We didn’t realize how unique the 80’s were at the time I think. I am glad I was there growing up. Born in 1965, so 15 in 1980, perfect timing from my parents.
@@nicholasbuttery511Ah yes, the unsung hero. Edit. I have just added a comment for people to go to Christopher Payne’s channel and here how this song came to life.
New Romantic, New-wave, ultra-futuristic synth magical Anglais/French duo. Visage or vision that will never fade-to-grey... Sensational fabulous. Still way ahead of their time in 2020.
U're right. The mix of both English & French languages has stayed one of the main features of this song, spoken French lyrics conveying such a cold romantic melancholic touch.
@@AmberJan. Odd? It's just a positive fact. I also felt sad when I got the news of Steve Strange having passed but I have e.g., seen Midge Ure live end of 2023 who co-wrote this masterpiece and performed it at that event, which was great because it showed that the key creators are alive and still making phantastic music.
@@Lazelwood that might well be the case, but the comment was about that person being sad about Steve's passing, nothing to do with other people.. So I thought your comment was a bit random and unrelated to the initial post. But I get what you're saying. 😊
One of the most beautifully haunting tracks from the 80s. And not only the music but the whole "scene" of the 80s! The art movements, the fashion, the energy of creativity it seemeed everywhere!
Please take me back to the 80’s there are to many amazing memories to even count!! Fade to Grey was created by many brilliant musicians... R.I.P. Steve Strange ... take care everyone stay safe!! With luv from Toronto , Canada 🇨🇦 LA 2021 ♥️🎹🎶
One of the quintessential synthesizer songs, capitalised by Steve Strange's haunting vocal. "Fade to Grey" is an important record in many ways, not least because it heralded synth pop's imminent commercial breakthrough.
My dear dad loved this. What a belter of a choon. Still got the single with Steve Strange on the cover. RIP dad, still mind the top 40 blasting out the house on a Sunday evening x
This song is more than the hymn of the new romantics. A close look allows us to understand the beginning of projects like Spandau Ballet, Duran Duran and Culture Club, to name a few. Globally, Visage will always be associated with a short, but genuinely creative movement.
the music of the 80s will be immortal forever, I don't know how many masterpieces there are in music but in the 80s there were a lot, this is only ONE 🙂
I loved visage and Steve strange. He was and still is a national treasure who changed the face of music as we know it. The best synth song of the 80s which still gives me goosebumps when I listen to it.
"Sent la pluie comme un été anglais". Is it raining in England in the summer time? Art of noise "to be in England in a summer time". English summer is magic? Brighton, Blackpool, hum, hum. In France, summer will become so warm lol. Really .
Such a beautiful song from the glorious 80's. The music from that era is actually more cutting edge and futuristic than the music of today.
so true. timeless perfect music.
You sound like a tool
YES ....!
It was in a different league 👏👏
Merci visage
The 80s was like being on a different planet it was that good.🚀🛸
Love this song. Listening 2022
👍👍👍👍👍
Yeah it was ❤
Brilliant when bros arrived
I’m still there , 😊😊😊

80 étais la meilleure époque...
born in 66 ! the same for me
Yo tambien nací en 1965,tuve la edad perfecta en la decada perfecta.
Ahorra son mierdas@@Pineforest65
Born in 68 ...
43 Years ago and still sound Futuristic. a real Masterpiece.
Well said I adore this song
Yes!
43 years after.... reminds me jean michael jarre
This song is timeless. Even after 40 years it's still an awesome song. (now I know why I love synthesizers that much :-) )
All my entertainment heroes are dying or are real old, the worst part about being in my 50s.
maybe they'd live on if they hadn't taken that many drugs?
yes! it's a kind of imprinting (the synths)
Me too. Got a studio full of analogue synths….;)
Still holds up 40 years later! RIP Steve Strange
Leute , das sind Lieder von damals und nicht der Dreck von heute. Einfach toll ❤️❤️👍👍😃😃
Es gibt heute genauso gute und schlechte Musik wie damals.
@@Kansoganix ja, aber die gute Musik steht heute leider nicht mehr im Vordergrund
Genauso is es!
@@Kansoganix naja, genauso....
Das ist ahnungslos.
@@ichbins8588 Das stand sie damals genauso wenig oder genauso viel. Und in den Jahrzehnten davor war es dasselbe.
Canzone immortale. Dopo 43 anni la si ascolta come fosse appena uscita.
Una delle più belle canzoni della mia infanzia
Steve Strange, Midge Ure, Billy Currie - nearly half a century on you created a timeless masterpiece.
Never Forget Chriss Payne.
@@nicholasbuttery511Ah yes, the unsung hero. Edit. I have just added a comment for people to go to Christopher Payne’s channel and here how this song came to life.
More futuristic than anything made in the next 40 years. Still sounds as good as the day it came out.
So true !
Bollocks.
You’ve clearly forgotten the first time you heard Blue Monday.
@@offbeat65
They get so carried away don’t they? 😊
@@deletebilderberg And songs like Don't Go, Sweet Dreams, Tainted Love and many others.
One of the best songs of the 80's !
Absolutely 👍

