Some great music from the 80s, no.3
Spandau Ballet. True
From its first notes this Spandau Ballet ballad has become a sing-along classic. It marks the transition of the band from the early-80s Blitz-scene to the mainstream of UK pop, and its none the worse for that. True has a lovely lilting rhythm, a great jazz-inflected sax solo & of course that great chorus. Tony Hadley's slightly idiosyncratic vocal phrasing is also deployed to great advantage; it remains a classic!
