I was only 16, in France, they were an underrated band, despite the rumours, the diamant voice of the singer could go on and on during a whole concert, no fake, pure talent. Still fascinated by his solo albums

I've recently listened again to Spandau (earliest was during my childhood in the 2000s, my Mom loved True so much). I have to say Tony deserves more spotlight!!! His vocal range is massive, clear & he has great control over it! He mentioned he has a good work ethic, so I was thinking he's very disciplined on taking care of his voice. Such a true artist. 🥰 P.S. sorry for any grammatical errors, English is not my native language.

This kind of music was never really my thing but this song was an exception. Love the bass and keyboards, great lyrics and well sung. You can tell Tony has been trained to hold back a little and protect his voice which is why he can still sing today when most singers of his age lost it years ago.

"Only When You Leave" Laying in the after glow, I only want to learn what you know, But now you're leaving... How many hearts must you break? How many calls must I make? But now you're leaving... In this world, all that I choose has come unbearable But love is in your touch Ooh, it's killing me so much Only when you leave I need to love you And when the action has all gone I'm just a little fool enough to need you Fool enough too long Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger Oh, I'll make sure that you pay So give a little passion to a stranger And take this soul away I only want to make this things last, So how could this have gone so fast? And now you're leaving... How many times must I learn? It' s only when you've gone that I burn, And now you're leaving... In the end, all that I left has come unbearable It's hard to change your mind, So leave it all behind Only when you leave I need to love you And when the action has all gone I'm just a little fool enough to need you Fool enough too long Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger Oh, I'll make sure that you pay So give a little passion to a stranger And take this soul away
