I'm 72 years old. Spandau Ballet was the last rock group I was excited about. I still love to listen to them today, 40 years later, and when I do I feel the same as I did back in 1983.

I echo every word of your post. 55 years old now and 41 years and counting a die hard Spandau Ballet fan since Gold was released in August 1983 and I’ve never looked back. As you do too, I also feel the same too listening to them today as I did aged 14.

@@RsR6969 I appreciate your response. Gold was the number that really grabbed me first. True is in a tie with it. What I like about SB is that while the music is very riveting it is also very beautiful. The melodies are sophisticated and memorable so one can carry the music in their memory and hum it or sing it. My requirement of music is that it be melodic. Much of what is considered pop music today is not melodic. I mean how are you supposed to hum a rap song? By imitating a dog barking, I suppose.

@@ReggieJohnAgain We are so like minded. Without Gold, I would not have become the fan I have been for these last 41 years but I can’t choose which of True or Gold is my all time favourite song. So it’s a dead heat for me too! Agree totally with you. The music that influenced us as teenagers or in our younger years stays with us through the decades and stands the test of time as the body of work from Spandau Ballet has and will continue to. The 80s was a great decade for music and I’d stick my neck out and say the best. Others are welcome to disagree.

@@RsR6969 I agree totally about the 80’s music. Since I’m older my young music years were in the late 60’s and 70’s. I liked some of the psychedelic music then. My great love from that time was Janis Joplin, and that introduced me to vintage blues. I’m sure Janis being from Texas and being a weirdo in a small town like I was on both counts had some bearing on my attraction to her. I got hooked on Billie Holiday through Janis and owned about 50 of her LP’s.

Tony Hadley has the most beautiful voice. This band is so talented. I grew up buying their albums. They're a timeless band that I will forever love and admire.

No doubt.

In 1984 I was 24🎉

Ah, the 80's... best decade of my life. And you guys were the cherry on top. Thanks for all the great songs, you will always have a place in my heart.

Gary Kemp, you wrote beautiful songs. Every band member in this spectacular band is extremely talented. You guys lived out of your suitcase when you were touring. A lot of jet lag and hard work. I love you guys.

Feeling 19 years old again, My favorite band. Such a pity they will never perform together again

Love british new wave scenes in 80's love spamdau ballet

84'" was a great year i miss it i was 21 during the time this concert played

Spandau Ballet ❤️ in 2024 from Italy.

They were amazing 🎶🎶🎶

Thank you Spandau Ballet for all your music 🎶

time fly ´84 feel like yesterday

Between George and Freddy is Tony`´s voice my favorite!

The golden age pop-rock. ."I known this always true"🎶🎇✨🎆

Spandau Ballet was amazing i liked them equally with Duran Duran actually

In 1984, I was 7. I was listening to my cousin's cassettes on my walkman and in my dad's Ford custom 500 while driving to the beach. Great memories.

Real music.

Great looking guys.

Spandau Ballet began their Parade World Tour in Japan, and after selling out 5 nights in Tokyo, flew into Germany on Wednesday 21st November 1984 and went straight from the airport to a sold-out Dortmund Westfalenhalle Arena to perform a blistering set as co-headliners with U2 for German TV show Rockpop In Concert. This concert was first broadcast in January 1985. Fantastici Spandau Ballet, eterni ❤️ Italy.

Thanks for this detailed information 🌟🙏 about this band whom,I ve cherished so much although they were underrated in France and soon to be forgotten contrary to The Cure, Depeche Mode , Duran Duran. Tony s voice remains extraordinary 💡🎆 Nostalgia is creeping. Bye bye from France

li amavo tantissimo, erano la mia band in assoluto, ho avuto la fortuna di vederli dal vivo. siete ancora il Top P.S. tutti bellissimi

Adore Spandau..still going to see Tony Hadley every chance I get💖80s best decade ever 🌟

Spandau Ballet, we love you!! 😊👍

No doubt one of the best bands of the 80's. You can't go wrong with any song. Important archival material back at hand (or eyes, that is :) 5 thumbs up. I wonder why the band split or Tony Hadley didn't go on touring or toured again with them. Surely, I must be the only one who doesn't know here :) BTW Thank you SPANDAU BALLET for one of the most amazing ballads of the 80's THROUGH THE BARRICADES. It sounds as it just came out every time I hear it. Giant song-writing skills that I do not hear too often these days. Could it be I'm 64 already? I was lucky to work for Concierto Fm in Santiago, Chile back in 1983-1988 when we had a deal with the BBC transcription services and received several IN CONCERT PROGRAMME vinyl records and later cds with the amazing shows of the creme-de-la creme of Brit-Pop. Bravo.

Tony left because he wanted to have a saying in things too. In Spandau there wasn‘t much democracy, it was always Gary who decided what, how and when they played or recorded. Tony had enough of that.

I know each and every track they played, that's amazing! I can still sing, along to many of them, I still remember by heart the lyrics even though I haven't listened to them for years. It really is the music of my era. The Spands really are a great band and live act.

I was here 10! And I loved they guys!

Great big Shout out from Seattle. . ...

and, suddenly, just like that, i am 25 again.

That‘s what Tony thought too; life is too short to spend it with people who don‘t respect you. In his own band there‘s democracy, and every member is respected by the others. Garry always treated Tony as an employee.

I like Spandau Ballet!!! Aber die Band ist leider total zerstritten!!! Warum??? ❤❤❤😂!!! Es geht ums Geld!!! I am Michael Matthias Frohn Mühlstroh und Jesus Christus!!! Overwehlming und Wunderschön und Wunderbar!!! Make my day!!! Buy me!!! Do Something good for me!!! ❤❤❤😂!!! Thank you for this Concert and the Performance!!! So nice!!! ❤😂❤❤!!!

the two guitarists on stage over estimated there worth to the band and could never take that they played second fiddle to Tony.
