1983-Number 9 single.
Best Bit-At 1.18.’I’ve played you all my favourite records.’They are possibly referring to a previous single called ‘In The Name Of Love.’
The Thompson Twins took their name from the two detectives Thompson and Thompson in the comic strip The Adventures Of Tintin.
The song was recorded by the most recognised lineup of Tom Bailey,Joe Leeway and Alannah Currie.
The original lyric was written by Currie from the female perspective.It was based on her personal experience,but because she wasn’t the lead singer they changed it to make it come from a man’s perspective.
The song became the first of their ten top forty singles in the UK between 1983-1985.
‘Then i find myself going through the same old rhapsody.rap boy rap.’
