Hi mjdia, thanks for the lovely reply, and yes i think we are very lucky to have lived through the 80's and have so many great memories of that time :o) let's go back! lol! and BTW your English is perfect xx
OKAY to all you Billy haters out there: HE LOOKS fabulous he has very nice dance moves and I love his shirt it looks like a fancy carpet and him singing along is adorable. BILLY CURRIE SHOULD DANCE!!!
how amazing is this Midge LIVE at his best and Billy"s Electronic Sound aka " Fade to Grey " .........? Best time in my life as an 13 year old Teenager....? ( 1981/82/83 ) Todays music gone backwards because there is no competition any more as it was 35 Years ago ......? I'm 51 now
definitely, i didn't mean no disrespect to Ed, he is such a good actor and cute in his own way. but Midge is definitely a legend, he should be given a knighthood for all the work and talent he has done. long live our Midge!!
I thought he only wore those boots in the 'Call of the Wild' clip coz he was, you know, outdoors and stuff! But they seem to pop up whenever he's indoors also! He's sooo hot....I'm so sad I can't make the reunion tour. Alas it's only in the UK :(
They did an interview on this programme to promote "We Came To Dance" as it was there new single. I bought my copy from Boots on the same day as this programme went out. Does anyone have that interview, and can they upload it?
***** They were one of the greatest band of the 80's. Fantastic songs. The following 4 albums are all master pieces: Vienna (80), Rage in Eden (81), Quartet (82) and Lament (84). Don't mind the album U-Vox (86), it's not very good. The band started already in the mid 70's as Ultravox! and had another lead singer, John Foxx. That version of the band released 3 albums + a compilation album, but they have a different sound and style; more punk'ish. John Foxx left in 79 for a solo career, and he has made several great albums, including the dark analog synth master piece Metamatic (80). It's one of my all time fav albums. Check out the song Underpass.
I'm such a sucker for music like this yet I've never heard them before! I'm glad I found them though and thank you so much for the recommendations, I will be listening to them when I have the opportunity😊
The 80s were great and so was this music which I all had on import vinyl, 7, 12 inch singles and full length Lps. But the warehouse where i had all of my records burnt down and all my music was immersed in foul odorous water and mold. Things are not so good now. My neck hurts and my prostate has been known to act up.
Great Song by a very underrated Band!!! Midge is the type of new waver (back then) that I would have been like, on the conservative side without sporting makeup.
cmon Guys this is not Edward norten ....? This is Sir Midge Ure....? Edward Norten is the Leadsinger from Spandau Ballet singing " True " ????? Just check out " Modern Family " Episode.....ha ha ha....
Edward Norton my arse! Midge is much better looking than Ed. And wtf is Billy Currie wearing? lol! It's so fucking great looking back at these old vids, makes me feel old myself!
I think this is live voice against recorded instruments. It's too close to the original recording, and at 3.30, Warren (drummer) misses a few beats. I know they used drum machines as well. Billy Curry really shouldn't dance!
Personally I don't get the issue with Foxx.. My first album with U-vox was the Lament album when it was released.. Loved them since. Don't care to much about the music pre-Ure.
Midge has a beautiful voice. But I just can't listen to ultravox music. It's way too basic for my taste. On the other hand, Billy Currie was perfect for Tangerine Dream. He would have been great with them. His solo albums were beautiful.
wowwww sure your not an Ultravox Fan & you dont like Electronic Music Ultravox Did since late 70s...???? My Mate is not an huge Ultravox Fan but he always tells me " We came to Dance " is his Fav.Ultravox tune...???? There are slightly Diffrent Version the 7 inch Single -12 inch ext.Single...
Each member of Ultravox a legend, but Billy Currie's talent with keyboards is amazing
Mi favorita cancion de Ultravox ................................. saludos de Peru 💋💋💋💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹💥😎✔👍...

Absolutamente geniales, toda mi vida siguiendoles y van 32 años........

Ultravox One My Favorite Groups from the Fabulous 80's.

These guys know their way round a keyboard for sure!🎹
Wow, imagine turn on the TV a Saturday morning and hear this! But those days are gone, forever.
От этого голоса, этой музыки ...седце учащенно бьется..
Супер.
Super band Ultravox 😊
Uno de mis grupos preferidos que aún sigo escuchando. Un gran grupo.

Jaime perez, did you hear this song on WLIR? I saw the documentary on that radio station from Long Island 🌴
Sign of times!
So many memories with Ultravox and other 80´s synt groups.
Sum: It was better then :(
I love this song and Midge! ❤️❤️❤️
You're obsessed with those boots :) Those jeans are pretty nice tho!
Great still amazing song. I like it more now than I did back then.

Happy Birthday to Warren Cann. He turns 65 today.

