! began and ended with John Foxx and the sound of Midget singing perhaps the greatest Ultravox! song of all time really rubs me the wrong way.
-
HOW DARE URE SING THIS??? It's John's song alone.....
-
Roland TR-77 drum machine, by the way...
-
Thank you! I have remembered this song since hearing it on an Uvox tour circa 1980...it was one of their best that night and anyone who ever saw them know what a great band they were live...underrated, in both eras...
-
Great!! Midge sung Foxx's!!
-
love Midge Voice... I can't listen Ultravox before him.... sorry.

John Foxx' version of Mr. X was called Touch and Go and appears on his first solo album Metamatic. It sounds much different, but the Foxx version was performed on Ultravox' Systems of Romance tour.

There was a brief period - late 79 to about the summer of 81 - when they occasionally played Systems era stuff with Midge singing. I saw them do Slow Motion and Quiet Men at Crystal Palace Bowl in the summer of 81 and it was awesome. They frequently extended HMA and it became a bit of an industrial jam.

odd - in a bad way.
I love both Foxx era Ultravox! and Midge era Ultravox... but this clash between the two just doesn't work one iota.
Really glad to have heard it, however. Always wondered what the Foxx stuff sounded like with Midge's vocals.
