    It's funny, I always interpreted the lyrics "homo superior, in my interior" as him declaring himself as being a superior type of being, an Übermensch, on the inside despite outwardly appearing as a normal man, but apparently it's a far more physical reference, with "homo superior" simply meaning "man on top" and " in my interior" referring to...lol.


    That's what I get for reading too much Nietzsche.

    Man haven't heard that in awhile.


    His big hit, with a white suit as a nice bonus.


    Even today I doubt there would be a hit song (as this was in Australia and Canada) about an encounter between two gay men. In 1981 it was quite daring. Too daring for the BBC, which banned it.

    Pretty good recreation of Human League's Don't You Want Me.
    After explaining all the electronics that went into it, go to 20:31
    for the results.

    That brief newspaper headline "British Electric Foundation crashes" at the start of the Heaven 17 video is a reference to B.E.F. which, well just read it.

    That ABC album was produced by Trevor Horn and was far better than their later stuff.



    And now one from the second Ultravox album, the last one with John Foxx as lead. You can hear a lot of this sound in one of his solo albums The Garden, a track of which I linked a few posts up. The Garden actually has a track called Systems of Romance.

    The less said about post-Foxx Ultravox, the better.

    Unfortunately with each passing birthday this song becomes more and more relevant....

    Nick Feldman and Jack Hues​ of Wang Chung were in a earlier group titled "57 men"
    and also included Glenn Gregory lead singer of Heaven 17 and also later worked with the band ABC.

    Some ABC (which we've posted before no Glenn Gregory involvement)
