Visage’s biggest single. Midge Ure was in the band at the time and reportedly taught Steve Strange, a doorman at the London club the Blitz, to sing. Visage was at the center of the glam-rock-influenced “New Romantic” scene at the turn of the decade, which some believe was a reaction to punk, or to Thatcherism. Whatever; let’s dance.
