      I especially liked 'Love and pride'. One of my faves. He is the King indeed. I think he has changed his hair since but still sounds the same.

    Level 42 is easily one of the best bands of all time, Mark King is such an impeccable bassist. How is he able to play such a complex bass riff, sing and dance? What an amazingly talented dude.

      Are you kiddin? They're slightly above average at best and the songs are poor. As for King playing complex bass riffs you're clearly not a bass player. There's nothing complex in what he does....he just slaps the strings quickly. Go watch Jaco Pastorius and be quiet.

    Is anyone else seeing that Mark is singing this and feeling every word as if he's been there? Every time I watch his passionate delivery it brings me to tears. So many layers to this song. The musical composition is astounding. The subtle chord changes, less is more etc. I want to love this song but it's so sad. If you've been there you know what I mean. But I can't stop listening to it. What an incredible voice he has and this must be Level 42's greatest song surely...

    I always feel guilty not dancing, not because i don’t like the tune. One of my most favourite songs ever. Gotta be top 10 ever. Would be on my dessert islands disc for certain. Mark slapping that base, and the groove to accompany him puts me in a trance. Then right at the last minute, 30 seconds before the tune ends, I’m like oh shit. Forgot to dance. Very powerful song to captivate me like that. They’ve been doing that to me for 35 years. I’m determined to dance to it one day and not listen to it so intently. Well done chaps.

  • @danielburges8176

    I'm not proud, I was wrong and the truth is hard to take
    I felt sure we had enough but our love went overboard
    Lifeboat lies lost at sea I've been trying to reach your shore
    Waves of doubt keep drowning me
    All the dreams that we were building
    We never fulfilled them
    Could be better, should be better
    For lessons in love
    For restless eyes, egos burn and the mold is hard to break
    Now we've waded in too deep and love is overboard
    Heavy hearts token words all the hopes I ever had
    Fade like footprints in the sand
    All the homes that we were building
    We never lived in
    Could be better, should be better
    Lessons in love
    If we lose the time before us
    The future will ignore us
    We should use it, we could use it, yeah
    Lessons in love
    Lost without love
    Lessons in love
    When will you ever learn
    Lessons in love
    When there's nowhere left to turn
    Lessons in love
    Don't let your spirit burn
    Lessons in love
    I'll wait 'till you return
    All the dreams that we were building
    (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
    We never lived them
    We could lose it, we should use it
    (Lessons in love)
    Lessons in love
    All the homes that we were building
    We never lived in
    Could be better
    (Could be better)
    Should be better
    (Yeah, yeah)
    Lessons in love
    If we lose the time before us
    The future will ignore us
    We should use it, we could use it
    (Good God)

    It's awesome watching Pete's gradual induction into the band. This gig was the first year he toured with them, and it's obvious that he's so focussed and clearly a little nervous. To be fair, the fantastic Phil Gould and incredible Gary Husband are huge boots to fill! Whereas nowadays you can tell he's a fully-initiated long-term bandmember who "knows the score", has zero fucks to give, and just does his thing and smashes it every time