+Robert Ahlquist
you are obviously as big fan as me! nice one😎
for "dulcis in fundo" ;)
Good Grief, I feel old! Ultravox were of my time and one of my favourite bands.
The 80s were great and so was this music which I all had on import vinyl, 7, 12 inch singles and full length Lps. But the warehouse where i had all of my records burnt down and all my music was immersed in foul odorous water and mold. Things are not so good now. My neck hurts and my prostate has been known to act up.
@tundra219 yes the lead singer of the messagers. i thought he looked familiar.
Great Song by a very underrated Band!!! Midge is the type of new waver (back then) that I would have been like, on the conservative side without sporting makeup.
Check the earlier promo shots around the Vienna era. Midge and the boys did wear some eyeliner and cheek blush!
Daniel Marquis he wore makeup, whole band did
@cedricfonk Either Colin or Danny of The Messengers, band who sometimes sang backup for Uvox on tour
I respect Midge Ure's humanitarian work. But my band is definitely Talk Talk ❤
GREAT CHOON!-Just noticed Jim Kerr from Simple Minds on keyboards-New to me!
fantastic
Quiz time: Name the six members of the post-Foxx band Ultravox
True great music from high shelf:)
HECK yeah...I love Midges boots!!! And I love his jeans as well...:-)
Like this song a lot
love that song..
cmon Guys this is not Edward norten ....? This is Sir Midge Ure....? Edward Norten is the Leadsinger from Spandau Ballet singing " True " ????? Just check out " Modern Family " Episode.....ha ha ha....
Wokalistą Spandau Ballet jest Tony Hadlley.Pozdrawiam❤😊😊
love it!
I haven't thought about altravox since the eightys . They were good. Better than most of the music from that time.
I see midge has got his backing singer wearing wellies too lols
oh man,look how skinny was billy currie back then
Yep. But still do- able. He was cute back then.
zawsze to uwielbiałem :)
I love the haircut of the drummer
-great-
great keyboards&drumms sounds
why not at these times
it was only at 80´s
5*****
see Ya Thursday Mitch Ure at the Coachouse OC 2017 and still killing it, it will be a blessing
Записано в 1983 году в субботу по телевизору с утреннего шоу ( где то на западе....).
Textbook example of drummer making full use of his hair...
OOOOhhh..Midge is wearing those boots again..hubba hubba..my sweet, sexy SIR Midge!!!xxx
yes, we came...
Every single thing about Midge Ure is SEXY
Oh, the 80's...
I live for Warren's hairstyle
pure class.
love their ppg wave also
It is 29 years ago!!
Great song !
classic !!!
Did John Foxx write this just before he left??????....very much in his style!
Making such music on stage... just like today!!! LOL
What IS going on here? Where's Chris? Who is the backing singer? Why is Jim Kerr on keyboards?
The extra band members are 'The Messengers'.
Ultravox with Midge is better...?
Nice
@InSynthesis: he had no microphone...
Mic feedback at :46. :)
it can't handle his voice
lol
Edward Norton my arse! Midge is much better looking than Ed. And wtf is Billy Currie wearing? lol! It's so fucking great looking back at these old vids, makes me feel old myself!
Midge was gorgous
popmusic at its best
I think this is live voice against recorded instruments. It's too close to the original recording, and at 3.30, Warren (drummer) misses a few beats. I know they used drum machines as well.
Billy Curry really shouldn't dance!
Personally I don't get the issue with Foxx.. My first album with U-vox was the Lament album when it was released.. Loved them since. Don't care to much about the music pre-Ure.
Wow, who's he at 1:52?
Cudo...
I think you mean Midge...
evil chelsea smile.. you dont know what you were missing
Who is the cute guy @ 1' 54"???
billy curry, i've seen more meat on a butches pencil. great band!!!
ppg wave
what vexes me about this is that he's not really dancing.
I think its great that they got Shakin Stevens to perform on the drums!
Billy Currie (keyboards)really shouldn't dance!
Midge has a beautiful voice. But I just can't listen to ultravox music. It's way too basic for my taste. On the other hand, Billy Currie was perfect for Tangerine Dream. He would have been great with them. His solo albums were beautiful.
Music is fantastic, but Billy Curries Shirt is soooooo uglyyyyyy!
;-)
absolut geile nummer - funking awful!
Most boring Ultravox single ever.
I still have no clue how this could have been chosen as a single release.
wowwww sure your not an Ultravox Fan & you dont like Electronic Music Ultravox Did since late 70s...???? My Mate is not an huge Ultravox Fan but he always tells me " We came to Dance " is his Fav.Ultravox tune...???? There are slightly Diffrent Version the 7 inch Single -12 inch ext.Single...
My second fav Uvox song.
Ultravox with John was better.
ultravox with midge ure"s Voice was much much better...
