      Because Charlie Wilson's manager and label executives told him that they won't let him do this song....but he told them they are already done with song...so album version is most Shirley Murdock.

    This song and it’s video are so amazing. I heard this song on the radio a few nights ago after taking my girlfriend to work at her job and I had to stop the car and have the Google App tell me what it was. I got home and found the song on RUclips and then bought the song on Amazon to add to my library. This song and it’s video are so amazing in saturated 1980’s awesomeness.
    I love this song. I listen to it on repeat at least 7 times each part of the day that I get a chance to listen to it.
    I almost feel like having a TV mounted on the wall that repeats this music video endlessly. I want to some beautiful energetic and emotionally powerful melodic electric guitar music to this song.

      @@BravoShow I don't know who originally came up with this story about Charlie Wilson's label not allowing Zapp to release "Computer Love" with his voice in it, but it's not true. Go listen to the original version from their 1985 album "The New Zapp IV U." Charlie's voice is clearly on the track. He's even credited for his vocals in the album's liner notes. There's one version that Charlie's voice isn't in and that's 8+ minute extended version from the 12-inch vinyl single, but he's in every other officially released version.
