    Sadly the last song as a quartet. This was a stand alone single and at the time the only album you could find it on was "Ultravox, the Collection" . Bought Midge Ure's "the gift" album the following year. Hoped that they'd reform, but came back as a trio in '86 and it was missing something. Waited and hoped they'd reform again and got my wish. The quartet returned and I bought the "Brilliant " album. Sadly I think that's it now. They've earned their retirement and what a great way to earn it.

    for a later years Ultravox tune, it's certainly one of my favs from the band overall. The adventurous theming, tensing building middle section, the string/brass hits throughout the middle section add on to the tension of the middle section before the final verse
