    its amazing how this song is still just wonderfully written and the lyrics could as easily have been written about syria recently. Susan and Joanne just sum up early 80s new romantic looks too. Iconic stuff

    Thanks for posting this 80 's classic , the first track they used guitar in , the bass intro is just hypnotic. Pure brilliance , electric guitar blends in perfectly with their own synth style sound.

      Postamos e gostamos de vários estilos musicais!
      O rock roll tem vários ícones que assumiram serem gays: David Lee Roth ( Van Halen), Rob Halford ( Judas Priest) e Freddie Mercury ( Queen).
      Essas bandas fazem um som de primeira!!!! verdadeiros hinos.
      A calça sem a parte de traz, que o David e o Rob usavam na carreira solo era bem convidativa.....
      O som New Wave da Human League agrada garotas e rapazes. independente da opção sexual.
      Obs: todos os seis membros da formação clássica do Human league são Heteros.......e que diferença faz isso na musica?

      Kelly14UK, I fully agree with you. This song is definitely one of the best songs ever just like so many of The Human League's other hit. After learning that this song reached #11 on the UK pop charts and #13 on the NZ pop charts, I felt the song should've peaked in the Top 10. Still, I've loved this song since I first heard it in 1984 and I always will.
