Good to hear, but I keep waiting for them to break into 'Love My Way' LOL!

"Forever Now" came out in 1982 - "Love My Way" was on "Mirror Moves" - 1984 |

For me those are the only two PF songs I care to hear, though the horn in this track is cool. |

It's like the karaoke machine played the wrong lyrics. |

The Furs, I can't believe it. I haven't heard this in so long, my nose is twitching. Bill Thanks.

Man, if you lived through the eighties,and weren't part of the mainstream, this song was like an anthem.
Serious flashbacks. My nose is actually twitching....
Does anyone remember the extended dance version of, " Heartbeat?"
Mumumu my life , Mumumu my life, Mumumu my life of crime!

Can't believe this song has only got a 5.5 rating. One of my favourite blasts from the past - very atmospheric. Not a great fan of the Furs, but think this is a great song. Produced by my a great hero of mine - Todd Rundgren. I'll have to boost the ratings a little.

I've actually heard a few albums lately where a couple songs sound a lot alike. Burial - Untrue and The Tough Alliance - A New Chance ("solid good times...") come to mind. No Easy Street probably sounds better in context with the rest of the album.

Sounds like some ill-conceived "mash-up". They can do and have done a lot better. 4

Now this is why I listen to RP. Don't just play Pretty in Pink or Love My Way over and over and over.
Excellent song for its time and it hold up fairly well.

Since this song appears on the same album as "Love My Way", one would have to assume that the resemblance is a deliberate artistic choice. Perhaps this makes sense in the context of the album; I can't say it's any less unsettling out of context, however.

I thought that too. The verse tune is virtually indistinguishable from LMW. Guess he knew he had something good  |

Yoink!
This is a different mix than I am used to -- and I'm not sure I like it very much...