Thank you. I love poetry captured in the symphony of mysterious melody, captured from the recesses of a secret universe.
This song has it all.
Dual French-English lyrics concept reused by Kelly Osbourne for her song « One Word » ...
So true. In the last few years I have returned more to this foundational song than any other of the era.
Even in 2024 👊
How can this 43 years old time flies 😵💫😵💫😵💫
I still can't believe Steve has gone.. RIP Steve Strange..
The others who wrote this masterpiece are still alive...
@@Lazelwood ...what an odd comment!

@@AmberJan. ...and I believe some of the people who wrote this iconic song are still under-rated because their contribution is not so well known.

Bought this single, it was the second single I ever bought.
I have never tired of this song. Just incredible. RIP Mr Strange.
I understand you perfectly. 😉
И мне оччень нравится
Für mich einer der besten Songs aller Zeiten, dieser Song ist einfach absolute Weltklasse.
Ja..Ja und nochmals JA!
Wie recht du doch hast,und dann stirbt dieser Mann 😭👍🎀 RIP Steve Strange

Thanks for sharing, written by Midge Ure, Billy Currie & Chris Payne. Mr Strange, gone but never forgotten.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
True and well spoken!
Knew the family very well. R.I.P Steve Strange 💔🙏🙏
Dieser Song läuft bei mir heute noch öffters. Ist einfach geil das Lied.

no fcuking cellphones or social media made that era waaaaaaaaaay more fun
2024 and I can still listen to this song on a loop. Gives me goosebumps.
Yeeep, it brings goosebumps as well!

This British synth-vibe opened my eyes to great, great Music!

Theres something special about this track. Its of its time yet futuristic. Iconic.

Yep called talent!
Duran duran? Culture club????
Duran Duran were initially part of the new romantic movement and Boy George was a regular at the Blitz nightclub, where the scene began.
If anything, what you can hear here clearly is the Ultravox era of Vienna and Rage in Eden, for obvious reasons….
🙏😍
New Wave New Wave..
Que ces ANNÉES me manque tant !!!

He was and still is a national treasure who changed the face of music as we know it. The best synth song of the 80s which still gives me goosebumps when I listen to it.
So grateful, that I experienced all that fantastic sound and songs - dancing, clubs, etc.
Super Musik Video, und auch mein Lieblingssong.
This song and Gary Newman's "Cars"... and I knew the '80s would be something else!
This song changed everything.
Gänsehaut......... super Song 😊

RIP Steve, ist was a great Song!
Better than anything from the last 20 years
goosebumps...kinda happy & sad at the same time that I lived through such an incredible era of music.
Je me souviens très bien de ce titre en 1980. J'étais militaire en Allemagne et la musique permettait de m'évader un peu !
Vous aussi vous avez fait l armée.
Une époque désormais révolue . Quel dommage.😢
обожаю 80е годы!! ))))
masterpiece of pop
Das Lied Fade to Grey ist eines der Besten und Tollsten aus den 80 er Jahren. Ich hoere es immer wieder gern, oder schau mir das Video an.

"Sent la pluie comme un été anglais". Is it raining in England in the summer time? Art of noise "to be in England in a summer time". English summer is magic? Brighton, Blackpool, hum, hum.
In France, summer will become so warm lol. Really .
My favorite Visage song..... greetings of Peru...
Bellissima. 👍🏼❤️🎼❤️🌹🇮🇹
I was 13, when I heard this song for the first time, AND that's what made me what I became today
