Album : The colour of spring
Piste : 5
Année : 03.1986

Sortie single : 04.1986 (face A)

Better parted
I see people crying
Truth gets harder
There's no sense in lying

Help me find a way from this maze
I can't help myself

When I see tenderness before you left
That even breaking up was never meant
But only angels look before they tread

Better parted
I see people hiding
Speech gets harder
There's no sense in writing

Help me find a way from this maze
I'm living in another world to you
And I can't help myself

Did I see tenderness where you saw hell
Did I see angels in the hand I held
God only knows what kind of tale you'd tell

The Colour Of Spring is very scary...scary good. Not often an artist (or group of artists) delivers so complete and integral a concept. A perfect package; beginning to end. God! I love this album so fucking much...Mark Hollis is quite obviously a musical genius. Wish they were still recording.

I was 28 - My life was in a shambles and I was trashed, every night. What I wouldn't give for those days again, and this music....The best years of my life. A passion one seldom finds, in music or anything else, these days. Everything's become so safe and formulaic and smug and cynical and remote-controlled - The corners and sharp edges have all been padded. Life's about all the fuck-ups, paper-cuts and ass-kickings that let you know you're still breathing and above-ground. Simply. Lovely. Song.

I was 16 when this album was released. It changed my life...I love it today at the age of 42. Thank you, thank you, Mark Hollis, you genius. This one song encapsulates so much of my life.

Radiohead's Uncle certainly showed them a thing or two on the trick of making truly beautiful music (as in NOT POP SHITE) and absolute absorption of the human psyche within the dimension of sound. We are all alone.............together. hello.

Great song! They don't make them like they used to...

[nirmalory]

I miss you.....lots of love....

fantásticos anos 80/90.

@WasabeJoe Couldn't agree more son. The I Pod generation are suicidal if they haven't receive a text message for thirty seconds. Richer materially, poorer spiritually. And they missed out on music before it was prepacked.

Best mouth organ EVER !!!

Well said and I agree with your keen observance. This album is a masterpiece of musical intelligence. It's a shame that they're mainly known for a couple of hits, because they are so obviously more deserving of accolades and appreciation. A tight, complex, enigmatic band. Genius is right!
