We used to cry About the day when one of us might fall Weak and blindly into another's arms Demands are gained from jealousies Would flow like water drowning us But leaving us with just another Lover's false alarm And now it's over Both of us free But I feel colder A thousand tortured lives have fallen Wounded dying cut down by the Questions that we've sharpened Just to save our losing days We thought we'd nothing more to lose We'd tear our hearts with jagged truths And everything we'd hung to for so long Just slipped away And now it's over Both of us free And I feel colder I was tired of thinking that Our love can shine your thoughts Of our arrangements Were really not like mine I thought it over And it was plain to see the love you said You once needed Could just not come from me And now it's over Both of us free And I feel colder And now we're moving to new beginnings But as we move we looked once behind To see what we might find out Lost loves and old thoughts of our nights of winnings That lunge, tear and grasp At lost wanting minds
I think it's probably just because Gervais' schtick is being so cynical and pointed. A younger version of himself that sings optimistic new romantic songs just doesn't mesh with the persona he spent the last 20+ years cultivating. Plus he still seems a little hurt by the fact that this never went anywhere. He always refers to this as his "failed pop career"
@@FerretyCoffee It's not a failure - it was what it was. I don't think he's deeply embarrassed - he just doesn't put on his CV so to speak - he treats it like a naff college job.
It's a solid B-class song. But you know how we're all edgy and dismiss anything thats not top notch and say it's shit immidiately? I think that started in the 80's. Because it's based on the "desire to appear cool" and that culminated in the 80s. /Someone born just after the 80s had ended.
This song became very big abroad especially in asian countries. Ricky also said that he was never embarrassed by this era he is more embarressed by the way society has deemed it.
@@FerretyCoffee That is logical reasoning, I'm just not sure its true. Something is really off as to his disdain, not sure if we will ever get a good answer from the twat.
I can easily see this playing over the end of a movie where the character jumps into a convertible and drives off into the sun to start a new life in another city. It has that 80s final credits feel.
been a bar spinner and I use to play this song a lot, I love the piano intro and drum rolls. Ricky Gervais after life series is a must to watch too. April 15, 2023.
Every time I hear this song, I always feel that nostalgic 80s feeling. A place or era I remember that I know I've never been before but it feels very familiar.
Awesome, I wouldn't have even thought to check again! Hope some much needed revenue can finally come to the singer, I bet he could really use the money .. 😅
That is the best thing he has ever done in his life, Its a masterpiece of poetic and musical brilliance. How could he be so insecure with this? I would be so proud to create something so beautiful. Such an underrated song. The lyrics are so amazing. The music is so foreboding and spiritual for such a cold hurt guy. That's why he does all those roasts on people. Because he thought he "failed". But he made a masterpiece. He should look back at this and say what a masterpiece. Every time I listen to this modern depressing music I have to go back and listen to 80s music to cleanse my soul;)) what a time the 80s.
Request this song on Spotify through their personal google forms document. The form will reach them eventually and they may add this song onto the platform. If more people request it they will perform the indicated function. Thx friend
Many singers consider their hit songs to be a bad thing. I don't understand how this is possible but this song is another example of that. Unfortunately.
this song was a big hit here in the Philippines in the 80s! long live newwave!!!
You said it bro
New wave forever
I dance it the street even I'm alone
Sinabi mo brod new waver tau
A radio station FM frequency once called the song "Medium by Fade" or "Fade by Medium." Natatandaan mo ba, bro?
@@Caesareasss214yes 99.5 RT in its New Wave phase
Totoo yan lalo na yung album ng "Lost & Found" new wave hits God i love it men ❤️
Ricky may say they are a "failed band", but in our hearts they made it. More than he'll ever know.
What do you mean?
@@robbru3112 what the fuck do you think they mean? That they love Seona's songs. And that this song in particular was huge in Philippines.
his standards are always higher than what he does
We used to cry
About the day when one of us might fall
Weak and blindly into another's arms
Demands are gained from jealousies
Would flow like water drowning us
But leaving us with just another
Lover's false alarm
And now it's over
Both of us free
But I feel colder
A thousand tortured lives have fallen
Wounded dying cut down by the
Questions that we've sharpened
Just to save our losing days
We thought we'd nothing more to lose
We'd tear our hearts with jagged truths
And everything we'd hung to for so long
Just slipped away
And now it's over
Both of us free
And I feel colder
I was tired of thinking that
Our love can shine your thoughts
Of our arrangements
Were really not like mine
I thought it over
And it was plain to see the love you said
You once needed
Could just not come from me
And now it's over
Both of us free
And I feel colder
And now we're moving to new beginnings
But as we move we looked once behind
To see what we might find out
Lost loves and old thoughts of our nights of winnings
That lunge, tear and grasp
At lost wanting minds
👍👍
Is it just me or this is legitimately a really good song? Like I don't understand why anybody would be embarrassed of being the author of this

Timeless classic song a big hit in here in the Philippines up until now!♥️
I still have the 12” single, loved it when it came out, love it now, super underrated track.
Me too. Bloody fantastic 👏
This has the classic 80's sound. I like it. It's a shame they didn't keep going. Ricky, you did not fail.

