    Early Human League is the coolest music from this era as well as the image. Oakey’s haircut was a total one off and quite outrageous even now, makes his band mates look like Bank Clerks or something 👏😂

    The most influential "unknown" band. I saw them in the late 80s at the Bottom Line in New York and was AMAZED. I expected them to become super popular. Whoops, wrong again. Still, I hear so many new bands and think to myself, "Nice try, but Durutti Column did that better". BTW, how great is that drummer?!

    What a voice! What a phenomenal voice! Every era produces videos that looks funny out of time but listen to that voice and the song writing - absolutely phenomenal... And I think it helps if you know the story behind the song which was one of Billy's family telling him about a party where two teenage girls turned up who were so out of it and out of control that the whole party was scared of them. If you put that tension in the song or them catherine-wheeling out of control, you see it even better - that was the Party that feared two. I absolutely bloody love this song.
