Love you Marc Almond. Hitting the notes from the side with utter disdain and a dark glittering brilliance. Such a magnificent vocalist and no-one else grabs a song by the balls like him. King Queen!
Jaw-droppingly beautiful magnum-opus from Marc and his Mambas....His voice is as clear as crystal, but is fragility with the pain of the subject matter....Much respect due from this Old Goth....
Thank you so much for sharing. My adolescence and this song of so much comfort. It might seem strange, but this song articulated my relationship with my mother. I had the 12." It was stolen by a heroin addict circa 1990. Always held it in my mind. Marc Almond forever!

"like an angry child" what a lyric, Marc Almond is the best
and oh, what a masterpiece this is, I understand it now, after many listens, and see my negativity as an entity I can easily conquer
Awesome.
cheers..
Thanks for the upload. I’ve can’t seem to find this version anywhere.
Thanks..there is a little blip part way thru but still ok & as you said I couldn't find it anywhere else
Buy the 12-inch record. Done deal.
Almond, Marc & the Mambas - Black Heart
Playing
With little pictures
That my mind sends
Counting
The moments 'til my world ends
All I remembered are the bad times
And its chewing away at my insides
When you looked that way
Oh I knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart
Leaving
All I remembered
Was your breathing
Heavy and low
You told me to go
You became a figure in my bad dreams
I became a figure in your dark schemes
When you looked that way
Then I knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart
Night creeps
Its wicked way
Just like a spider
Stealing, the feelings that hide
Black heart and wild
You were so like an angry child
When you looked that way
Oh I knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart
Skin crawls
My thoughts of living little dangers
And finding hope in total strangers
It took so long
To learn your little ways
When you looked that way
Then I knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart
Pushing
Your icy fingers always crushing
Your jealous mind so disapproving
You laughed at all my ideas
And encouraged all my fears
When you looked that way
Oh I knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart
When you looked that way
Oh I knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart
Leave me alone
Stop pushing at me
You got your revenge
For the love that I lent
You're destroying my mind
You're destroying my soul
Black heart
