hal david's lyric writing in this song is such a masterclass. has anyone ever effected a scene change with more economy, emotion, and grace than "shadows fall" at the top of verse 2? just astonishing writing 🥲

@hilljam@mastodon.social Sounding ace as ever, Both! This is the first #80sKids that totally passed me by at the time. Had to look it up, and it seemingly bombed over here unlike other places. I think the intro arrangement has quite a Madness feel about, which makes sense, given the era. @shannoncurtis@mastodon.social