More like jumps over a cliff to his doom.
anthem
This is dedicated to the lost of Love and Friendship...To The Wounds That Never Heal...More To Lose 🤘
A coming of age tale
Yesssss
still can't wrap my brain over the fact that ricky gervais is a part of this band...anywho, one of my fave songs from the 80s...classic!
who told you that?
@@todd5827 What?
@@todd5827 What?
@@ascelin8880 that Gervais is in this pop duo
@@todd5827 It's true! He looks very different now but it is him
listening n 2023 , 80s boy here from Phillipines, Valenzuela City
Underrated. It always makes me cry. Wish they did more stuff.
It feels like 80s again... oh man, those are the best times..
It's 2023 , Still listening to this song. I remember when I was a kid every morning, my uncle always playing music like this .
Gervais definitely channeling Bowie. Its a great song
That's what I thought :) he should make a comeback!
Reincarnation
Someone needs to use this in a movie soundtrack to make it the hit it deserves to be :)
Agreed. Or GTA.
Amazing, piano, synth, voice all perfect for the time..
The piano, the synth, the voice, brilliant

Nice
One of my favourites of all times.
"More to Lose".... was not a big hit in the UK..... But in 🇵🇭 it was a phenomenal hit!!!!.... One of the best New Wave Anthem........
It's fantastic 👏
I agree !!!!
I don’t know why Ricky is embarrassed by this. It’s a brilliant 80s pop tune.
this song will always have a special part in my heart, such perfection ♫♪
Every time I hear this song, I always feel that nostalgic 80s feeling. A place or era I remember that I know I've never been before but it feels very familiar.
It never gets old
Forever new wave
Forever young
99.5RT dubbed this classic as "the Song of the Century"...
Probably right. 😊
They are finally on Spotify!
NO!!! At last!
Awesome, I wouldn't have even thought to check again! Hope some much needed revenue can finally come to the singer, I bet he could really use the money .. 😅
@@hudders11 You know the singer is Ricky Gervis right?
@@rayman17578 I absolutely do, I was being sarcastic
Brilliant 👏 😂
Finally released on itunes🙂
This song will always remind me of a moment in my life when I had it all…and suddenly lost everything. Memories and nostalgia are all that is left.
I know how you feel 😢

IWANTMYMOVIE: Well-stated, very true. What a great song indeed.
great sound, very Bowie in the vocals, and reminds me of Ice House too :)
Defo sounds like Iva Davis
Iva Davies was an admitted Bowie fan himself.😊
it’s 2024 and Repeating ⏮️ 😊 from the Philippines 🇵🇭
The music I grew up with. DAMN.
Have always loved the melody its beautiful!
Ricky Gervais os the lead vocals of Seona Dancing…one of my favourite songs of the 80’s…
hearing this is so like the 80s exploding onto everything and bringing such good things back into the present time...
superb....music of the 80s....
The production is great on most of the songs.
Still one of the greatest electro-pop songs of the 80's - Up there with Nowhere Girl by b-Movie and wonderlust by The Fallout Club.
Wow, those are some great songs. Do you have more recommendations?
@@_mark1 Glad you liked those songs - try ruclips.net/video/vP-AZdDbKOA/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/pWxJEIz7sSA/видео.html
@@mikeyperki Thank you so much! You have amazing taste in music :)
The legacy of this song can be found with many Filipino rock bands such as River Mayas Ulan, the piano solo riff.
Love the voice! So perfectly handsome!
that is really good - my kind of music, a keeper...
This song was the soundtrack of my high school years.
Long Live New Wave ❤
Take me back there.
Superb..kind and high class of music❤❤❤❤❤❤
Amazing song.

I honestly absolutely love this song. 😮

This not being on Spotify is just one of the many inequities in the world...
So true.
Because it's a underrated song and this is one of these rare and obscure music in the 80's.

THIS SONG SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN A JOHN HUGHS MOVIE LIKE ...16 CANDLES‼️‼️ 😢

He kinda sounds like Brett Anderson from Suede, who Ricky, go figure, would go on to manage.
My fave new wave band and now my fave host comedian Ricky Gervais👍
This song is amazing. So well written and performed. I could have used it back then. Maybe he'll re release it.

Ricky Gervais if you are reading this... Thank you...
3% chance that he would read it 🤣
There goes David Brent. I must remember to thank him.

@@rossco7214 ^ someone who didn't get laid in the 80s
Breakwater days behind cultural theater. Bring your own booze. Dance on the ledge at your own risk Hehe
Simon cowell is the judge of this masterpiece
I was today years old when I find out Ricky Gervais had a new wave band.
Ricky Gervais had a great voice
