    There was a lot of damn good music out of the 60's, 70's & the 80's. Of all the new romantics I loved Spandau Ballet & ABC. The music was melodic, tasteful & so romantic & sexy. The songwriters were truly AMAZING.

    From an early age I was taught to respect
    That a broken heart girl
    Ain't a thing you collect
    Close your eyes and say
    Nothing lasts a day
    You're wasting my time
    Yet I love to love you
    Close your eyes and say
    Honour love obey
    You're wasting my time
    Yet I love to love you
    It's cold outside
    The night love died
    On the night you murdered love
    It's cold outside
    The night love died
    On the night you murdered love
    January, February, March and April
    May
    June July sees you go by
    I see love walk away
    Didn't use a blade
    A bullet or a gun
    You poisoned the moonlight
    It's cold outside
    The night love died
    On the night you murdered love

    FYI this song was co-produced with the late great legend that is Mr Bernard Edwards of CHIC fame, this is one of his bass lines which explains the super funky feel.
    Nile Rodgers & Bernard are responsible for some of the biggest hit's during the 80-90's for artists like D Bowie (lets dance), Madonna(material girl), duran-duran, diana ross, sister sledge.. the list goes on. and not forgetting Niles current work with daft punk and others. According to Nile about a billion $ worth of music to date , RIP Mr Edwards

    Listened today when I was in my car... I felt myself still young! in 1987 I was 19 years old. I miss those carefree times! Music is ageless for sure!

    Uno tra i più bei brani di sempre. La classe non è acqua.
