Blancmange was pretty much THE group, along with Cabaret Voltaire, of the Chicago underground club scene of the early 80s, and I had the privilege of spinning their many epic grooves, including this, night after night.
I had this from the local library cassette section in 1982. The Happy Families album Loved it on my walks to school Later I bought Running thin on 7 inch with my first pay check from a old record store Blancmange inspired my writing and continually touches me in deep places . that commercial music will never satisfy.
Just watched faithless 2010 Glastonbury on iPlayer, bored shtless , great gig, all of sudden they bring this geezer on and I think, I know those lyrics from the deep past, turns out to be blamonge , then I remembered, what joy.
This song should of being on the Blade Runner soundtrack - 1982. What a trick missed. I think of Rutger Hauer and his countdown clock of tormenting non existence...
My name must be Phil minoo. Gust of wint should get up to 14 mile an hour this evening.watching this other jeeyerd forecast sun is dropping directly down into the the upper fourtys and trying to climb into the fiftys
Made some great stuff. However, went to see them live at Rock city, Nottingham and they were a crap live act. May as well have just played the albums at a billion decibels.

My fave song by Blancmange!! Sounds modern now even in 2023! This must have been so ahead of it's time in 1982!!
I´ve been discovered a few minutes ago and I´m very amazing. Fantastic song for that year, but in the eighties, everything was fantastic...

Absolutely true! Dream Ticket from Cavaret Voltaire was one of my hymns, as was Feel Me
What about the group FIneTribe,this sounds like Talking Heads.My favourite track from Cabaret Voltaire is Sensoria

Damn good! Where has all the fun gone?
To the one person who didn't like this .. SHAME ON YOU!!
They must of been fans of Ratt and Cinderella. 🤢
Production of 1982, but already equipped with both the sound and the most advanced style of 1984!
But also sounds like it could’ve been recorded yesterday. Such a great tune!
@@mani1mann You should also check the 2013 version of the song, from the album Happy Families Too.
What matters most ty Hernandon.
Totally underestimated band from the 80's. Always amazes me how few views for such a great band. The album second helpings is awesome.
I was this years 2022 80s remind ......you legend x
Just now realising where Time Zone sampled
If you would have told me this was a Talking Heads song..I'd have believed you.
Reminds me of Peppermint Place Nightclub Blackburn in the 1980,s
Not easy to make tasty blancmange, the art of cooking
