(Keep feeling) Fascination – Human League

Anyone here like the Human League?

Seriously, B and I were driving home from my Mom’s and listening to the 80s channel on XM radio in our car when “(Keep Feeling) Fascination” by Human League came on. It’s one of my favorite Human League songs (not that there are many), and yet one I frequently forget all about. As it turns out, it was a huge hit tonight, prompting an impromptu karaoke session right there on Route 81! I am still thinking about it and it’s still in my head and it was an hour and a half ago now. Damn that Human League!

If it seems a little time is needed
Decisions to be made
The good advice of friends unheeded
The best of plans mislaid

Just looking for a new direction
In an old familiar way
The forming of a new connection
To study or to play

And so the conversation turned
Until the sun went down
And many fantasies were learned
On that day

Keep feeling fascination
Passion burning
Love so strong
Keep feeling fascination
Looking learning
Moving on

Well the truth may need some
Re-arranging
Stories to be told
And plain to see the facts are changing
No meaning left to hold

And so the conversation turned
Until the sun went down
And many fantasies were learned
On that day

And so the conversation turned
Until the sun went down
And many fantasies were learned
On that day

Why Do I Find It Hard To Write The Next Line?

I want the truth to be told:

According to Stuck In The 80s (who cites Spandau Ballet’’s official website), today is the 25th anniversary of the release of the Spandau Ballet song, “True” and they (Spandau Ballet – how many times can I write it in one post?) digitally re-released the song today to mark the anniversary. As if that weren’t enough, they’ve also included 3 more versions of the song and 1 version of some other hit they had. And (try to control yourselves) a CD/DVD career compilation is coming this summer!

I’m all for the return of just about anything 80s, but 4 versions of “True”? Is this necessary?
