the person with the scythe is Daniel Miller, then head of Mute records

That, this and Time (Clock of the Heart) are their masterpieces.

It's hard to comprehend now, with all the different people that have been on tv over the last 34 years, but this really was such a big thing back then...!

think he did a lot with Fad Gadget at that time too?
Hard To Say I'm Sorry is probably my favourite power ballad of the 1980s. I prefer it to the likes of Power of Love by Jennifer Rush.
