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:
Soldier is turning
See him through white light
Running from strangers
See you in the valley
War upon war
Heat upon heat
To cut a long story short
I lost my mind
Sitting on a park bench
Years away from fighting
To cut a long story short
I lost my mind
Standing in the dark
Oh I was waiting for man to come
I am beautiful and clean
And so very very young
To be standing in the street
To be taken by someone
Questions questions
Give me no answers
That's all they ever give me
Questions questions
Oh look at the strange boy
He finds it hard existing
To cut a long story short
I lost my mind

@NormanStansfield1
@NormanStansfield1 Год назад
Tony voice really crushes it here. Almost like the power of Steve Jones power chords in The Sex Pistols. In retrospect, many of Gary Kemp's songs were pretty average and without Tony's voice, they would be forgetful. Duran's Planet Earth and Ordinary World (lots of credit to Warren) were crackers of songs. Spandau's songs were okay by comparison. It is like a fairly crappy movie but you throw Gary Oldman or Tom Hardy in it and it is good. Tony did that for Spandau. Steve's sax playing also helped. One of their reunion new songs, Once More, that Steve wrote with I think Gary was one of their better songs. And again, Tony makes it great a great song. Hat tip here to John Keeble's drumming on this song and Martin's bass line.

We have a gas station by our house that consistently plays good music and I heard this while getting gas recently, recognized the voice but couldn't place the artist, so had to look it up, and have had it on repeat all week. Great song.

For me one of their very best songs it blew my mind when I first heard it way back in 1980

So this went to #5 on the British charts. American radio withheld a lot from us, we didn't get to hear this. Reminds me of Human League, which we did get.

No group had a sound quite like this. ABC, Pet Shop etc. had similarities and I like them too, but Spandau Ballet paid extra attention to the instrumentation and transitions.

Duran Duran were quite similar. Both had a similar sound, with the New Romantic look. They were hugely influenced by 70s/early 80s Roxy music as well.

They're great too, although a bit more on the rebel side, and less focus on classical format.

Magnificent new romantic epic. 1980,punk and post punk was dead, then along came the spandaus, the world was saved.

And this was their first ever single' To Cut a Long Story Short' it's my favourite. I always preferred the music of Spandau Ballet over Duran Duran. Yes, the music of the 80's was special. A great decade to be a teenage to be blessed with all that great music.
