  • Official HD video of Spandau Ballet performing 'Only When You Leave', released as the first single from their fourth album 'Parade'.
    40 Years - The Greatest Hits out now @ lnk.to/SpandauBallet-GH40
    Spandau Ballet are one of Britain’s great iconic bands having sold over 25 million records, scored numerous multi-platinum albums and amassed 23 hit singles across the globe since their humble beginnings as a group of friends with dreams of stardom in the late 1970s. It wasn’t long before they became fully-fledged members of the iconic Blitz Club scene and established themselves as one of the super-groups of the 80s.
    The band's classic line-up features brothers Gary and Martin Kemp on guitars, vocalist Tony Hadley, saxophonist Steve Norman and drummer John Keeble.
    Spandau Ballet’s hits include Gold, True, To Cut A Long Story Short, Through The Barricades and many more.

    Lyrics:
    Layin' in the afterglow
    I only want to learn what you know
    But now you're leavin'
    How many hearts must you break?
    Well how many calls must I make?
    But now you're leavin'
    In this world all that I choose has come unbearable
    But love is in your touch
    It's killing me so much
    Only when you leave
    I'll need to love you
    And when the action has all gone
    I'm just a little fool enough to need you
    A fool enough too long
    Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger
    I'll make sure that you pay
    So give a little passion to a stranger
    And take this soul away
    I only want to make this things last
    So how could this have gone so fast
    And now you're leavin'
    How many times must I learn
    It's only when you've gone that I burn
    And now you're leavin'
    In the end, all that is left has come unbearable
    It's hard to change your mind
    So leave it all behind
    Only when you leave
    I'll need to love you
    And when the action has all gone
    I'm just a little fool enough to need you
    A fool enough too long
    Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger
    I'll make sure that you pay
    So give a little passion to a stranger
    And take this soul away
    Layin' in the afterglow
    I only want to learn what you know
    But now you're leavin'
    How many hearts must you break?
    Well how many calls must I make?
    But now you're leavin'
    In this world all that I choose has come unbearable
    But love is in your touch
    It's killing me so much
    Only when you leave
    I'll need to love you
    And when the action has all gone
    I'm just a little fool enough to need you
    A fool enough too long
    Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger
    I'll make sure that you pay
    So give a little passion to a stranger
    And take this soul away

    I saw them live in Sydney supported by Tears for Fears for their 25th anniversary concert in Australia, wow what a great night that was! Both bands were sensational live! Tony Hadley said “then we were boys, now we’re men!”, his voice was just as good if not better now that they had matured - like a great bottle of wine!! It took me back to the ‘80s in my mid teens. Tears opened with ‘Mad World’ and Spandau opened with ‘To Cut a Long Story Short’ - magic night!

    Today I look back on 1984 and wish for those long gone fun loving friends and experiences that make the 1980's truly The Decade that made us.

Sometimes very loudly and he was very happy while listening and singing to it. That was the pure feeling of freedom at the age of 20. He died last year at the age of 48. This song is now a very powerfull and emotional song for me. Farewell my friend, the music will always keep us together

    How many hearts must you break?
    How many calls must I make?
    But now you're leaving...
    In this world, all that I choose has come unbearable
    But love is in your touch
    Ooh, it's killing me so much
    Only when you leave
    I need to love you
    And when the action has all gone
    I'm just a little fool enough to need you
    Fool enough too long
    Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger
    Oh, I'll make sure that you pay
    So give a little passion to a stranger
    And take this soul away
    I only want to make this things last,
    So how could this have gone so fast?
    And now you're leaving...
    How many times must I learn?
    It' s only when you've gone that I burn,
    And now you're leaving...
    In the end, all that I left has come unbearable
    It's hard to change your mind,
    So leave it all behind
    Only when you leave
    I need to love you
    And when the action has all gone
    I'm just a little fool enough to need you
    Fool enough too long
