This sounds like an upbeat love song, but it's more apocalyptic than you might expect. With lyrics about "the world crashing all around your face" and "a pilgrimage to save this human's race," it really does take place with the world about to end, and the melting is quite literal. Modern English lead singer Robbie Grey, who wrote the song with his four bandmates, explained: "I don't think many people realized it was about a couple making love as the bomb dropped. As they made love, they become one and melt together."

Some time ago while on a walk with my Late wife in a back country mountain road in the Mountains of Santa Cruz, a breeze came up and disturbed a bunch of blossoms from a tree near by. Surrounded by falling pedals I took her into my arms and with no words, just a kiss, told her how much I loved her. The road disappeared, the warmth of the sun faded to nothing, My concentration was totally on her. I lost all my 5 senses of my surroundings. Literally I knew nothing but her in my arms. All I knew was her as she filled every part of me. Time seemed to have stopped as what I felt what was part of what I was, touched what she was. she Filled me with her soul. The World stopped and I melted with her. We parted lips after an unknown time and she said "Wow !" . After kissing for 20 years, she said "Wow !" No matter how many times I've tried to repeat it, I have not been successful with that touching who she was. She passed away from Cancer in 2009. the only girl/woman I have ever dated or kissed, I married. No Regrets. When I pass, I will ask God for that moment back.

This was one of the best new wave punk love songs ever. I remember when it first came out in the early '80s. Song and video was really big on the radio and MTV here in the US. It was something very different, catchy, fun and new. A lot of music from that genre was. People still requested this song a lot into the '90s and '00s on the radio stations on love song nights lol Reminds me of going to skating rinks back when I was a kid.

When you are listening to this song, you have to consider that you are hearing it almost 40 years after the fact, this was a very unique sound at the time, and was THE love song for a time for the new wave/alternative rock crowd. So much that you have heard that came later, owes their sound to this early 80s music which broke the mold. The 1983 movie Valley Girl was Nicholas Cage's breakout role, which had this song on the soundtrack, and was one of the first 80s teen movies, I believe Fast Times at Ridgemont High might have been the first big one, then came the John Hughes movies in the mid 80s. From your perspective 40 years later, this may seem nice & unremarkable, but at the time, it was anything but.

The importance of this song is the moment in time it represents. At this point in New Wave we felt like we were listening to future music, it was edgy disruptive pop, it was pop stripped of the sounds of the 70s or the 60s. We knew we were writing the recipe for a new era in music and fashion, it was sooooo different from the music previous and synthesizers and computers were bursting into the world of music finally on a big scale and that was the future...

It’s a happy sounding song with a deeply depressed anxiety filled core. That really is the heart of what it was to live in the early and mid-80s and a lot of cheerful 80s pop is subversive like this. The entire upbeat pastel aesthetic of the decade was a distraction from the constant underlying existential dread caused by the US and USSR’s last round of threatening rhetoric. The Morning After (a mini-series about people trying to cope in the aftermath of a nuclear war) was on the minds of the public around then. Reagan’s Evil Empire speech. The USSR going through a new leader every year for a while. It was the last big period of Cold War paranoia. Everyone old enough to understand the reality of the situation had this deep dark anxiety they tried to ignore on a daily basis. Folks under 45 today seem to just remember the cheerful 80s veneer. The decade partied like it was the end of the world because in the back of our minds, it really felt like it could be. The risk of nuclear war was the highest it had been since the Cuban missile crisis and the pop music sounded like bubblegum pop. As the Cold War wound down, the baseline tension dropped and popular music grew increasingly introspective and brooding, not because the world felt grimmer but because the population was letting go of the deep fears and simply tolerated open darkness in their art better. People seem to forget just how big the shadow of the bomb really was. It’s why there’s a grim almost fatalistic undercurrent in much of the better art from the 80s.

Love me some Modern English! Melt With You (A dark love song) was probably their biggest hit, the following albums were more progressive and although great, didn't get much radio play. Hands Across The Sea is another great tune from them. Richard Brown rocks on the drums, especially on subsequent albums, he supposedly learned drums by listening to Rush albums and emulating Neil Peart. Nice reaction couch gang. I've been groovin' on the 80's Mod & New Wave stuff you've been reacting to, but am having withdrawals due to no MetaLex. 😁

This song is from "Valley Girl," which was something quintessential to the vibe of the time. I love this song so much. It's makes me so joyful whenever I hear it.

I can't recall the last time I'd heard this, but it's been a good 22 plus years, and even back then it was just catching it by chance maybe a couple of times a year. However, I was hearing this all the time on the radio growing up in the 80's. As the song was approaching the first slow down segment, I remembered there being the humming in there.. but nope, wasn't in the first slow down, it was the one after it. Pretty nutty that a random song that you used to hear on the regular growing up over 30 years ago, and that knowing there's that little bit of humming in there, can be embedded in the brain all these years later ;-)

This is one of the biggest one hit wonders of all time. It was featured in the 80’s movie Valley Girl with a young Nick Cage.

The 80's were a pretty dark time. Most songs were an escape from living in a perpetual state of "2 minutes to midnight."

Brad's face when Lex and Bert start talking about swedish fish and mint ice cream. Hilarious.

THE 80s song. Your brother is an Awesome addition and he nailed this song. This song, as most 80s songs were for younger people breaking away from the harder rock sounds. I was 19 when this song came out.

One of my all time favorite songs. After listening caused me to dig and find other great songs from this era and others.

Thank you. Love this song. This was a great song to dance to back in the day....one hand in your pocket. It got imprinted in my brain forever thanks to the movie Valley Girl, which you should check out if you haven't. Lots of good songs in that.

This song was so huge! One of the best things about 80s music, we had so many popular genres, all with good music, and all at the same time! So much variety and quality, we didn't know it was an anomaly and wouldn't last

Lex had a great reaction. When i first heard this song back in 83, I thought it was the greatest romantic song. Especially hearing it for the first time at a high-school dance.

Lex has the best feel for music. It's not meant to be rational, but how it makes you feel. Love it.

At this point, when Lex says something as out there as a song feels like you're eating swedish fish, I get it. Somehow it makes sense. And then the bit about the world stops spinning so the sun melts you. She's smarter than I.

I get what lex is saying. Reminds you of high school. Leaning on a wall chewing gum waiting for you girl. Having seen one of the biggest bands of the 80s and early 90s on here yet. Where is REM?
