    Lyrics:
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Living out a memory of a love that died
    It's five and I'm driving home again
    It's hard to believe that it's my last time
    The man on the wireless cries again
    It's over, it's over
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Living out a memory of a love that died
    It's late and I'm with my love alone
    We drink to forget the coming storm
    We love to the sound of our favourite song
    Over and over
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Living out a memory of a love that died
    It's time and we're in each other's arms
    It's time but I don't think we really care
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
    Dancing with tears in my eyes

    Lyrics
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Living out a memory of a love that died
    It's five and I'm driving home again
    It's hard to believe that it's my last time
    The man on the wireless cries again
    It's over, it's over
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Living out a memory of a love that died
    It's late and I'm with my love alone
    We drink to forget the coming storm
    We love to the sound of our favourite song
    Over and over
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Living out a memory of a love that died
    It's time and we're in each other's arms
    It's time but I don't think we really care
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
    Dancing with tears in my eyes
    Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
    Dancing with tears in my eyes

    Born in 1986 I heard all these songs playing in my parent's car. Aha, Rah Band, Talk Talk, Ultravox, Alphaville, Bronsky Beat, Soft Cell, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark... They had a few new-wave compilations on audio cassette. All these songs really painted my early memories with some unique colours. I was a young boy full of hope for the future. I would never have imagined society would be such a mess in 2020.
    Dancing with tears in my eyes is one special track. I remember having mixed feelings about that one. Still have. It's stirring up some deep and unknown sentiment. Could not find a word for it.
    Thanks Ultravox you're great artists bringing beauty to the world.

    I love how Ultravox took on a more guitar-driven sound on some of the songs on Lament. I guess Midge was hearkening back to his harder Thin Lizzy days. He delivers these frantic tunes so well. His voice has the power of the sun.

    I'm 17. Ultravox were one of the first bands that I got into. When I was growing up, my parents introduced me to all of their best songs and I instantly fell in love. Their sound birthed such a passion for music in me, as I'm now a guitarist and singer in a band. Such a beautiful and emotional tune!

    It's about time Midge Ure became a Sir.
    He was the unsung hero of Band Aid 1985.
    Whilst Geldof took the glory, Midge ure was content to stay in the shadows and organise and plan the whole event. I will always hold him in the upmost respect for that.

    • @chesirekatja1698
      @chesirekatja1698 Před 5 lety +19

      You should read Geldoff's book about it all, you'll see what and who was behind the whole thing, who actually went to Africa and held dying children and made a lot of the big decisions. Who called and called and wrote anyone and everyone to get the whole thing off the ground. Yes, Midge helped a lot, but it was Geldoff that did most of the legwork and got it all going. They did write the song together and i do believe Midge should get more credit for that
