never got enough credit as one of the most complete albums of the 80s; never got enough play anywhere; will never get enough of this song, this band, and everything my mind associates with them; beautiful
Every time I hear this song I remember hanging out at the Bonham Exchange (dance club) with my club friends in San Antonio, Texas, 1986-87. Those were fun days. I still dance to this song.
you gotta just feel the happy coming off this song, this is when music was awesome, they played this at my high school dance, i loved everything about that time.
This album was truly a gem in the 80s. Such a great vibe to it. Apparently they are back together in 2013 and possibly writing new material. Fingers crossed.
Graciassssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss Estuve Años buscando ésta canción, la colocaban los Djs pero no lograba identificarla!1 GRACIAS Por subirla !! THE BEST!!!
OMG MEE TOO!! Found it in a bin at the now defunct Tower Records used to be @ corner Fourth & Broadway in NYC!! Got my Adam & the Ants in Japan VHS & almost all of my new wave there or at Bleeker Bobs in the Village Thanks to the rents for taking me to get my music fixes!!
A nagging mystery solved. 25 years ago, I heard this song played a few times on the radio but I kept missing the DJ's identify the name of the band or the song. Over the years, I would wonder, what was that song and I thought I would never know. A few days ago, I heard this song again for the first time in 25 years and finally found who it was. Love the song now as much as I did then. Discovering this was a happy day.
@spazkaz999 I have always loved this band and their music. I only wish they had been 'discovered' and had the recognition they deserved, and had released a few more albums.
hi people....in venezuela hen i was a child book of love was ...number one since then i' ve never forg***you i lov yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Starting at around 4:53, she starts singing something in the background, but I can't make it out. It sounds like "chalk like glue" or "chocolate you" or "chocolate love" or something. Anybody know what she's saying?

@webersteven ......... Agreed!!! ... This song was my favorite. It went perfectly to my teenage crushes way back when. lol.
Años buscando esta cancion, Gracias al Dinosaurio de Polo Troconis por fin la encontre debe tener como 25 años!!!!!
Love them!
Emerged at the very tail end of the "New Wave" era, if they had hit in the early 80's instead I would think they could have been much bigger.
I lost m,y copy of their very first LP/// I love and still try to find this song again "Modigliani - Lost In Your Eyes "
I STILL HAVE THIS CASSETTE!!!! WHITE COVER WITH BLACK WRITING!!! AND BLACK ROSE!!
Love it!!!
this song and weed makes me feel so good
Great song!
