You kids have got to stop saying 'underrated' when what you mean is that not many of your friends have heard of XXXX. Those of us were there at the time have never 'underrated' the Furs, although a lot of us got bored with them after the first two albums and they went all LA/AOR/MOR.

I can't believe how nobody is talking about how this music video is just one continuous take! Absolutely no film edits or splices what so ever! One take guys that's all you get! I wonder how many times that they had to film this to get it right! AMAZING SONG and a wonderful video to accompany it!

Every time I discover a new psychedelic furs song I have to listen to it again and again. They´re so addictive, and the videos are divine.

Still great after thirty years, plus. The Furs are Romantic and Rockers. Beautiful.

How on earth did everyone learn to dance like that in the 80s , and suddenly stopped doing it when the decade was over?

"I see a face in your eyes but you dont remember my name".. crazy, this song came out when I broke up with my 1st real love, and the lyrics spelled out how I felt at that time thinking forward and now it is so true thinking back.

Richard Butler, what a wonderful performer! And so magnetic.

The Furs are one of a kind and there will not be another band that will capture the spirit that they have captured since their start.

I'm glad I've gotten to see Live. Grew up with them. Still remember Thier first vid on MTV. Lol

I saw them and The Call around 88 (long time ago). Was a scene from 80 pretty in pinkish movie. Went with a bunch of friends. LoL ended up hugging up on a very attractive young lady. An ex gf was with group who was not very happy. Good times.

Love this song!! Gives you that thing you do on your own in your car...(singing it in your Bowie style/all moody with yet a cool thrown...a bit like you do whilst singing a Numan song)... Love it!!!!

Just ordered this album on vinyl today great music

great lyrics! "There's too many tears but angels don't cry"

I love their purposeful paradoxes in their songs and videos. The Furs are both Light & Dark at the very same time. Both up and down, left and right. The video almost doesn't match this song but it was meant to be that way. It gives us a sense of irony and sarcasm, to convey the dismay.

When songs had meaning. And you could feel the soul of the artist being projected through their music.

West Springfield been got it during 2004. One of their best albums even Richard Butler hated it.

Probably the best 80s song that nobody knows

When I first heard this song from the psychedelic furs I thought to myself this is truly new wave love ballad not to mention that the lyrics itself seemly fits the whole music perfectly The psychedelic furs was one of my most favorite 80s band back then This song has so emotional truths to it from the steady but changing of the bass line To the guitars that sings the front melodies Angel's don't cry Is a new wave love song classic from the 80s

ONCE, "oso", my beloved late young son, told me after one of those terrible chemotherapy sessions: "you know dad?, i think that when all of this ends, i would like to fly away to that beach you took us for vacations and maybe ,stay there for a week or so , so you and mom could rest ,AND THEN,say goodbye to ross(his twin sister) and show her the place, ...there we will run and play like we used to ,...dad, dont´cry, i know ANGELS DON´T CRY.... ME AN ANGEL?? LOVEyou babe, i will see you soon !!

This is such an odd video in The Psychedelic Furs' history. 1987 was the Furs' commercial zenith in the US, with "Heartbreak Beat" their first & only US Billboard Top 30 hit, and the "Midnight To Might" album their highest charting US album. The videos for "Heartbreak Beat" (film-noirish black & white) and "Shock' (lurid color) were shot with hand-held cameras, and offered up lots of neon lights, women dancing, night life imagery... seemingly somewhat inspired by Duran Duran's "Notorious" video the year before. But this video is a strange creature... a carefully choreographed single take, it presents the P-Furs at their most "Vegas" moment. Not grainy and filled with quick edits like the previous two, this is a well-lit crystal clear video chock full of every Richard Butler move and mannerism he would continue to use through 2015. Even his brother is missing his trademark shades and has a mullet! The song is the one ballad on an otherwise heavy-handed dance/rock album. Butler's unique way with words escapes clear meaning as usual, but I've always found this song strangely moving, despite the over-the-top sax solo, or maybe it's more because of it. So I find this video somewhat embarrassing for them, but despite that, I still find it fascinating to watch. I imagine Butler was horrified by it just months later, if not sooner. Watch their subsequent video for "House" in 1989 and you'll see far away they ran from this.

I remember this was when I went off of the Psychedelic Furs-I felt they had become yet another band that had made it to the bland mainstream, which meant that whatever had made them great in the first place was gone and had been replaced with slick sterility (the warning sign, for me, had been the re-recording of 'Pretty In Pink' for the John Hughes film). I even purposely did not catch them on their Midnight To Midnight tour. It wasn't until World Outside that I bought another one of their albums (though I did buy their great 'All That Money Wants' single).

One of the best bands EVER!Love me some Richard Butler❤❤❤.Just saw them for the 3rd time

Let those who have ears, HEAR the WORDS.... lyrics. Ahhhh, the 70' - 90's music was so "enchanting". Feel good vibes. While listening to 80s music, ever thought to yourself "What are they talking about?" . The imagery, the strange "Hollywood " look, androgynous vibes, mysterious gazes.... ALL of it has to do with hidden meanings in PARABLE form. (Mark 4:9-13) Amen.... glad I can hear and see.

These guys were / are amazing, the album Midnight to Midnight was a revelation start to finish...I realize how hard it is to drop down cross legged & rise up like Richard does, amazing strength needed!...One of the few bands I can listen to all day, wow the 80's were the best!

I might fade away tonight, If you close your eyes...

Great bassline and Richard’s dance is always very melancholic

....Rep looks spookily like Molly Ringwald in this video.... a million smiles (for one of your miles) away from Beatiful Chaos...

Why this song was not a huge hit baffles me. Great lyrics, great melody, and that voice.

Saw them tonight. Meltdown, South Bank , London. Curated by Robert Smith, the Cure. From 1st track, first album, to this , excellent, only older. Crowd went ballistic from song 3, although its theoretically a seated venue. Angels are clearly watching over them ...

Great camera work

shot in one take...no edits or cuts
